Massage2nurture Does pregnancy leave you feeling like a beached whale, with nausea? Tired, aching, emotional, stressed, sad, happy, unsure! Maybe its time for a massage.

Does pregnancy leave you feeling like a beached whale with morning sickness? Tired, achy, emotional, sad, happy, unsure? Does your newborn seem to be unsettled, unhappy, constipated, or just seem to love the sense of touch? Perhaps I can help. As a Mum of two, and a trained massage therapist since 1998, I am trying to blend my massage skills and my newly acquired knowledge since becoming a Mum. My pregnancies, although straightforward, saw me approaching life in very different emotional states, and perhaps consequently I had two very different newborns to learn with. During my pregnancies, if I had known a massage therapist trained in pregnancy massage, I would certainly have used them. Especially if, as in massage2nurtures case, I could have had treatment in the luxury of my own home. My background in sports rehabilitation and massage expects me to have excellent knowledge of anatomy and soft tissue injuries. During pregnancy, although not injured, your muscles, ligament and joints are under great stress as your body shape changes and adapts for baby to grow. So why not treat yourself to some TLC? It may just help you to unwind, alleviate stress, aid sleep and give you some “me time” to prepare for the excitement that lies ahead. Once baby arrives, as well providing a very welcome support session, perhaps it is babes turn for massage. I attended baby massage classes with my first born, and I admit I was sceptical that I would need guidance in massaging MY baby, being that I was already a trained masseur of many years. However it gave me the time to connect and bond with him, and taught me many new strokes that I would never have performed otherwise. His colic and constipation eased, and we continued the sessions at home to great effect. Once my daughter arrived I started to apply my skills to her, not to relieve any symptoms, as she was a very settled baby, but simply to enhance her love of touch. If you feel you would like help with your pregnancy, or with your newborn, please feel free to contact me. I will travel and do home visits within a 5 mile radius of Camberley at no additional cost. If there are a group of you requiring training in baby massage that can be a cheaper alternative to my services. I look forward to meeting you,
Best wishes
Sarah Batey.

“When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mothers bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called “fetal-maternal microchimerism”.⁠

For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mothers tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades. Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too.

Even if a pregnancy doesn't go to full term or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into your bloodstream.

Research has shown that if a mother's heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the site of the injury and change into different types of cells that specialize in mending the heart.

The baby helps repair the mother, while the mother builds the baby.

How cool is that?

This is often why certain illnesses vanish while pregnant.

It’s incredible how mothers bodies protect the baby at all costs, and the baby protects & rebuilds the mother back - so that the baby can develop safely and survive.

Think about crazy cravings for a moment. What was the mother deficient in that the baby made them crave?

Studies have also shown cells from a fetus in a mothers brain 18 years after she gave birth. How amazing is that?”

If you’re a mom you know how you can intuitively feel your child even when they are not there….Well, now there is scientific proof that moms carry them for years and years even after they have given birth to them.

I find this to be so very beautiful.

Hi there everyone.

I'm excited to be bringing my website to life over the coming weeks. However, I'm looking for a expectant couple that would be interested in receiving one of my courses and be included in my branding photoshoot by the talented Jo de Magneval Photography.

The course will be offered at 20% discount and you can choose from any on offer.

The couple would need to be available in the day time (at a mutually convenient time) weekday or Saturday. And be happy to appear on my website, branding material and social media.

If you'd like to have a further chat or more details get in touch via DM or email despina@surreybirthingsupport.co.uk

Looking forward to it already!
