birth of child
Baby enters world
The birth of a child is the event of a baby emerging from its mother's body, marking the beginning of a new human life.
The phrase emphasizes the child's arrival rather than the mother's labor, often appearing in legal, medical, or ceremonial contexts: The birth of a child changes everything, following the birth of their first child.
It frames childbirth from the perspective of what is gained rather than what is endured.
