The pregnancy announcement
Domino announced her pregnancy news on Instagram in February, revealing she previously suffered two miscarriages.
She wrote, 'On the road again... pregnancy after loss is a whole other thing.'
'After two miscarriages in a row we were ready to call it.'
Domino continued, 'I stopped trusting my body and started to accept the fact that I was done.'
'As a birth attendant, I’ve seen and heard it all.'
'It takes everything I’ve got to detach lovingly from the losses I’ve been present for and be in my own experience.'
She wrote, 'When I was pregnant at 25, I knew nothing. I had no community.'
'I dove in blissfully unaware about birth and its mysteries.'
'Now, with 10 years worth of experience to pull from, I treasure my birth community and the knowledge I have.'
'You’re already teaching us how to stay in the day in a way we’ve never had to, little one. Thank you.'

Penn and Domino
The happy couple tied the knot at a Brooklyn courthouse in 2017.
And they held a larger ceremony for friends and family later that year.
For her birthday last year, Penn wrote the sweetest tribute to her on Instagram.
He said, 'Happy birthday, Dom. A super-brief review of your invisible qualities: A truly radiant soul, you seem to spark alight almost everyone you meet, like a 99% success rate.'
'It’s really impressive, and quite mysterious.'
The Gossip Girl actor continued, 'You encourage others to be honest, and brave, and gentle, and expansive.'
'Your great capacity for empathy is obvious, something anyone can get warm by like a glowing stove.'
'Your desire to be of service to others is miraculous. It is in your DNA.'
'In pictures as a very young child, you exude it - a great care and sweetness; an invitation.'
'You make others happy by you. For me, it is a joy to witness you when you are happy.'
'For you, I always hope to be a source of joy. I’m really glad we’re married.'
