Giving birth naturally in a pool surrounded by fairy lights, aromatherapy blends and bounds of encouragement from an army of midwives sounds like the Pinterest version of a birthing story, but its an experience which one Ayrshire family is proud to call theirs.
Ruth Harvey, 36, and partner Eddie Gillan, 44, welcomed daughter Tabitha into world on Tuesday, February 28 at their home in Dundonald.
Baby Tabitha weighed in at a whopping 12lbs 9oz, with NHS Ayrshire & Arran’s home birthing team crowning her Ayrshire’s biggest home birth baby.
