" It was so important to me to have a birth environment that respected my role as a mother to my two year old and allowed her to be part of this change to our family. I wanted her understanding of pregnancy and birth to be one filled with confidence, joy, and respect for her ability to participate and understand such a natural process. Throughout my pregnancy, she so skillfully included her in everything possible and I saw her take ownership of "our baby" before he was even born. This picture says everything to me; thank you, Marcy, for making sure my new baby came safely into a family where he was already cherished by my "old" one. " - Cynthia
