WARNING some of these images you really can’t un-see…
Birthing images have long been censored on social media—until a group of activists decided that women should be able to
actually see a baby emerging from its mother’s vagina.
In early January 2018, a month after a Change.org petition was first published, it was agreed that Facebook and
Instagram policicies would be changed to allow birth content.
Facebook’s and Instagram’s decision to change their policy is the result of years of conversations with women’s health
advocates and the birthing community, Instagram’s Karina Newton told HarpersBazaar.com exclusively.
It’s also personally important to her as a mother of two, she says: “We’re really proud that Instagram’s nudity policy
is evolving to allow for that community, and for moms and families to share photos and videos of childbirth.”
Some mum’s might find these images a bit confronting and even distressing after their own birth experience. But we
believe they are simply too stunning not to share. Just be warned!
So close to meeting babe with a full head of

This very moment, one year ago I was in a
portal. A place between two worlds. Who I had been, who I was, was dying. Making way for a new normal.
Forced to say goodbye to my maiden self, ready or not. Labor pains began and escalated quickly. The
intensity was extreme, but exhilarating. Carrying me into the unknown. Unapologetically demanding my
surrender. This was birth. I was giving birth. About to know the meaning of true love. The deepest bond
known to man. Fierce, fervid, fathomless motherly love. Though it was the dead of winter, it was spring in
my heart, for new life was eminent. So sacred. So spiritual. The closest to god one could be. Creating a new
life, and bringing it earthside. So surreal. As you slid into the world, you were born, and I reborn. The
door between worlds closed. The genesis of my divine motherhood. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #birthstory

Uncensored birth is an antidote to all the
lies we have been told about our bodies. It is an antidote to the mainstream, porn-crazed male gaze that
says our pussies should only be seen and appreciated for sex. Sex is beautiful too, but this— this is
breathtaking. This is beauty beyond words and power beyond measure. It’s something we no longer have to
hide. The veil has been lifted; isn’t it glorious? ???? photo of mama @hayleymcbrideee

Facebook and Instagram finally stop
censoring birth imagery thanks to petitions and campaigning by birthworkers. And right on Mother’s Day too.
???????????????????????????????? @empoweredbirthproject I have had several birth images removed after
posting. Which really, really ticks me off. Because I don’t get how anyone finds this offensive or ‘in
breach of community standards’. It’s a woman giving birth. Happens all day, every day all over the planet.
It’s a natural function of our bodies and it often requires nudity not because we are hoes but because it’s
more comfortable and practical soooooo… yeah, don’t get how it’s gross or inappropriate. UNLESS of course
you have a problem with the idea of things coming OUT of vaginas as well as things going INTO them. And
unless you have a problem with a woman looking fierce as fuck and in complete control of her own body.
???????????? Very happy! The shift is happening! Slowly, surely. Girls gotta know their pussy power
potential; pure pleasure portal AND – – > sacred symbol of abundance, perfection, the universe, source,
consciousness and gateway of LIFE. ????✨????????✨????✨✨ Image: @lindseymeehleis A post shared by Amanda Vella (@amandavella) on

En Caul ✨ Little Billy was born in his
amniotic sac. This picture shows the Midwife assisting to rupture the membranes as he makes his way out. Now
that the censorship days over I can share stunning images with you like these. You can listen to Billy’s
birth story in Episode 15 on the podcast. @bradleybunch_ ????@laine_tribes A post shared by Australian Birth Stories

Sometimes, when it comes to birth, seeing is
believing. For myself personally, when I was in labor with my first child, completely overwhelmed with the
pain and sensation of it all and feeling doubtful my baby would ever come out, I clung to mental images of
women giving birth. At that time, I hadn’t seen very many. Just a few photos in birthing and human
physiology texts I’d read. I’m passionate about sharing #uncensoredbirth photos for many reasons, one of
them being how helpful and important it is for birthing people to see that it is possible. And in this case,
this incredible hands-off breech birth. Breech Birth is an endangered practice, with fewer and fewer
practitioners being trained in attending and assisting this variation of normal. Behold— see it. Believe it!
