Feeling calm during labour is one of those things that might seem unrealistic, but with the right tools for preparation, birth can be empowering 🤍

When you’re not prepared, your anxiety and adrenaline will spike. This is a totally normal response to discomfort, but it doesn’t mean it has to be the case.

If you feel like you’d like a bit more support with how to prepare for labour, I’m here. You don’t have to navigate it alone. Book a 1-1 with me today via the link in my bio 🩷

There’s nothing more powerful than a room full of mums sharing, learning and supporting each other 🤍

It was so nice to speak at The Mum Club Haringey - answering questions, easing worries and having honest conversations about pregnancy, birth and those early newborn days!✨

Sometimes all you really need… is to hear “that’s completely normal” from someone who knows.

If you’ve got questions, concerns, or just want that extra reassurance, you don’t have to wait for your next appointment. Support is there when you need it.

Sometimes things don’t go the way you planned 🤍

Birth, pregnancy, even those early days after they can look very different to what you imagined. And that can bring up a lot of emotions.

But what matters most in those moments isn’t perfection or sticking to a plan… it’s feeling supported, informed, and cared for ✨

You deserve to feel heard, to ask questions, and to have someone guide you through whatever path your journey takes.

So many women think they should feel 100% excited but it’s completely normal to feel excited and nervous at the same time. Both can exist together.

After 30+ years as a midwife, I’ve seen this time and time again, you don’t have to feel fully “ready” to cope beautifully. Confidence comes with support, knowledge and experience.

Be gentle with yourself. You’ve got this 🫶

There’s no “better” way to give birth 🤍

Whether your baby arrives vaginally or via C-section, what matters most is that you feel informed, supported, and safe.

Every birth is different, and every experience is valid.

If you’re unsure about your options or feeling a little anxious, you’re not alone, having the right information can make such a difference ✨

If you’d like more support around this, I cover it in my 1–1 antenatal sessions and in my Baby Bible 🤍
