The weekend papers and news feeds are again filled with stories designed to fill us with fear about birth.

Sadly, it's a regular thing. No matter whether they're on the web, in the papers or on TV, these stories are written to be scary and focused on risk. They are designed to instill fear and undermine women’s confidence in their own bodies and babies.

Here are a few things that you should bear in mind when reading these headlines and the associated stories.

1. Both the originator of the research and the people who turn it into a story want to get the headline and the story to spread as far and wide as possible. Their job isn't to help you make an informed decision about what is right for you.

2. The goal of getting maximum publicity for a research finding or story is sometimes achieved by taking a sensationalist stance. Key facts may be glossed over, shared in a misleading way or left out completely.

3. Risk and fear sell news very quickly. There are many, many studies showing that birth is safe and that women's bodies are marvellously good at growing, birthing and feeding babies. But these don't make exciting headlines, and they don't make nearly as many people read, click and share. So they are often ignored.

4. There is almost never any discussion of the bigger picture or the wider context, either of the study or situation itself or of other work that has been done on the same topic. We need more information than can be found in the headlines.

5. In reality, research and report findings are never certain. All studies have limitations. Sadly, the complexity and the uncertainty gets compromised in favour of those risk-filled headlines which make you want to click, read and share.

Stay calm.

Remember that the job of the media is to sell headlines, not to help people making pregnancy and birth decisions.

Breathe.

Get informed.

And then make the decision that's right for you.

Well obviously we're biased and say every pregnant woman should try yoga but the science agrees! The breath, movement and relaxation techniques we practice help:

💫 increase vaginal delivery rate

💫 decrease premature delivery rate

💫 shorten 1st and 2nd stage of labour

“Prenatal yoga is an effective complementary medicine to improve delivery outcomes and not to increase the risk of fetus, which is worth recommending to pregnant women.” Rong et al, 2020

Plus meet local mums to be and start to build that all important community.

And it really is a practice…the more we practice these techniques in pregnancy the more they will become like second nature when it comes to your birth - one of the formative experiences of your life.
Take some time out and savour this precious time and reap the benefits later!

HELLOOOO 👋….
A warm welcome to my new followers & high time to introduce myself again!
💖
I am Dulcie, Mamma of 4 & totally lit up by my work with Mammas connecting them with their Body, Mind & Soul POWER during pregnancy, birth and beyond. Moving you towards birthing & beyond as the Goddess 👸 that you are!
💖
5 facts about me:
😗I could whistle before I could talk – like really whistle – people used to stop my Mamma in literal astonishment at my whistling self in my pram!!
🍳I have a totally weird relationship with eggs – they can be my favourite or my worst food – thrill my tastebuds or make me gag – I never know how I will be until the egg is infront of me, waiting on the plate!!
⛵️My Dad made me my first boat – a tiny Optimist called Grapefruit – when I was 8 – I loved her and am so grateful to inherit his love of sailing & boats.
🌊 I sailed half way around the world in 2009 with my husband and my eldest 2 kids who were 3 and 4. It was an incredible, stand out year where I tuned into my soul self & began my meditation & yoga practice which has been an almost daily source of delight ever since.
💃I am a dancer at heart - it is one of the surest routes to Joy!
💖
I am your LushTums teacher in Bournemouth & Poole & in person teaching sessions for groups & 1:2:1 yoga are back for: Pregnancy; Postnatal Mamma & Baby; & Mamma yoga - book your spot via link in bio.
