The answer is…ALL FO THEM!

Before any procedure is booked, it should first be offered with an in-depth discussion of the rationale, risks, benefits, and alternatives. You should also know exactly what is involved — otherwise, how can you really know what you’re agreeing to? Getting informed consent is not optional. It is a legal obligation for healthcare professionals. These conversations must be explained clearly and documented so there is evidence of what was said.

Induction of labour is not a single step, but a series of procedures that usually flow into each other. It’s not enough to say “we’ll do a balloon induction” when we know most people will also need hormones or an artificial rupture of membranes. This should be made clear from the beginning, because it might influence your decision.

At every stage of induction, the midwife should explain the procedure that is about to happen, including risks and benefits, and invite questions. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, so revisiting the discussion before each step is essential. Saying yes at the start does not mean you cannot change your mind later.

You don’t have to remember everything all at once, and you don’t need to have all the answers straight away. It’s completely okay to pause, ask for more information, or take time to think. These are your decisions, and you should feel supported throughout the process. 💪🏻💪🏻❤️🫶💜

My Parent Hood is officially 3 years old… THREE YEARS! 🥳

When I started this little side project, I honestly thought it would just be “a small antenatal class side thing.” But… it’s become so much more than that. It’s changed how I practice as a midwife, how I see birth, and how I view maternity care.

This year has brought some exciting changes too — with every course fully booked (and a few even overbooked), plus the launch of a new course book and my own Hypnobirth tracks. The feedback has been so encouraging, and I’m really grateful for the way these additions have been received. I’ve also been busier than ever with 1:1s — supporting families to feel empowered, confident, and heard in their care.

That’s only been possible because of your ongoing support. Every share, like, message, and recommendation truly helps this little community grow, and I’m so thankful for it. 💛

Over these 3 years, I’ve learnt so much. Hearing birth stories and experiences has opened my eyes even more to what maternity care feels like through women’s perspectives. I’ve been stretched, challenged, humbled — and I keep learning. I’m always reading, always growing, always trying to do better.

And as if that wasn’t enough excitement, 2025 began with a new role: Multiple Pregnancy & Preterm Birth Midwife. 🌟
I’m loving developing services that work for families, and the joy of following the same faces through pregnancy is just… soul food.

Here’s to another year of learning, growing, and celebrating the power of birth and parenthood. 🫶

Let’s talk about your birth environment — wherever you’re birthing.

Birth hormones like oxytocin and endorphins don’t flow in cold, clinical, high-stress spaces. They thrive in warmth, quiet, comfort, and safety. So create that — wherever you are.

Hospital, home, birth centre — doesn’t matter. It’s your space. You’ve got way more power to shape it than you think.

Here are 5 ways to take control of your birth environment (yes, even in a hospital room):

💡Dim the lights
Harsh lights can make your body feel on alert — not ideal when you’re trying to open up and let labour flow. Turn off the overheads. Bring in soft, warm lighting (battery candles, fairy lights, whatever works). Birth needs mammal vibes, not surgery suite.

😌Claim the space
Bring your stuff. That means your own pillow, music, cozy socks, snacks, affirmations — anything that tells your brain “this is safe.” Move furniture if it helps. Hospitals won’t always offer — but you can always ask.

👯‍♂️Choose your people
Only bring folks who make you feel stronger, not smaller. If they stress you out, second-guess you, or take up space you need for yourself — they don’t belong in the room. Birth energy is real. Protect it.

👃🏾Engage your senses
What smells calm you? What sounds ground you? What textures help you relax? Essential oils, playlists, warm blankets — these aren’t luxuries. They’re tools to keep you anchored. And birth happens best when you’re in your body, not your head.

❓Move + ask questions
You can walk, squat, moan, get in the shower — even in a hospital. You can ask for lights off, interruptions minimised. You’re allowed to treat the room like it’s yours. Because it is. For this moment — this is your home.

This one’s for the birth partners, doulas, best friends, chosen family, lovers, and ride-or-dies. You’ve been invited into sacred space — now the question is: Are you ready?

💥 Are you educated on the physiology of birth?
💥 Are you prepped to support with strength, softness, and skill?
💥 Do you know the birther’s wishes, their fears, their vision?
💥 Can you set up a birth space that screams safety, comfort, power?
💥 Do you know your breathing cues, touch techniques, and how to keep your own nervous system calm?
💥 Are you ready to advocate when needed — lovingly, fiercely, unapologetically?
💥 Do you understand how to support feeding, newborn care, and the deep emotional shifts of postpartum?

This isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. About showing up educated, prepared, and ready to hold it down when things get real.

So… birth support team — are you ready to bring the badass? Join us on The Antenatal Course - Let’s do this!!
