The Gentle Home Birth of Darling, Sweet Baby Pax.

I'm happy to share our own Home Birth video of baby Pax. I'm thankful to my husband Sean for being the love, support and encouragement I needed all through this pregnancy and birth! Sean my dear husband was a pillar of strength yet the gentle touch of reassurance and confidence I needed all throughout. Thank you sweet, sweet Zara Boo for sleeping so well through the birth of your baby brother and waking early in the morning so happy to meat him! You loved him at first sight and he loved you too! Our precious Pax was born healthy, strong and with a touch of sweet, strawberry red hair! He has been a shining light and burst of happy energy in our home every day. We couldn't be more thankful to have his sweet spirit in our lives. We would also like to thank our wonderful midwife Rachel Talley  and partner Eulia. 

They were a great team and fabulous support in many ways. I learned to find my own empowerment and inner strength from Rachel and for that I will always be grateful. Thank you Lindsay Davis for being such a sweet support and help to me in numerous ways. You truly were a Doula in disguise. Thank you Natalie Tanner for capturing beautiful photos that we will always cherish. Thank you Shona Moyer for putting this darling video together that we might always remember how sacred his birth was. Thank you everyone on this birth team for helping us achieve the goal of a beautiful, peaceful, gentle birth of our baby boy. 

Samantha's Birth Story

I'm so excited to share my next client Katrina's sacred Home Birth story, beautifully written herself. My roll as a doula in this birth was solely for the purpose of supporting the momma during Labor. What made it so inspiring to be a part of was that in fact that is all she needed, physical support. In all other areas she was fully prepared!
This woman is a fabulous example of  getting in touch with and listening to her divine feminine within. As you read about her birth you will soon see the complete responsibility she took for each and every aspect of her birth, emotionally, physically, energetically, informationally and more.
I would also like to highlight the fact that her baby was originally in the Posterior Position. I'm so proud to know a woman who educated herself so well that she knew she could turn the baby herself with no medical intervention! Posterior babies that go undetected can lead to  very long labors and hard births. However if you are experiencing this, a Doula or home birth midwife would help you to get in a variety of positions known to help a baby move into optimal fetal positioning in order to restart a halted or slow labor and possibly save you from an unnecessary c-section. Waitta go Katrina for knowing just what to do in order to help herself dilate and have a beautiful birth. A side note: Katrina is also a Doula herself.
