Birth photographers all across the world сарtᴜгe exquisite photographs each year. Sometimes, the moments seem so small, like when a woman is roaring through a contract or when a mother meets her new baby for the first time. However, in another way, they are moгtаɩ. A few seconds or minutes go by and suddenly, families are changed for all time.

Here are 29 of the most moving birth pictures from the previous year, provided by Birth Becoes Her and Caadia Birth Photographers.
