Pregnant peeps of Sheffield! On May 18th we’re holding a fantastic new event, centred around preparing for the first six weeks with a newborn baby.

Held in my welcoming home in Nether Edge, we’ll get together and discuss all the things that so many new parents wish they had known. From normal infant behaviour, to establishing milk supply, to maximising rest, nourishing your body after birth and getting your support system in place – nothing is off limits!

We’ll be cooking up a storm for lunch also, with nourishing hearty foods that you’ll want to batch cook ahead of baby’s arrival!

Space is LIMITED so for that reason, we are inviting pregnant people only to this event (no birth partners). See you there!

We're back on Monday 11th March at 8.30pm for an online pregnancy relaxation and info session.
This is a great way to start your week with calm and clarity, from the comfort of your own home (and PJs!)

In the first half of the session we'll be dispelling some common pregnancy and birth myths (and how to handle them), followed by a guided relaxation to get you feeling chilled and ready to roll into bed.

Tickets are donations based, pay as you feel. All proceeds will be donated to the Palestine Red Crescent Society:

I can't wait to begin supporting clients with this vital knowledge - helping them prepare their body during pregnancy for optimal positioning of their baby, and to offer the techniques during birth to aid the progression of labour.
Our bodies and instincts do most of the work, but sometimes just making a millimetre of space can make a huge difference!
As well as learning so much my brain felt FULL, my heart also felt fit to burst after spending a day with this group of passionate birth workers ✨

There are so many reasons why I'm proud to be a trained doula! Firstly, the training I received was INCREDIBLE. Not only did the course equip me with the knowledge to do an amazing job as a doula, but it also RADIATED with the TBU ethos throughout. The ethos that EVERY birthing person deserves to have a positive birth experience. That every birthing person should be fully informed and supported, so that THEY can make decisions that are right for them and their baby. That their decisions, and the birthing person themselves, are fully respected.

I am now part of an amazing community of birth workers who are fiercely passionate about ensuring that people know their rights during birth, and work tirelessly to protect these rights during pregnancy and labour. I am so proud to be TBU!

During pregnancy OPTIONAL choices can often be presented as non-negotiable ones. Induction for a presumed "big baby" is one of them. But this is still your choice! One of my all time favourite birth educators is and I've used information from her website to put together some information on the topic to get you started. As ever, please do research it further if this is a situation you are facing as it really is your choice and making it in an informed, empowered way is your right!

It's hard not to get fixated on the magical estimated due date during pregnancy, but do you know where this concept originated from? Or how much other factors are - or AREN'T - taken into account?
Ditch the dates and remember that your baby will come when it is ready 💜
