The Cesarean Birth of Eleanor
These images show how much love and joy was in the room when baby Eleanor was born. She came out with a lusty cry and a completely bald head (how adorable, right?) They depict a story of family, of courage, of birth. And each time I attend a cesarean birth, I’m so grateful I’m invited back into these operating rooms to tell these stories. They are so worth capturing and remember and celebrating.

Birth Story | Patty's Redemptive VBAC at UCH
“The entire birthing journey with Nora was a personal redemption story. My intent with her birth was not to replace my first birth, as traumatic as it was, but rather to complement it.

There is no experience in the world quite like giving birth and the experience has shaped me into the person I am today.”
