Birth Attendant Kit; £67

This photograoh is so cool. The tiny hand holding onto the surgeon's finger belongs to a pre-natal baby - being operated on while still in the womb. Amazing
The whole birth thing is amazing though, isn't it? A woman carrying another little person around inside her, then somehow managing to push it out when it's reached a size that seems impossibly big.

It's no surprise when you think about it that births can throw out complications. It must give everyone around mother and child great peace of mind to know that there's someone there who knows what they're doing, and who has the right stuff. I can't fill the midwife role - but through this present, I can help someone else to do so. A tiny, tiny part in all those little miracles entering the world. Amazing.
