Over the weekend, several members of  Smart Parenting Village wanted to share a video in the Facebook group that we must say is not for those who are…faint at heart. But we understand why they sent it to us: it demonstrates how powerful a birthing mom can be (well, the power of this mom at least).

The woman in the video is German physician and mom of six, Sarah Schmid, and it shows her giving birth to her fifth child at home UNASSISTED. Birth doula Flor Cruz (@badassmotherbirther), who shared the clip below, described Sarah’s video as “nothing complex, difficult, technological, forced, timed, chaotic or mapped out.”
