Seconds old - as birth attendants quiet down, mom and dad slowly discover their new baby and baby becomes accustomed to the new world. The security of being skin to skin with mom and the healthier transition with the cord being left intact until the placenta is ready to be born is evident. Note the creamy vernix on the baby's face - a natural protection while in the womb.
How peaceful and lovely! Thanks for sharing, Jenny!
