The benefits of skin to skin for newborns have been widely studied, however a Cochrane review released this week has now gone one step further and concluded that the benefits of skin to skin have been so validated in so many research studies, that it would now be unethical to conduct further randomised control trials to compare skin to skin contact with separation of mum and baby after birth 🌟

Uninterrupted skin to skin immediately after birth as standard care is recommended by WHO and UNICEF, and while this is common practice in homebirths and midwifery led care, in a hospital setting this may not always be the case. Be prepared to advocate for this for you and your baby, as long as all is well.

If you are due a baby in 2026 and have yet to do any birth prep, this is for you!

Make the time for yourself and your birth partner to get informed, meet like-minded local couples, spend time connecting with your baby and ultimately feel confident and ready for birth.

Have you heard that you should be eating tons of dates in pregnancy?

Research has shown eating dates in late pregnancy to be effective at
💥 Increasing cervical dilation
💥 Shortening the length of the first stages of labour
💥 Reducing the need for induction

So how many?

6 dates a day, from 36 weeks pregnant. That’s a lot of dates, which are a bit of an acquired taste!

If you’ve got any yummy date recipes for those that aren’t so keen, share them in the comments!

🍂 Autumn classes now booking 🍂

Your birth experience is too important to just wing it, or hope for the best. It’s time to invest in yourself in your baby and get yourself feeling informed, confident and ready to birth.

Bring your birth partner and join me and other local pregnant couples for four weeks of discussion, connection and preparation - and leave ready to ‘bring it on!’
