✨You’re not going to wake up one day feeling fully ready. I waited for that moment. It never came - so let’s just take that pressure off, shall we?
✨The version of you actually in labour? She’s a different breed. So much more capable than you’ll ever give her credit for beforehand. Just trust she’ll show up when you need her.
✨When your brain starts running little “what if…” scenarios at 11pm… that’s usually just your brain trying to imagine something it hasn’t done before.
✨ Coping doesn’t have to mean being quiet or serene… it can also look like shouting, swearing, asking for support, asking for all the drugs… one tiny step at a time
✨And remember - if I can do it, you can do it too. I massively overthought birth bit both times.
If you’re excited to meet your baby but your brain is busy running “oh sh*t, I actually have to give birth” loops…
Hit follow. You’re in the right place.
