💕💙 Baby Loss Awareness Day 💕💙

Today, as candles are lit across the world, we pause to remember the precious babies who left us too soon — and to hold in our hearts every parent who carries love and longing side by side.

To all the mothers and fathers I have had the privilege of caring for — I remember you, and I remember your babies.

Your strength, your love, and your courage stay with me always.

The depth of your love speaks louder than words, and the bond with your baby is everlasting — it lives on in your hearts, and in the hearts of all who have walked beside you 🥰

There is no timeline for grief and no measure for love. Whether your baby was held for a moment, a day, or a lifetime in your heart — they will never be forgotten 🥲

At 7pm tonight, I will light a candle in memory of every tiny life that has touched this world and every parent who continues to carry their light forward.

Together, we remember. Together, we honour these beautiful and precious babies ……gone too soon 🥲🕯️💗

So the sun was shining for us yesterday on our second "Walk & Talk" in Sutton Park and it was a great turn out too!

It was lovely to see some old familiar faces from my classes a few months ago and fabulous to see how much their gorgeous babies had grown.

It was also great to have some new moms join us who slotted in just perfectly and were soon chatting away like old friends, discussing everything from birth to baby as all moms do.

Our three pregnant moms who joined were on a mission to walk their babies out so fingers crossed they don't have too long to wait now.

The icing on the cake was that my lovely Midwife friend Jani joined us too and was lovely seeing her reassuring the moms to be that they would be just fine - thank you Jani!

For any new moms out there who are feeling a bit nervous about joining us - please just come - I promise you that you won't regret it and honestly you won't find a more friendly and supportive group of moms anywhere else!

We meet every Monday at 1 20pm outside Costa Coffee at Wyndley Leisure Centre for a 1 30pm start and we walk until around 1 30pm - 1 45pm depending if we have moms who need to do the "School Run".

I'm looking forwards to seeing you all soon!

So two days on the trot now - things must be looking up lol 😂

Today please join me in saying a huge congratulations to our lovely Amy D from my Harborne Pregnancy Yoga Class who is now the very proud Mommy of two gorgeous girls 💕💕

Aaah Amy well done you my lovely - and thank you so much for sharing your birth story with me and everyone else, because as you say it’s very rare that we get to hear a positive induction story 📖 but they are definitely out there and I do actually have a few more positive induction stories to share 🙏💕

Personally I believe two huge factors in the induction horror stories are a) the moms body not being physically ready to give birth and b) the knock on effects from fear and worry that she will end up another statistic of failed inductions 😢

For you all was very positive however - your body was ready to go and your cervix just needed a little tickle as we say ……plus you have such a positive mindset and calm persona and the proof is in the pudding for you 😅

Amy I have really loved having you back in classes for “round two” as we say and especially as we had four other members of the gang with you too at the same time 😊 It’s been a blast and I do miss you 😢

What a beautiful family photo that really is with you and your lovely hubby and your two gorgeous girlies 💕💕

Enjoy them both my lovely and please don’t be a stranger ❌

Lots of love from me to you lovely lady 💕🥰🙏

And before I go to bed tonight let’s welcome to the world another set of gorgeous twins 💕💙

The third set from my classes this year 🙌🙌

It was such a shame that one set was in Harborne, another in Solihull and the third one in Sutton Coldfield 😅🙄🤣🤣

And as soon as Alex left my Sutton class ….we had Kylie join with her twins 😅

Anyway I made a little watsap group for them all to be in and I know they’ve really supported each other through their pregnancies and no doubt are still doing so now they all have their babies 🥰🥰

This is where I love technology and our phones 📞 They do have some benefits don’t they lol 😂

So introducing the gorgeous Lillian & Sebastian 💕💙

Aren’t they just adorable 🥰

Alex you also did so very well my lovely. I know you had quite a bit of pain in your hips and pelvis which was difficult for you …..but you made it all the way to 37 weeks carrying those two gorgeous munchkins, so hats off to you too 🙌💕

I hope you are recovering well and enjoying your instant beautiful family of four 4️⃣

We missed you today at Baby Massage, but can’t wait to see you again in a couple of weeks time 🕰️

Huge congratulations to you and of course lots of love from me 💕🥰🙏

So I’m going to strike whilst my iron is hot and I have a spare hour to get a couple more stories done 😊

Next up on my Harborne Pregnancy Yoga Class list is our lovely Becky Cross 💕and her gorgeous twins Alba and Fergus 💕💙

How cute do they look snuggled up next to each other 🙋‍♀️

Just adorable in every single way 💕💙

Carrying twins is NOT easy …..the aches, the pains, the worries and just everything a mom goes through literally is double that of a singleton pregnancy and for that reason twin moms do hold quite a special place in my heart ❤️

I’ve also noticed over the years that whenever I’ve had a twin mom in my class, they are also the calmest and very rarely complain about anything ……which I find truly amazing 🤩

Becky was certainly no exception and literally took it all in her stride and came to class right up until she had her babies 😅

Becky you have my utmost respect and admiration …… especially knowing you have a toddler at home too which is not easy ……a true inspiration 🙌💕

I do know you also really wanted to birth these babies naturally and I honestly believe if they had behaved and got themselves into more preferred positions ….. you would have done 😅

But of course we can’t be too hard on them as they did have limited space in there and they both decided bottoms up was the comfiest way for them both to share your womb 🥰

You made the right decision going for a planned section and this way you were able to have some control and a lovely calm and safe birth in theatre 😊

Becky I really loved having you in class and I still miss you now as you literally became part of the furniture 💕

Sending lots of love to you and I hope all is going well as a family of five for you 😅

Take care of yourself and don’t be a stranger lovely lady 💕🥰🙏

Hello it’s me …..finally back on Social Media to start to post some of your lovely Birthday Stories again at last 😅

I’m not sure if I’m the only one out here running classes who gets totally overwhelmed with the side of my work, but here it is in black and white - I D0 😅😩😢

I honestly don’t know how some people are so good at posting on here as I literally seem to either be doing a class, driving to a class, booking moms into classes …..or supporting moms in between classes and my socials are sadly at the bottom of my list 😩

BUT I’ve literally just started to make (a very long) list of Birth Stories to share with you and I’m on a mission ……well hopefully I am 😅🙄🤣🤣

Starting off with our lovely Jade from Harborne and her absolutely gorgeous little man …..pictured here with his clearly doting Daddy 💙💙💙

What can I say about Jade 🙋‍♀️

Well she joined us quite late in her pregnancy but slotted right in and as an anaesthetist was a huge asset to the class with any complicated questions 🙋‍♀️

Jade was all for a natural birth, and really was invested in this…. But as time went on things got more complicated with a projected big baby on board and she elected for a planned C Section 😷

But nature stepped in for Jade and she arrived at her last class complete with ruptured membranes for a few hours (much to my surprise) 😳 and I’m not going to lie when I was ready to give her my “put your big girl pants on “ talk ……however Jade assured me her waters were clear and she was going in for c section in the morning 😅🙏

And breathe Caron 😮‍💨

Nature then took control totally and Jade went into spontaneous labour that night and had a lovely safe vaginal birth 🙌🙌💕

I genuinely had thought to myself that this might happen: a) Because Jade had such a positive belief in her body and birth
B) Because of the relaxation and breathing at yoga
c) She spent her early labour surrounded by caring and lovely women 💕

Whatever the reason though I was just so happy for her 🙌🙌💕

Jade it was a pleasure to have you in both Pregnancy Yoga and also Mom & Baby Yoga ( yes this birth story is that old) 😅😩

We miss you and continue to send lots of love to you 💕🥰🙏
