A lot of people think birth prep is about making a plan for the perfect birth. But here’s the thing… perfection isn’t the goal. 💡

Birth prep is really about feeling confident, knowing your options, and having tools to support you, when labour takes its twists and turns (because it usually does), you still feel calm and capable. 💕

We can’t control every detail of birth. But we can prepare our bodies and minds, and that makes such a difference in how we experience it. 🌸

✨ Birth prep isn’t about control. It’s about empowerment. ✨

In birth prep we learn how to control the things that we can control. With tips based on evidence from actually research in women’s health.

Because while we can’t control every detail, we can control how prepared, supported, and empowered we feel. And that can make all the difference in creating a positive birth experience. 💕

✨ You deserve to feel informed, calm, and cared for during this life changing moment.

My 40th birthday has common gone! And I was reminded several times that it’s” a big one” 🤣 Oddly enough, I don’t feel old at all. But there has been something looming over me. I feel like finally (maybe) I should become an adult and take this whole adulting thing seriously! Retirement planning? Being the “responsible adult” in the room? 😬….fake it till you make it…right??!! I’ve figured out WHAT I want to be when I grow up. Now I have to figure out WHO I want to be!

The time and effort I put into self improvement between 40 to 60 is going to greatly impact how I feel (and how I move) 60+. I want to take care of her and have her enjoy everything she’s worked hard for. I’m reflecting back on everything I put my body through in that first 40 years. It’s been through some sh$t and stuck with me! So here’s my “to-do list” as I hit 40:

1. Add strength and cardio. Research shows this helps with perimenopause symptoms and is important for bone density. I’m a Yogi but balance is key in life! My dirty secret? I hate cardio!!!!! DM me if you have any creative ways to add this into my routine.

2. Getting on top of my nutrition. We’re entering a new stage as a family. The kids have joined plenty of sports and meals are often eaten in the car! I need healthy, fast ideas!

3. I never saw this one coming! Volunteering for a mammogram! But did you know the cancer rates in Canada are 2 in 5?!? women can now self refer for a mammogram at 40.

4. Checking on my hormone levels. Well not necessary for everyone when they hit 40. I’ve been on a roller coaster since having my kids. Perimenopause starts much earlier than many expect. We need to advocate for ourselves! It’s often overlooked. I’ve brought this up recently with my own MD and they changed the subject… twice. Well many MDs are wonderful a Naturopath can also help guide you. Any local recommendations?

5. Self love. I’m getting smile lines!….Not wrinkles!… I’m calling them “Smile lines” and I’m gonna wear them as a badge of honour and keep smiling! I have a lot to be thankful for and I’m gonna start reflecting on this daily.

Anything I missed? Any advice from those who’ve hit this milestone?
