🤰🏻Are you pregnant? Do you know someone who is pregnant and needs to know this? 🤰🏻

Hypnobirthing can be birth changing and can increase your odds of having a positive birth experience. The tools and techniques that you will learn are easy and suitable for anyone (even birth partners). They are also for ALL births, including induced births, epidurals and c-sections.

With the magic of hypnobirthing, you can feel in control, calm and confident during labour. It can be used as a form of pain relief, as a coping mechanism and informing you and educating you about labour and birth.

It will really change your mindset about birth and help you to feel positive about your birth, going from feeling anxious to excited!

My June Group hypnobirthing course is already starting to get bookings and my diary is currently open for private 1-1 clients too. Don’t wait until it’s too late! ⏰

Today I’ve been at Gledhow wing, at St James’s University Hospital. I was on J03, which is delivery suite and I got to see lots of gorgeous new little newborn babies. 🥰

I really felt the huge amount of oxytocin on the ward today, as new parents had just welcomed their tiny little baby’s into the world. Every parent I spoke to was so thankful to the staff and said that they felt incredibly grateful.

There was a lot of praise and thanks to the student midwives, who really made the parents feel well supported and well looked after.

The biggest take away for me today, was how each birth had been very different, from inductions, epidurals, theatre births and natural, drug free births. Yet, every parent felt like they’d had a positive experience and said that they were able to make their own informed decisions and choices.

A positive experience looks different to different people and the thing that makes it a positive experience, is by being able to make your own informed decisions.

If you’d like any birth preparation support and would like me to help you to make your own informed decisions, then please visit my website and see how I can support you.

Induction of labour and caesarean sections are on the rise in the UK! Do you know your local hospital’s rates for induction and caesarean sections?

Since the NICE guidelines changed in 2021, there has been an increase in induction rates and caesarean sections.

There has never been a more important time to do birth preparation, than now! Make sure that you are able to make informed decisions about your birth and that your birth is a positive experience.

Read my latest blog post on Induction of labour in the UK and why we are seeing an increase.

Are you looking for support during pregnancy, birth, postpartum or pre-conception? I can help you…

Hi 👋🏻 I’m Julia and I’m a Doula UK recognised birth & postnatal Doula and a qualified Hypnobirthing Teacher. The whole journey of becoming a parent can be challenging, from the pre-conception period, to pregnancy, to birth and to postpartum. There is a lot to learn, a lot to navigate and a lot to manage emotionally and physically. Very often we can find ourselves trying to figure it all out on our own and that isn’t easy and it isn’t how it needs to be.

As a Doula, I can support you from before you’ve even had that positive pregnancy test. The journey to becoming pregnant isn’t always easy for some people and it can be incredibly lonely, emotional and difficult. Whether you are trying for a baby naturally and not seeing positive results, I can be there for you and to help you through it. If you’re having IVF this can also be incredibly turbulent and can create a whole load of emotions. Unfortunately until you are pregnant, there is very little support from professionals and it can feel very lonely. However, I can be there for you, offering emotional support and teaching you tools and techniques on how to manage this period of time in your life. Helping you to stay positive and have someone there, to hold your hand all the way.

During pregnancy, I can support you with birth preparation, antenatal classes and hypnobirthing courses. I can help you to prepare your mind for birth, feel calm, relaxed and in control.

During your birth, I can be there for you and your partner. Helping you to have a positive birth experience in ways that you choose. Having a birth doula present at your birth, can significantly increase your odds of a positive experience and reduce the need for intervention.

Once you’ve had your baby, I can offer you postnatal support. Helping you through those early challenging days of becoming a parent and make things feel a little bit easier. Whether it’s emotional support and/or physical support, the choice is yours.

If you or someone you know, could benefit from my support, please get in touch.

Today I’m walking the patch at LGI, on MAC and Antenatal ward. Lots of positive feedback from families using Leeds Maternity Services. Common themes that I hear from families are: “The staff are wonderful.” “Nothing is too much” and “I feel so well cared for.”

When asking families how they found getting through to MAC on the phone lines, it was mixed feedback. The Trust are aware that patients can often be ringing for a while, before the phone is answered and they will be introducing a new system soon, to improve this service.

How have you found your care, when using Maternity Services at Leeds? Let me know.

Having a baby in 2024? Started to think about this year’s summer holiday? STOP!!✋

How much effort do you put into planning a holiday? Making sure it’s everything you want, for a wonderful trip away. Hours of researching the local area, the good hotels, the local cuisine.

How much effort have you put into preparing for your birth? You’ve probably been looking at the different pram options (& becoming more and more confused and overwhelmed), the car seats, deciding on a colour scheme for baby’s room etc.

But, what about the birth? Have you thought about that? The birth options, a birth plan, understanding the birth process, your body, how to feel calm, in control and confident. How you’ll manage any discomfort and what pain management options are there? What are the pros/cons? How will you navigate the maternity system and ensure that you make the decisions that are right for you? How will your partner advocate for you and know how to support you? What if your ideal birth plan goes off course? Do you have an alternative plan that will still give you a positive birth experience?

So many people go into birth unprepared and can have negative experiences because of that and this can then affect them for the rest of their lives.

Yes, birth is a natural thing and your body knows what to do, but that doesn’t mean that your mind always knows what to do. The mind body connection plays a big part in birth and we need to train the mind during pregnancy, ready for the big day. Just like training for a marathon or sports game. “A positive mindset increases positive outcomes!” Plus, in today’s world, we are part of a complicated maternity system, which means that a lot of decisions that are made about our care, are made based on policies and “the average person”. Who is the average person?? We’re all different, so we need to make our own decisions and not follow a one size fits all approach. And yes, you can challenge your maternity care, you can say no to options that are offered to you. Your body, your baby. Your care provider does not control you!

Head over to my website, where you can find out more on how I can support you.

What’s the difference between doing an online self taught Hypnobirthing course, reading a Hypnobirthing book and doing an Instructor led Hypnobirthing course?

There are many differences and you can decide for yourself what feels right for you.

However, if you want to make sure that you have the best chance of a positive birth experience, you are best doing an instructor led course. Whether this is in a group setting or 1-1, it doesn’t matter. You can decide what suits your needs best.

I have my next group Hypnobirthing course starting in January and dates are already available to book for my March group course too. Head to my website for further details.

If a private 1-1 course is more your thing, get in touch and we can arrange a time that suits us both, for your sessions.

If you’re currently pregnant and wondering what Hypnobirthing is and what the fuss is all about, get in touch for a free 30 minute consultation. We can have a chat and I can tell you more about how Hypnobirthing can change your birth and your life and help you to have a positive experience.

It doesn’t matter what type of birth you are planning, Hypnobirthing is for ALL births and for everyone! I have a FREE introduction to Hypnobirthing video, that you can download from my website and learn more about what Hypnobirthing is and how it can help you.

Visit my website for more details or get in touch with me today.

Don’t leave your labour and birth down to chance. With my support, it can really help you to make informed decisions, feel calm, confident and in control. You won’t necessarily have the birth that you plan for, but it can increase your odds of having a positive experience.
