Mum stuns the internet with incredibly relaxed birth We often talk about the dramatic side of childbirth while giving little attention to the positives – so it’s quite refreshing to see this video of possibly the most peaceful birth we’ve ever seen. New mum Audra Lynn, who filmed her waterbirth in Orange County, California, had a pretty speedy but relaxed delivery. In the video, which was taken by midwife Lisa Marie Sanchez Oxenham, Ms Lynn has a few contractions before the baby pops out. “It’s an amazing, uneventful delivery,” Lisa Marie said. “What you cannot quite see in the video is that the head is already out. So I tell Audra to wait for the next contraction, and that’s when the baby flies out. ‘The mother’s joy is so moving. When she says “my baby son”, it makes many people cry. It is such an incredible moment.’ Mum stuns the internet with incredibly relaxed birth Since the video was uploaded to Facebook and Instagram it has been viewed 16 million times. Lisa Marie said: ‘I believe the video has gone viral because it’s such a beautiful moment in an intimate, private and relaxed atmosphere. ‘That is something we just don’t associate with childbirth anymore and certainly don’t see enough of.’ Hats off to you Ms Lynn.
