Giving birth at home is such a private, emotional experience, that mums-to-be rarely get the chance to see how other people are doing it.
But one photographer wants to change that, capturing intimate photos of his girlfriend’s labour to share what a home birth is really like.
Gustavo Gomes and his girlfriend Priscila Bochi chose to skip the hospital and welcome their child at home after seeing a documentary called O Renascimento do Parto, which explores the high number of caesareans and traumatic births taking place around the world.
