Just a little reminder ✨

At the moment I’m currently soaking up all the newborn snuggles and enjoying some time being off-call. While I love what I do…life as a homemaker with 4 littles, homeschooling is a full time job itself 🤪My family will always come first and it’s important I spend this fleeting season intentionally.

I plan to be on maternity leave March- May.

I will begin offering 1:1 natural childbirth education classes starting in June and slowly start accepting 2026 due dates later this fall.

…and last but not least…

I specialize in helping families break away from the medical model of care and embrace a more holistic approach. There’s nothing I love more than helping women prepare to give birth in the comfort of their own home (or select birth centers). With that being said, while I am grateful for western medicine when need be, I do not take on clients that plan to give birth at the hospital.

Hard to believe we’re coming up on 1 whole month with our girl ✨

…4 weeks of navigating this postpartum season, healing, soaking up all the snuggles and adjusting to life as a family of 6.

It’s hard to put into words how much her pregnancy helped heal my soul. Bringing her into the world on my own with my husband by my side in the comfort of our home was one of the most freeing and empowering experiences. I’ll be sharing our story in the weeks to come… for now, I’m slowly starting to emerge from my postpartum bubble❤️

Much more behind than I’d like to be in sharing all of the births I’ve had the honor of supporting this past year😅 Planning on sharing birth stories differently in 2025 (more to come in the next few weeks) but couldn’t help feel the need to play a little catch up first.

6 incredibly powerful women, each with their own unique story of how they transcended through the birth portal.

Each one of these quotes handpicked as a tribute to the power I watched each one of them exude in their own way.

All born anew, yet each having walked a different path facing challenges tailor made to mold and shape them as mothers.

Choosing to tap into the magic that unfolds when you are humbled by the intensity of labor, attempting to find comfort amidst discomfort and truly surrender to the unknown, is something that sounds so simple yet is so complex to achieve.

So proud of each one of you, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey🫶🏻

There’s some women you meet who are just determined to persevere despite their given circumstances.

What’s the saying, something like “nothing like a woman who knows what she wants?” I felt this in my bones the moment we met, she had this utter sense of calm, practical yet aware of what was required to achieve the natural birth she intuitively knew was meant for her.

As a first time mama she was left feeling broken down and unsupported throughout her birth and postpartum by her partner. Despite everything she’d been through she was determined to persevere, envisioning that one day things would be different. Flash forward to meeting her amazing future husband and conceiving baby #2 she decided to fore go the medical model of care that led her astray the first time around.

She hired a midwife and not just any midwife- Nikki Brown . Prenatal care was drastically different this time around and that layed the foundation for this experience to be truly about her. Not to mention the birth center has this essence of feeling “at home.”

When the time came she listened to her body and knew exactly what to do. We all spent time talking and laughing with one another during early labor and the room quickly shifted as she progressed. She flowed through labor seamlessly allowing her body to take the lead as her husband held space for her mentally and physically.

Her birth team and I assisted when needed and the day made for a wonderful example of those around her “knowing when to sit on their hands and when to use them.”

Birth can be such an intimate experience when mama’s oxytocin starts flowing and is nurtured by the those who make her feel safe & protected, it’s such a beautiful thing to bare witness to.

The both of them walked away from this experience forever changed, her empowered from reclaiming authority over her birth and him from watching her step into her power. All of us as birth workers, in awe of her easygoing and bubbly spirit.

Could not be happier for this growing family. Hard to believe this week already checked off a big milestone- solo parenting when dad goes back to work😭

Happy one month postpartum my friend 💙

Celebrating a remarkable moment of strength and grace ✨

Your journey to meeting your girls has been nothing short of a testament to your resilience and unwavering spirit.

From the very beginning of your pregnancy, you faced opposition at every turn simply because you were carrying twins. Yet, through it all, you remained steadfast, determined, and fiercely committed to listening to your body and following its lead. Despite the challenges and doubts thrown your way, you never succumbed to the fears of the outside world.

Watching you transcend through the birth portal with such strength and grace was a truly profound experience. Even in the midst of contractions, you radiated joy, laughter, and an unshakeable sense of calm. Your ability to find moments of lightness, like enjoying a burger, amidst the intensity of labor was a testament to your incredible spirit.

How grateful I am to have been in your corner holding space and cheering you on throughout one of the most transformative days of your life. Pretty sure my face says it all👉🏻🥹

I can’t believe today already marks one month since this memorable day 💕

Proud of you for always believing in yourself Erika Carrion. I feel so fortunate to have a front row seat to watch your family grow, there really is nothing quite like walking through the trenches of motherhood alongside someone who just gets you.

…and the fact that we have these beautiful photos as a keepsake is just the cherry on top. Can’t thank you enough for capturing these special moments Nurturing Dawn Birth Services!

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a little business introduction…To the new friends following along, welcome to my little corner of the internet. I’m Brittany Boring, devoted wife and mama of 3. I’m also the face behind Not So Boring Birth Services: Holistic Pregnancy + Postpartum Support- think of me as your local doula/ birth nerd bestie specializing in giving birth outside of the system✨

If you or someone you know is expecting and looking for someone to help them navigate the natural birth world I’d love for you to send them my way. There is no “one size fits all” when it comes to birth work, each family I work with comes to me at various stages of their journey. Which is why it’s important for me to custom tailor my services to meet you where you are, to some this might looking like meeting once for a consultation to help point you in the right direction. To another it might look like hands on support through your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Some only interested in education, some solely looking to prepare themselves for the 4th trimester, etc.

As you can imagine, the possibilities are quite endless in this line of work and I’m constantly shifting to better meet my clients needs. Currently I am offering…

5 incredibly powerful women, each with their own unique story of how they transcended through the birth portal.

Each one of these quotes handpicked as a tribute to the power I watched each one of them exude in their own way.

All born anew, yet each having walked a different path facing challenges tailor made to mold and shape them as mothers.

If 2024 has taught me anything so far- it’s that there is so much beauty is the unknown when it comes to giving birth. Birth can be wildly unpredictable, just like your so called “due date.”

Choosing to tap into the magic that unfolds when you are humbled by the intensity of labor, attempting to find comfort amidst discomfort and truly surrender to the unknown, is something that sounds so simple yet is so complex to achieve.

So proud to have stood alongside each one of you 🫶🏻

…and it went like ➡️

This is my birth history, a harsh reminder of how broken the system has become. I have shared so many conversations with women that have similar birth trauma and it breaks my heart to hear them express the pain and suffering they experienced during such a vulnerable time.

As a 90’s kid, the messaging regarding pregnancy, birth and postpartum I grew up receiving was far from empowering and has proven to be such a disservice to our generation.

Choosing to blindly follow what you've been told by your OB because “that’s how it’s always been” is hindering the change so many women are actively advocating for in the birth world.

✨Birth is NOT dangerous.

✨Breech is simply a variation of NORMAL.

✨Your birth story matters. Invest the time in educating yourself, you’re worth it.

✨When a women’s body is nurtured and given the appropriate time for labor to unfold naturally something rarely goes wrong.

✨Trust is earned, your birth team should consist of people who align with your vision- that make you feel safe, seen and supported.

✨Don’t fall into the trap of feeling like the system is the safe route. The only person looking out for the best interest of your baby is YOU.

Feeling overwhelmed? Let me help you quiet the noise and navigate this unknown territory.

I’m currently working with several families in need of extra support so my availability for 2024 is already beginning to fill quickly. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re feeling like you need another woman who has walked this same path to lean on through this season, birth talk is my love language.
