“ I might have to wait, I'll never give up
I guess it's half timing and the other half's luck
Wherever you are, whenever it's right
You'll come out of nowhere and into my life

And I know that we can be so amazing
And baby, your love is gonna change me
And now I can see every possibility

And somehow, I know that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out
And promise you, kid, I'll give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet”

~ Michael Bublé

Lindsey’s Note: Capturing and sharing birth moments through photography goes a long way toward showing other families what birth *really* looks like in various scenarios. Choosing to share your images publicly is never required, but I'm always thrilled to give a platform to your story in a way that can help normalize what all variations of real birth look like. This family has been so gracious to allow me to share a selection of their images to help normalize a variety of birth locations, circumstances, and teams.

Please these never-before-seen moments from Adorable D’s hospital birth story.
