✨ Pregnancy Tips

Pregnancy brings so many beautiful changes and a few new aches along the way. Here are some simple, safe ways to feel more comfortable as your body works hard to grow your baby. 🪴

💧 Stay hydrated — aim for 8–10 cups a day.

🚶‍♀️ Gentle movement (like walking or prenatal yoga) eases aches.

💤 Use extra pillows between your knees and under your belly for sleep support.

🧦 Elevate your feet and wear supportive shoes to reduce swelling.

🌿 Don’t hesitate to reach out to your midwife for comfort suggestions!

This sweet baby is here for her discharge appointment, the third pregnancy our midwives have had the joy of supporting this family through. It’s such an honour to be part of their growing journey, one birth at a time. 💕👶

Homebirth information night!
September 24th, 8pm-9pm on Zoom.

This is a free series of Online Home Birth Information Nights organized by the Department of Midwifery at BC Women’s Hospital and St. Paul’s Hospital. These sessions are designed to provide evidence-based information on home birth. Open to anyone in Vancouver interested in learning more about the benefits, safety, and logistics of home birth.

This is a great opportunity to ask questions and gather the information you need to make an informed decision regarding where you would like to give birth. Whether you’re just starting to explore your options, curious, or want to connect with other pregnant families, these info nights are open to all.

The info nights are hosted by members of the homebirth committee at BCWH. They are midwives working out of Pomegranate Community Midwives, The Midwifery Group, Westside Midwives, Huckleberry Midwives, and Strathcona Midwifery Collective.
