These are the incredible photos of a new mother welcoming her first baby into the world in an outdoor bath tub after choosing to have a medically unassisted birth. Hannah Taylor, 23, grew up with “scary” stories about childbirth from her own mum and wanted a more serene birthing experience for her son Koa, now three months. Yoga teacher Hannah, and her sister Jessica Taylor, were born by cesarean section which left her keen to explore other options during her own pregnancy. Hannah and her partner Tyler Couchman decided to have an unassisted birth when she fell pregnant after hearing of a pal’s positive experience. Unassisted birth is the process of having a baby without the presence of a medical attendant or professional, which Hannah believed was the best option for her family.
