The born yesterday shirt (I assume you are talking about the t-shirt that says "Why Yes As A Matter Of Fact I Was Born Yesterday", was a gift from Kelli Nicole and I'm not sure where it was from. I also have this onesie and LOVE it: http://www.etsy.com/listing/26204822/nametag-bodysuit?ref=sr_gallery_3&ga_search_query=newborn+tshirt&ga_search_type=&ga_page=4&includes[0]=tags&includes[1]=title Actually T1 has it on right this very second!

Due to many medical issues I wont get to experience any of this firsthand. So having this is great. Also, I don't have Flickr but wanted to ask where you got the owl and born yesterday onesies. I have a friend due in a couple weeks and would love to get something like those for her. Thanks so much for sharing this. Due to many medical issues I wont get to experience any of this firsthand.

I am loving these photos. Bless you for sharing all this, for being so open. I love how many details you are providing. So many women feel weird or bad or strange for the quirks of labor, and it is good to have examples to point to so we can say, "No, see, it's normal to listen to a song on repeat and eat three bananas!" :) Also love your iPhone case with your logo on it. Where did you find it?!

My mom had six kids and I'm the only one who has birth photos (not professional, but I have them nonetheless). I would be so jealous if I didn't have them, so I know I'm going to hire someone to document my big day for my children! I was just thinking the same thing about a birth photographer!

Can't say I'll actually deliver in it since those kinds of things can very much change at the last minute, but it seems like being able to labor in it would be so nice. I labored in the tub with G, but the bathtub simply wasn't big enough or deep enough to give a whale like me that wonderful weightless, floating feeling. I will not labor feeling like a beached whale again. So glad you have all these awesome pictures to document the entire experience! Oh, I am SO getting a birth tub next time!

What touched me the most from reading other birth stories is that surrender part I think. It's like this very very old world part of us, something from the beginning of times, well at least what I read of it. The I phone in a ziplock made me smile. And TH being there for you, that's one of my top reasons of wanting a home birth, besides the more natural process.
