Hi lovely mums + parents-to-be,
I’m running a gentle, evidence-based and trauma-aware Birth Workshop on 6 December, and I wanted to share it here for anyone who is pregnant, planning pregnancy, or wanting a better experience this time around.

This workshop blends:
🌿 Mainstream birth education
🌿 Birth physiology + hormones
🌿 Pain science + safer comfort measures
🌿 Induction, interventions + decision-making
🌿 Partner tools + advocacy
🌿 Postpartum + the first 40 days

Whether you’re having your first baby or your fourth — feeling informed and supported changes everything.

💛 Who it’s for:
• Pregnant now (any stage)
• TTC or planning for a baby
• Anyone wanting a more positive birth than last time
• Women who feel overwhelmed by too much information
• Parents wanting simple, practical tools that actually work
• Partners who want to know how to support and advocate

🌱 What we cover:
✔ How your hormones work during labour
✔ What helps labour progress naturally
✔ Comfort measures that actually reduce pain
✔ How to navigate induction + interventions
✔ How to protect your birth space
✔ What your partner can do (step-by-step)
✔ Nervous system tools for calmer birth
✔ Immediate postpartum + bonding
✔ Breastfeeding basics
✔ Your rights + advocacy

💛 Why this workshop is different:
This isn’t fear-based or overwhelming.
It’s warm, grounded, evidence-based and supportive.
👥 Partners welcome Birth is a team effort.
Your partner will learn exactly how to support you physically, emotionally and practically.

📅 Details:
🗓 6 December

💕 If you want a birth that feels calm, informed and empowering — this is for you.

Overwhelmed with all of the noise around giving birth and baby care? This class focuses on what we think is important for new parents to know about preparing for birth, how to make choices about pregnancy and birth, what to take to hospital and then how to take care of your baby when you take them h

I recently responded to an obstetricians video online where she said she would never recommend women stay pregnant beyond 41 weeks. She said the ‘SWEEPSER’ study was stopped early because there were adverse outcomes in the non-induction group compared to the induction group.

She wasn’t wrong… well, she was wrong about the name of the study, it’s called the SWEPIS study, and it was stopped early (1380 women in each group) because there were 5 still births in the group of women who were induced at 42 weeks compared to 41 weeks

BUT, look at the study properly and you’ll see that there were 5 venues in Stockholm that intentionally increased care and monitoring for women between 41-42 weeks, and none of the women in these groups had stillbirths despite going to 42 weeks. The stillbirths were at the other venues who did not have a clear strategy for caring for women beyond 41 weeks.

The SWEPIS study shows that induction at 41 weeks is not the only way to reduce stillbirth… the other option is to acknowledge the slight increase in risk and mitigate it with additional appropriate maternity care and monitoring (for those women who want to avoid induction AND mitigate the stillbirth risk).

I did remind the obstetrician of the actual contents of the SWEPIS study, but she chose to delete my comment. She also said not to take advice off the internet - so feel free to read the SWEPIS (not SWEEPSER) study for yourself, it’s available full text online
