Donovan’s birth was by far my hardest labour and delivery. It was hard because of my experience with my previous birth, my 1st son – 2nd born. I never was able to wrap my head around baby #3 and that this birthing process wouldn’t necessarily follow that of #2. So from the start I was […]
Willow’s #BestOf2016
Oh, how my birth was not what we had planned… My due date was November 6th, and on that day I felt like crap. I started losing my mucus plug and thought that maybe my overall mood and me being uncomfortable was normal. This being my first pregnancy I figured it was my body getting […]
Samantha’s #BestOf2016
In May 2016 I had my second baby boy, Deacon, and Genia was my midwife again. When I arrived at the hospital she gave me a huge hug and said, “today is a great day to have a baby!” I then asked her what she had originally had planned for the day and learned that […]
Cyndi’s #BestOf2016
I had had my second son with Becca and Leah as my midwives in 2014. When I found out I was pregnant with my third baby in June, I emailed Generations right away. I was so happy to find out that both Becca and Leah would be my midwives again for this birth. […]
Chris’s #BestOf2016
We have lots of great memories from our time at Generations Midwifery, but one of my favourite moments of 2016 was catching our son, Hudson, as he was being born. Leading up to that moment, I wasn’t sure if I would be able to handle cutting his umbilical cord so I never expected to actually […]
Allison’s #BestOf2016
Had to share this memory with you… I was past my due date and getting pretty grumpy about it as my due date was before Christmas and it was now into January… Josée was over for a home visit and was all calm and lovely as Josée always is. She excused herself for a minute […]
Lindsey’s #BestOf2016
How I would love to relive that night! The 2 hours of amazing support from Heather and Colleen in safely delivering our beautiful baby girl, Clare. The breastfeeding support 10 minutes after birth during my first hour of skin to skin bonding. The outstanding personal care as I got showered in the comfort of my […]
Miranda’s #BestOf2016
My favourite memory of 2016 would have to be the birth of our second daughter Clara Lee on February 3rd. We were once again blessed to have a home water birth, but boy was it ever a different experience than the first! We had just picked up our new vehicle an hour prior, when I […]
Jeanine’s #BestOf2016
My favourite memory… I’m about to get all TMI here, but we’ve all gone there I’m sure? I had an appointment with Heather and Becky after giving birth, just before Halloween. We got on the topic of hemorrhoids and how they happen a lot of the time while giving birth because of how hard you […]
Jessica’s #BestOf2016
My favourite Generations Midwifery memory of 2016 would be the birth of my son, Lucas. It was a trying few weeks leading up to the birth itself. He was breech. Both Genia and Becky were very sensitive towards my situation and helped me to make an educated and personal decision in regards to a plan […]
