A girl after 4 home born boys.

• Brendan is oldest and he weighed 6# 4 oz  ~~  Waterbirth!
• Gabrielle weighed 6# 12 oz. ~~  Waterbirth!

These babies were born at The Greenhouse Birth Center in Okemos.  It was the first twin birth they’ve done there, so they consulted with me, and asked me to attend the birth.  It was a quick labor and I missed Brendan’s birth, but made it for Gabrielle’s!  This was the 14th planned out of hospital twin birth I’ve attended.  2 of those mothers were transported in labor and still gave birth vaginally.  We’ve also screened out 9 women due with twins, and only 2 of them have had vaginal births.
