**********
Sarah went to lift the crying baby into her arms so she could comfort her. The baby was only a few hours old, and Sarah was still nervous about holding her. Her husband held out his arms, ready to take his turn at holding his daughter. Sarah hesitated, not comfortable with her husband holding Mia yet. The nurse persuaded her to let the father spend time with his daughter. Sarah gently laid Mia into his waiting arms.

It is good to see both father and mother are there for the birth.

It’s such a blessing when you can spend those first hours holding the baby, passing the child back and forth, even with other relatives there.

Simply, domestically drawn, that struggle between insecurity, protectiveness, and trust in one’s partner. Nailed it, Tessa!
