Birth Stories

  • Rosmary

    Rosmary and her husband Jorge were experienced parents by the time baby Noa came along. She navigated the wild intensity of labor with the grace of a skilled warrior and her baby was born in water, into his father’s arms.

  • Becca

    For Becca’s first birth, she prepared herself physically, mentally, and spiritually to face the transformative power of labor. After a labor that required a level of strength she never knew she had, she met her baby, and she met herself as a mother.

  • Stephanie

    Stephanie knew before she was pregnant that she wanted a natural birth. Emily is a personal friend to her so is was a mutual honor to walk through the process together. Though labor wasn’t easy, she found peace in the process. She brought her baby from the water and the moment of their meeting was pure bliss.
