before I had the kids I would of thought interesting, but probably would not a brought an emotional response from me either.
I do think it is something, you don't "get" until it happens to you or you witness it. So, not offended at all XXXX

I don't think you could possibly be moved by it unless you have been there - which is why I said it was one for mums and dads.

Glad I didn't upset too many then! 
I do sort of understand I suppose... pictures of baby ratties... now that makes me broody - it's hell on the rat forums at the moment, everyone seems to have litters except us - and I get very upset about that...

See, you get emotional about Ratties and their babies, for me it is newborn babies, puppies and New Shoes

That's a great slideshow and the images are superb. Certainly a bit more subtle than my childbirth pictures.
In terms of the content they've really captured that long drawn out feeling which reminded me (and probably Karen more so) of Hannah's birth which went on for days in one stage or another. That said Fiona's birth was probably about the same length as the slideshow.

Awww...very beautiful and moving images!!
Definitely not helping my broody feelings, I'm terrible, I cry even watching births in films and abysmal soap operas!
I get emotional about any sort of baby really, and weddings Probably because I'm still waiting for either of them to happen to me!
