💞 Membrane stretch and sweeps, yo have or not to have?

💞 Research shows low quality evidence it works, but more importantly its about you having informed choice, information and consent.

💞 We discuss this further during my hypnobirthing courses.

Membrane sweeping is a form of induction of labour.

A membrane sweep is also called a stretch and sweep, or sometimes just "a sweep."

It's an intervention that you may be offered towards the end of pregnancy.

As with all interventions, it's up to you whether you have it or not.

How does it work? A midwife or doctor will, while doing a vaginal examination, sweep a finger around and/or within the opening of your cervix (the lowest part of your womb).

As with all interventions, there are pros and cons. Membrane sweeping can cause pain, discomfort, bleeding and infection.

We don't really know if it works. Some studies show it may work. Others don't. The evidence is of low quality.

It is always a good idea to get informed
before you decide what's right for you.

If you'd like to know more, there's a blog post on membrane sweeping on www.sarawickham.com

It's called "What is a stretch and sweep?" and you can find it at https://www.sarawickham.com/articles-2/what-is-a-stretch-and-sweep/

In it, I explain more about membrane sweeping, the pros and cons and some of the things you might want to know before you decide whether or not it's right for you.

I hope it helps.

💞 Can Hypnobirthing be used for other things other than birth?

💞 100% YES and it should be 🙌

💞 I hear from so many people saying that hypnobirthing/birth prep is so expensive, and its something they just cant afford

💞 Its funny how when i was pregnant i spent absolutely ages looking for the right baby change, car seat, first outfit to wear, pram, sterilising equipment.

💞People spend an absolute fortune on having everything matching in the nursary.

💞 I get it, its your baby and you want everything to be perfect.....BUT

💞 What about your birth, what if you went in to your birth experience absolutely unprepared, not knowing anything about what could happen, or how to deal with things such as emergencies, pain, people telling you what to do.....

💞 The thing is with MY birth prep its not just a birthing course, its essential life tools that can be used long after a baby, i just relate them tools to pregnancy and birth.

💞 Your get your moneys worth with my course because not only am i still there to support you long after the course has finished BUT, when the nursary stuff has become outdated, and the steriliser is on Vinted, you will still be getting benefits of my course long after your baby has grown up.

💞 Today i used what i teach to go for a smear, to have bloods done earlier in the week, to go to the dentist ( which i hate)

💞 Hypnobirthing is essential not only for your birth but for the rest of your life.

💞 So please dont think its a waste of money ,or too expensive,its a great gift to recommend for a baby shower or to buy for baby.

💞 As if mum and dad is prepared for birth, thats is literally the best gift you can give.

Want to know more then drop me a WhatsApp 07310 660526 I would love to chat

Thanks Laura 🙏

💞 your birth your choice

💞 If you go in to your birth experience with your head in the sand, then you may find your birth is something that happened to you and not something you chose.

💞 Birth isnt like picking the right car seat, you dont get a 2nd chance.

💞 Evidence shows that by having a doula, doing a hypnobirthing course you are heading in to your birth experience, knowing how to have a voice in what you want, be an advocate for yourself, work towards your birth preferences, feeling more confident, dealing with those pain sensations better but most of all working towards birthing your baby your way because you are informed and have knowledge and tools in your back pocket to navigate anything that may happen.

💞 Dont think its too much money, start saving now, ask for a contribution as a baby shower gift, this is literally the best gift you could have... Where you go into your birth experience absolutely ready 🙌🙌 and not with your head in the sand.

💞 Tonight i am all ready to finish off a 4 week hypnobirthing course and another 4 couples are 100% more prepared and excited than 4 weeks ago 🙌🙌

💞 Want to know more how i can support you pre and postnatally? Then drop me a WhatsApp
