WATERY FACTS DURING PREGNANCY

During Pregnancy
💦Amniotic fluid is mostly water: The baby grows inside a fluid-filled sac, and this fluid is about 98% water, protecting and cushioning the baby.
💦Hydration matters a lot: Pregnant women need more water because it helps form amniotic fluid, supports the placenta, and aids circulation.
💦Water helps prevent complications: Staying hydrated can reduce risks like constipation, urinary infections, and even preterm contractions.

At Birth
💦”Water breaking”: This refers to the rupture of the amniotic sac, releasing fluid before or during labor.
💦Babies are born very watery: Newborns are about 75–80% water, much higher than adults (~60%).
💦First breath replaces fluid: Before birth, a baby’s lungs are filled with fluid. At birth, that fluid is quickly cleared as the baby takes their first breaths.

After Birth
💦Delayed bathing is recommended: Newborns aren’t bathed immediately so they can keep the vernix caseosa (a white, waxy coating), which helps protect their skin.
💦Breast milk is mostly water: Around 85–90% of breast milk is water, so babies usually don’t need extra water in the first 6 months.

Beautiful Spring mother and daughter gathering 🌿

The sun makes all the difference to how we connect and play.

Washing was out and with the help of the girls made lovely personified seed baby’s 🩷

Feeling grateful for friendships and connection.

I hope you are all enjoying the sun and able to relax and enjoy your time.

Happy International Women’s Day……

I’d love to know…

What is something a woman in your life taught you that has stayed with you?

When life gets sticky, I remember my Grandma Ada who lived until 106 through two world wars, grew her own veges, liked a brandy, lived on her own until 105 and enjoyed her own company. She was quoted in an article saying the secret to life was “to work hard and have a contented mind” I think there’s more to it but this is one of my mantras.

To all the sistas who have walked before us, taken the road less travelled and paved the way…..to all the women today that lift other women up…. and to all the women yet to be birthed into the world.

Remembering dear friends that have travelled on through the veil and guide us from afar. Thinking of all the women that have fought to be heard, cried in silence, battled on and held others up to do the same.

Through birth life and death, let us empower and be empowered by each other 🩷

What is your relationship like with yourself?

This is a love letter to all women.....I’m sitting by the fire, freshly bathed, a hot chai warming my hands, my laptop open in front of me. Before I write a single word, I pause and check in with how I feel.What I notice first is gratitude. Not the materialistic kind, the kind that comes from havi...

Yin & Tonic — Spring Cleanse for Women 🌿

A gentle reset for body, mind, and nervous system as we move into a new season.

This workshop weaves together yin yoga, sauna, and cold dipping — a powerful rhythm of release, renewal, and awakening.

✨ Yin yoga invites deep rest and slow opening. Long, nourishing holds support fascia, encourage circulation, and create space where we’ve been holding tension.

✨Sauna brings warmth, softness, and flow. Supporting detoxification, easing muscles, and helping the body let go — physically and emotionally.

✨Cold dip awakens and invigorates. A refreshing shift that boosts circulation, sharpens presence, and leaves you feeling clear, energised, and alive.

Together, these practices create a natural spring cleanse — supporting the body’s own rhythms of renewal and helping you step into the season feeling lighter, clearer, and more balanced.

A space to soften.
A space to reset.
A space to welcome new energy.

Come and cleanse, restore, and rise with the season, finish off with a chai latte and a chat.

Today felt really special 🤍

I had the honour of holding space in a private yin class for two women I deeply admire — my yoga teacher and an experienced doula who have both inspired me along my own journey.

To offer them the same stillness, care, and presence they’ve given to others (and to me) felt beautifully full-circle… and deeply humbling.

I absolutely love holding space for the nervous system to reset and reconnect with self. It is my love. Nurturing others also reminds me to nurture myself so my cup is always full!

Grateful for the wisdom they share, the paths they’ve opened, and the reminder that holding space is always a mutual exchange.
