You Have to See Taylor Giavasis's Stunning, Intimate Photos of Her Labor and Delivery

Christina Oehler

It's not unusual for a woman to bring in a professional photographer to capture her childbirth experience on camera. But the images don't always come out as stunning as the ones Taylor Giavasis recently shared, which show her giving birth to her son last month.

The Instagram personality (and girlfriend of Vine star Nash Grier) posted the incredible photos of her home birth on Instagram on September 27, just days after little Malakai Giavasis-Grier came into the world.

Shot by Danielle Nicole Photography, the images show Giavasis, 22, in various stages of childbirth: laboring while learning on a bed, lying on her back with delivery impending, and then the sweet moments after the birth, holding Nash and nursing her newborn (who clocked in at more than 10 pounds, FYI).

“9.24.19 my 10.4 pound angel came earth-side completely unmedicated,” she wrote in her caption. “Home birth was the most intense experience of my lifetime and showed me my strength could go far beyond any boundary. I’m so thankful to have been able to have had a healthy birth.”

My sweet little angel lights up my world - I’m beyond grateful to experience the gift of motherhood and all the love it brings."
