What is a Caul Bearer?

Warning: Some graphic birthing images here

Here are photos of both "caul" and "en-caul" births - and of preserved cauls.  

I found lots of caul birth pics, but just two "en-caul" birth pics.  If you have either caul or en-caul birth pics that you would like to share, please contact me and I will post them in the corresponding album!

"Caul" slideshow Background music: "May it be", by Enya

"May it be an evening star

Shines down upon you

May it be when darkness falls

Your heart will be true

You walk a lonely road

Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utulie (Darkness has come)

Believe and you will find your way

Mornie alantie (Darkness has fallen)

A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadow's call

Will fly away

May it be your journey on

To light the day

When the night is overcome"
