A flexible nervous system doesn’t mean emotions feel easy.
It just means you can move through them without getting stuck.

I felt it, let it rise, and came back to myself, no shutdown, no shame, just awareness and space.

TW: blood, birth

My first birth (2022) ended in an unplanned C-section at 9cm with a breech baby.
I struggled afterwards, pain, dissociation, Covid restrictions and feeling unheard.
I knew before getting pregnant again: I wanted a VBAC.

I went in loud + informed.
Despite doing Hypnobirthing, screaming felt more powerful for me, it helped me stay in my body, feel in control and move the energy.

Pushing felt like every ounce of me (mind + body + universe) had to channel downward 🤯
It was INTENSE… but I never felt out of control.
The adrenaline afterwards was wild.

Recovery came with stitches & discomfort,
but still so much easier than my C-section.

I even gave myself 2 full weeks at home,
something I never allowed the first time.

Deep gratitude for:
✨ my midwife + support midwife
✨ my mum for holding River
✨ my MIL for nailing acupressure better than Terence 😅

The kind of partner who steps in,
so you can simply be.

Becoming parents is wild.
Our nervous systems are stretched in every direction, so having a partner who supports co-regulation is everything.

For us, “colic” has meant a baby who needs to be held upright, bounced, comfort-fed, crying from digestive discomfort every wake window and rarely wanting to be put down on their back.

We’ve been alternating between a paediatric osteo and a chiro and baby no. 2 always sleeps deeply after.

I still honour the physical (getting medical advice and support) while letting this season teach me presence, patience and softness.

Some days it’s tears and surrender. Others it’s coffee, cuddles and metal music. Lots of + in our house and on every drive. (Metal seems to have helped our babies settle 😂)

Always seek medical advice and support, this is just my experience.
