Birth of Harry is one of the most beautiful free childbirth clips.
I love this clip. What a beautiful baby and family
. Watching it brings me back to the birth of my daughter. This is
a really nice montage of the baby's development and the first moments
of birth.
It is touching and heart warming. It is wonderful how
the mother has faith in the natural process of birth and does not
rush to hospital after the 40th week.
Notice the photo of 41 week and a few days. The typical
pregnancy is 40 weeks. My second daughter was overdue and I know what
it is to wait and count every day after the due date.
The photo of Mom breastfeeding little Harry is truly
touching. Also the photo where little Harry looks up at Dad and smiling
while Dad is holding him in his arms is a beautiful glimpse into the
bonding of father and son.
We often hear about bonding of mother and baby, and
sometimes the bonding with the father is neglected, though it is very
important.
This musical free childbirth clip has a gorgeous song.
It's called "With Arms Wide Open" by Creed.
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything ...oh yeah
With arms wide open..wide open
[Guitar Break]
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open...
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything..oh yeah
With arms wide open....wide open
Lead singer Scott Stapp wrote this song
after finding out he was going to be a father. He had a son named
Jagger. Stapp wrote this song because he didn't want his son facing
the same problems he faced while growing up. Stapp was from a very
strict, very devout Christian household and he didn't want his son
to grow up questioning himself and his faith just like his father
did.
