We're Maryn + Margo

We are mamas and birth workers who decided to do birth differently– and bring others along with us. We are kind, fun to work with, and great at (lovingly) calling people on their bullshit. With 12 children and 20 years of midwifery between us, we’ve learned a thing or two along the way, and Indie Birth is our space to share it all with you.

Last night, or more accurately, super early this morning, I woke (for who knows what pregnancy reason!) and found myself staring out the window into the sky.
**
It’s so dark here in Sedona (no streetlights); looking out the window at night reveals the vast mystery of the Universe. My eyes focused in on the stars, and I could clearly feel and connect that this is where my baby comes from. From some other place, some other galaxy. I’ve felt this with some but not all of my babies; and never this strong.
**
Compelled by the darkness and the bright stars, I also felt how this baby is slowly grounding in, how he/she regularly goes out to the stars (especially at night) but is returning to the body more readily. I called him back (him, her?) in that moment and suddenly he was back in human form, kicking around in my belly. Able to flow and shapeshift and traverse the realities.
**
Magic.

Have you had experiences like this with spirit babies, in pregnancy? I’d love to hear your stories.

    I’ve always had a strong connection to the moon and stars and for the year before I conceived and throughout my pregnancy I would feel that the moon would be staring with intention and intensity right at me. I’d wake in the middle of the night, and without moving, I’d open my eyes and the moon would be directly in my view, gazing back at me. The week before I went into labor, my sister, my dad, and I all had seen shooting stars. I knew my baby was coming soon, somewhere around the full moon… she came 3 days later! I never made a point to show her the moon but around 8 months we went on a walk and she looked right up at the moon, pointed, and said “MOO!”
