Why book an in-person class, as opposed to doing an online digital course?

Well..... me! Obviously! 🤩

Online digital packs are brilliant for delivering the content in easy to digest videos, and yes they are definitely the cheaper option! But if you’ve ever tried talking to your laptop, you’ll find it rarely answers you back!! 😉

Joining an in-person course means that not only will you learn heaps but you’ll get to have FUN doing it! All my courses are super interactive, engaging and totally tailored to you! You can ask me questions throughout the course and beyond. And you get to meet other expectant parents too!

And what’s more, if you book an in-person course with me you also get access to the absolutely MEGA digital pack created by the gang - so you’ve got the best of both worlds! 🙌🏻

Go on! What are you waiting for?

Hurrah for sun! 😎☀️

It was a glorious evening in Rowntree Park last night for our first pregnancy walk and talk! We strolled around the park chatting all things birth and postpartum before finding a bench in one of the beautiful gardens and cracking open the (non alcoholic) fizz and delicious muffins from

It was fantastic listening to talk about the importance of prioritising your own health during pregnancy and postpartum, including how to protect your pelvic floor, the importance of perineal massage and much more! I shared some of my top hypnobirthing tips and we talked about how you can empower your birth partner to be your biggest cheerleader and best advocate.

If you’d like to join us for our next walk and talk drop me a DM and I’ll add you to the list ❤️

What gets your oxytocin flowing?

I bloody love the smell of line-fresh washing! 🌾 It makes me feel calm and energized all at the same time!! (Although I don’t love the mountain of holiday washing that I am currently buried under!)

Don’t underestimate the power of smell during your labour. Whether you choose a nice calming essential oil, the smell of your toddler’s teddy or just your own pillowcase - make sure you’re birth space is smelling 👌🏼

Absolutely LOVING my new tee from the marvelous

What will your first meal be after giving birth?

Our friends sent us this epic sushi platter the day after we had our first baby. What a great gift and even better because it was a surprise and arrived just in time for dinner!

So next time your friends have a baby, don’t send a sleepsuit, send sushi!

^ reckon it’ll start trending? 😉

Here is Mr TMC doing kangaroo care with the twinklets at around 2 weeks old 💕

I’ve posted about the benefits of skin to skin before, and this is even more important if your baby/babies are in NICU.

These were the hardest days of our lives but looking back at photos, there were so many very special moments ✨

Get. Informed. 💪🏻

I can’t shout this loud enough people!! You can’t possibly make the best decisions for you and your baby if you don’t have all the information.

Informed is best by is a great place to start. As she says on the back “This isn’t a book that is going to tell you which decision to make, or that there is ever one right answer...it is a guide to help you evaluate information and evidence to decide what is right for you, your body and your baby”

It’s so important to cut through the crap surrounding pregnancy and birth, ignore what Aunt Shelia says or what happened to Becky down the road!

Do your research, make your own decisions and feel empowered!

I have this book and many many more available to loan to all my hypnobirthing clients 📚 Head to the link in my bio to bag your spot on the July group course!

You’re having a baby! Congratulations!!

Excited to become parents but feeling anxious and maybe even a little bit clueless about birth?

This course will help you feel calm at the prospect of birthing your baby, confident in your body and its ability to give birth and excited about the incredible journey you are about to embark on!

We will cover the science and physiology of birth, equip you with a whole toolkit of hypnobirthing techniques to use in labour, talk about your birth choices, how to write your birth plan and how you can make informed decisions at every stage of the process.

We'll also cover what to pack in your birth bag, how to create the optimum birthing environment and we have a whole section dedicated to the super important role of a birth partner! All this and much much more (including a goody bag, obvs!)

Come and join me! Make friends, have a laugh and get excited about the birth of your baby!

🤩 This is my placenta! 🤩

MCDA twins (monochorionic diamniotic) twins share one placenta with a single outer membrane and two inner membranes.

I knew I definitely wanted to see the placenta from my twin pregnancy and it was even more impressive in the flesh (pardon the pun!) than I had anticipated.

I decided to allow my placenta to be sent off for tests due to some issues towards the end of my pregnancy, but there is LOADS you can choose to do with your placenta!

👉🏼 Look at it and take pics
👉🏼 Bury it in the garden and plant a tree
👉🏼 Blend it into a smoothie
👉🏼 Create beautiful artwork with it
👉🏼 Make it into jewellery
👉🏼 Have it encapsulated
👉🏼 Ask your midwife to dispose of it for you

The list goes on!

Whatever you decide to do, have a think about it in advance and make sure you get it down in your birth preferences!

Siblings at birth 👫

There are still sooooo many restrictions on visitors in hospital at the moment, certainly in the UK (don’t even get me started!), meaning that it’s often not until you bring baby home that their siblings get to meet the much anticipated arrival!

It was over a month before H got to meet the twins as they were in NICU, and I’m pretty sure at times she thought I was making them up 😂

One hugeeee bonus of a homebirth is if you would like to have your children present for the birth, or straight afterwards, then you absolutely can! And what an incredibly beautiful and powerful way to normalise childbirth for the next generation. ✨

Lots of people also say that having their children present gave them a huge oxytocin boost and really helped to move labour along 💕

I’M BACK!!

I’ve been taking a little break from the gram for a while... 9 months to be exact!

I still can’t quite believe I’m writing this but WE HAD TWINS! 🤯

We are totally, head over heels in love with our little twinklets and to say life has been busy is an understatement! We’ve been enjoying an oxytocin filled fourth trimester and settling in to our new crazy life as a family of 5!

I think the newborn fog is slowly beginning to lift 🥴 and I’m so excited to rejoin this community of birthy loveliness and get back to doing what I love 💕

Watch this space for more updates soon, including details of our first ever IN PERSON hypnobirthing and birth preparation classes in York! 🎉
