Witnessing a mother nurture twins within her, followed by the birth of two infants, is a truly awe-inspiring experience. Contemplating the presence of two tiny babies residing within their mother, sharing a womb, and forming a connection well before they come into this world fills me with an overwhelming sense of wonder.
We asked our talented Birth Becomes Her photographers to share some of their cherished twin images with us, and here are the ones that I (Monet) find most captivating. Get ready to be amazed!
All I can say is WOW! This photograph provides a perfect window into the womb, offering a glimpse of their life before they enter the world. It’s amazing, astounding, and simply AH-mazing. Captured by Kimberlin Gray Photography.
I love this moment. The mother labors with Baby B while cradling Baby A in her arms. I wish more healthcare providers would patiently wait for mothers to deliver vaginally. This photo, along with the stunning image of both babies together after birth, was taken by Aly Renee Photography.
