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.

    What an amazing slideshow! I find myself feeling peaceful after watching it. I also had an amazing homebirth (after 2 emotionally traumatic cesareans), and I love reliving it through others!

    And oh how jealous I am that you had a photographer there–I sooo wished we had done that. How wonderful that you have those to forever remember.

    Thank you so much!

    This was very inspiring. I had been planning a natural hospital birth until I was 30 weeks when I realized those two don’t work together and I do not like being taken advantage of.

    I’m now planning a home birth and have all my supplies and my friend is a TM. I’m due at the end of April. My husband is so supportive about it and I’m so happy and excited. Thank you so much for making the video. I can’t wait to make one myself of my son emerging into this beautiful crazy world.

    Namaste,

    Thanks so much for posting the video of Jude's Birth!
    I am 37 weeks pregnant, have been seeing a midwife throughout my entire pregnancy and am planning on having a home birth.
    Some days I feel so confident that I will bring our little one into this World the way I want to ( 100% natural and at home), but there are other days when I feel so weak because of the negative responses I get when I tell people I'm doing it all natural. This video has really helped me feel empowered as a woman and has helped me believe that I too can be strong and have a healthy happy baby with the aid of a Midwife and without medical intervention!

    Thank you!
