10 beautiful umbilical cord birth photos you HAVE to see

Celebrating birth is an incredible thing, but when it’s captured in pictures it takes it to a whole new level. These photos taken by Denver Photographer Monet Nicole capture the beauty of the umbilical cord.

The umbilical cord nurtured and kept your baby alive for 9 months and it is truly amazing, yet it is often not celebrated or photographed.

Check out these beautiful and amazing birth photos which feature the umbilical cord.

I wish that I had managed to capture my births so beautifully. These photos are truly magical.

So beautiful. It takes me back to the moment my daughter was first placed on my chest. It was truly a dream come true.

They are stunning photos. Something I never thought of doing. When in labour, having photos taken didn’t even cross my mind.
