Jenine and I have been friends for many years now. We have a lot in common and one of those commons is our love for all things birth. We are both Doulas here in Winnipeg and we even share the same last name!Jenine knew when it was just the right time to ɡet into the pool and spent the last while of her labour using water as a wonderful support tool.
Before long Jenine’s contractions turned to primal pushy contractions. Her daughter, Tenley, woke just in time to come support her Mama too. She was so excited to be a part of her little brothers birth-day. What a beautiful gift she was given to have birth normalized for her.
With the support of 2 аmаzіпɡ Manitoba Midwives, her husband and daughter, Oakley was born peacefully at home on October 25th, 2016 at 7:29 am weighing in at 10lbs 10.5 oz. Not long later her other little boy, Eli, woke up and joined in the birthday celebrations all in the comfort of their own home.
Congratulations Brown family. Thank you for welcoming me into your sacred space and trusting me to document the day your family grew to a family of 5.
