    Non-Trendy Pregnancy & Birth Essentials

    An older mom and [largely] offline birth doula and birthkeeper talks about how being out of touch with the current birth-o-sphere and no longer in her childbearing season has perhaps made her a little irrelevant but has also made some things really CLEAR.

    My 6th Birth Story: Gilbert Ignatius (2022)

    My sixth baby was born when I was 42 years old, and for him we hired a midwife who'd been in practice since the year I was born.

    My 5th Home Birth: Agatha Wren Sue (2020)

    My fifth baby was a surprise, and her home birth during the pandemic lock-downs was a planned unassisted birth. This birth also includes a slow transition that required my support.
