I got to spend about 28 hours with a wonderful couple, over the past couple of days, witnessing the incredible journey of labor, birth and growth of a family.
Baby Charles Michael Jenkins was born today at 3:08pm, to Kim and Ryan. He weighs 7lbs 1 oz and measures 20.5 in.
His birth is a testament to the strength and determination of his mother, Kim, to bring him into this world in a non-surgical way. He was born by VBA2C, in the care of the always inspired and inspiring doc T.
Kim labored like an incredible warrior, over several days of prolongued early labor. She adjusted to labor as it went along, with all its wonder and unpredictibility, and always kept her strength and focus working towards what mattered most.
Here are some images I was happy to record for them, as their doula. Thank you, guys, for inviting me to spend all this time witnessing the growth of your wonderful family!
at home
lots of walking
