We have evidence from studies involving thousands of women and babies that using water for labour and birth is safe and leads to good outcomes.

Using water also brings advantages for some women, including less need for other kinds of pain relief and increased maternal satisfaction.

But, as with many things in obstetrics, practice doesn’t always follow evidence.

Some organisations, such as the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, do not recommend waterbirth.

They sometimes cite anecdotal stories and hypothetical risks, while ignoring large studies which evidence that waterbirth is safe for women and babies.

This means that researchers need to keep doing more studies in order to demonstrate that woman-centred options are safe and effective.

Numerous studies evidence waterbirth safety.

I list many of them at https://www.sarawickham.com/water

✨ 5 Signs Your Partner is in Active Labour — What to Notice & How to Support ✨

1️⃣ They’re drawing their energy inward — They’re quieter, deeply focused, and may not want to chat between contractions.

2️⃣ The atmosphere in the room shifts — You’ll feel it — the space becomes more sacred, serious, or intense.

3️⃣ They move instinctively — Swaying, rocking, changing positions — their body knows what it needs.

4️⃣ 5️⃣They stop asking for things — They’re in the zone — it’s your time to anticipate needs and hold space gently without a lot of questions.

5️⃣Their voice changes — You might hear deeper tones, moans, or more primal sounds during contractions.

💛 Your steady, calm presence matters. Stay quiet, offer comfort, and protect the birth space.

5 Everyday Products To Avoid While Pregnant ✋

1. Scented candles and air fresheners- contain synthetic fragrance and phthalates which can disrupt your hormones.

2. Harsh house hold cleaning products.

3. Perfumes and skincare- again high amounts of phthalates and parabens can cause hormonal disruptions.

4. Plastic containers- BPA/BPS can leak into your food. Avoid heating in a plastic container.

5. Chemical sunscreens- oxybenzone, octinoxone and homosalate can be toxic and know to cause hormone disruptions.

stocks a range of Natural products such as room sprays, high quality essential oils, cleaning products and sunscreens💛🌿

Choose your products carefully and mindfully for you and your baby✨

Time: 10 - 11am
Dates: Saturday 3rd May

This is all the stuff I wish I was knew but didn’t (and learnt the hard way), plus all the stuff I did know (but only because I’ve been teaching this stuff for a million years). Honestly, it is the tips and tricks to get you on your way. Plus there’s time for any questions you all have.

Topics covered
✨Nappies (how to prevent blowouts, what to look out for, how to know if your baby is well, full, etc)
✨Sleep (how to maximise it for all of you, what works for some and not others, what to try when you’ve tried everything)
✨Health and safety (i.e. how to keep these rascals out of harms way, skin sensitivities, food sensitivities, products you should/shouldn’t use, sanitising, how do you keep them safe)
✨The casting phase and how to remain sane during it!!

If time permits, we will also discuss introducing solids (although this could be a course all on its own)
