1. Images of women giving birth were entered into the International Association of Professional Birth Photographers (IAPBP) 2016 competition.

First place went to Belgian photographer Marijke Thoen for her black and white image 'underwater birth' showing a baby with curly hair being delivered.

A moving moment was awarded best in category for delivery, taken by Robin Baker from San Diego, when a partner helped to deliver twins with the second newborn visible under the surface of the water.

A relieved mother cradles her newborn in a black and white shot showing the serenity after birth. Photographer Nathalia Walth, from Los Angeles, called it 'Where peace begins' and was awarded first prize in the category for postpartum.

A mother watches her baby take its first breaths in a picture titled 'In between two worlds,' by Alexandra Kayy from Los Angeles.

Following..
Meanwhile,, Let me see if any of the images would be GROSS.!!!

Placenta: A photographer included this because most moms have no idea what one looks like. We should take interest in these things because this amazing organ delivers nutrients, eliminates waste, fights against internal infection and produces enough hormones to support an entire pregnancy.

In a surreal shot, a baby's foot is seen coming out of the mother. However the image by Line Sena, from Brazil, may have captured a complicated birth as the baby was delivered in the breech position.

An emotional photo of new parents meeting their first baby.

Getting involved: One of the images shows one woman's seven-year-old daughter helping to put pressure on her mother's lower back.

Unique: Leilani said of this image that shows a woman can birth in many different positions. They should not be limited to their backs.

C Section birth.
