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.

You’ve likely read the birth story (indiebirth.org/rumisol) but this is a long podcast I did with baby Rumi on my lap about his pregnancy and birth from a spiritual perspective.

This birth was an initiation; and I recorded this so I would remember all the cool and crazy details that make up this tale. I talk about the way his name came in, my premonitions about the birth and the spiritual meanings or thoughts behind a lot of it.

I’m happy to share these intimate details because I think there is growth and lessons for all of us on the path of conscious birth. Set aside a good bit of time to listen (if that all resonates) and let me know your thoughts or experiences.

    I’m so glad you created and shared this :)!!!

  2. Nancy Watson says:

    First off congratulations! What a beautiful story of birth and the support you felt.
    So many lessons in what you experienced and your openness to INCORPORATE them into your being at the time and hopefully later your practice is wonderful. When we are open to learning from our experiences we become more knowledgeable and wise.
    Here’s to two wise women!
    Your inner wisdom told you what you needed to do in labor and you gained more wisdom while birthing and supporting Rumi’s birth in the hospital.
    Joyful tears

    Thank you so much for sharing your story 🙂
