She chooses, always has, and always will !
Millions of s***m cells, launching themselves like Olympic athletes in a desperate race toward the egg. Only the fastest, the strongest, the most tenacious wins.
The prize? Fertilization.
Epic music, applause, end of story.

But that story is, in large part, a myth.
A myth rooted in a male-centered view of reproduction.

Thanks to a 2020 study, we now know that the egg is not at all a passive trophy waiting at the finish line.
It’s an active, powerful, selective protagonist.
The egg communicates. And chooses.

It releases chemical signals — so-called chemoattractants — to attract the s***m it prefers.
And the others? It sends repellent signals.
It slows them down, blocks them, discards them.

Even cervical mucus, especially type L mucus, acts as a filter: it blocks weaker or lower-quality s***m from progressing.
A selection that happens upstream. No race. No lottery.

As researcher Fitzpatrick explained:
“The follicular fluid of one woman attracted the s***m of one man better, while that of another woman attracted the s***m of a different man better.”
Translation?
It’s about compatibility. About choice.

It’s her body. It’s her decision. Even at the molecular level.

And once the lucky s***m has been chosen,
when it begins to pe*****te the egg...

The egg releases a substance that immediately destroys the heads of all the other s***m cells.
Yes: a mass chemical decapitation.
No second chances. No wildcards.
Only the one she chose.

Oh, and the perfect ending?
The s***m: the smallest cell in the human body.
The egg: the largest.
Who’s really been in control all along?

Her.
Always her.

It’s time to tell this story the right way.
Reproduction is not a race.
It’s a conversation.
And she’s always had the final word.

Women have the right to choose how they give birth. Learn how to stand strong in your decisions and create a birth experience that honors your instincts.

Women have been giving birth for thousands of years. And despite modern systems that often push protocols over personalization, the truth remains: you don’t need permission to birth the way your body is designed to.

Whether you choose a home birth, a natural hospital birth, or anything in between, it’s your right to make the decisions that serve you best. That includes declining interventions, choosing your care provider, and shaping your birth plan around your values—not someone else’s preferences.

You are not just a patient—you are a woman stepping into one of life’s most powerful moments. Your voice matters. Your instincts matter. Your choices matter.

No one is allowed to not allow you.

From Fear to Confidence: The Power of a Positive Birth Experience

Pregnancy and childbirth can feel overwhelming. Maybe you've heard stories that make you believe birth is only painful and difficult. Maybe you feel tension about the unknown path ahead.

But this is exactly where the transformation begins.

When I guide women on their journey from "birth sucks" to a birth that feels like a powerful, positive experience, it’s not just a process. It is a profound shift in consciousness —a journey through doubts and fears, towards confidence and strength.

Just like with a major project you build yourself, this journey requires preparation, courage, and perseverance. It sometimes means letting go of what you thought you knew and making space for a new approach. You will feel resistance, moments of doubt where you may want to retreat. But this is where the key lies: not stopping when it gets challenging, but moving forward and discovering how strong you truly are.

I am not here to give you the 'easiest' path by removing all obstacles, but to guide you so you discover your own strength. To show you that birth is not something that just 'happens' to you, but an experience where you are in control. Where you, together with your baby, go through a process that is magical and transformative.

And do you know what the most beautiful part is? That proud smile, that deep feeling of satisfaction when you realize what you have achieved. When you look back and think, "Wow, I did this."

Women "relearn" how birth can be an experience of power and confidence. Taking back their birth power.

Do you want to experience this transformation yourself? Do you want to learn how to approach your birth with confidence, release your fears, and embrace childbirth as a beautiful experience? Send me a dm.

Turn your birth experience into a powerful, positive memory. You can do this. And I am here to guide you.

It’s World Doula Week! And while many are celebrating the profession, I want to celebrate you—the parents who chose to walk this path with intention.

The ones who saw birth as more than a moment to “get through.” Who knew it wasn’t just about bringing a baby earthside, but about stepping into parenthood with awareness, connection, and trust.

Choosing a doula isn’t just about support—it’s about saying yes to a deeper experience. One where birth is honored, not rushed. Where fears are met with guidance. Where you’re held, seen, and empowered to welcome your baby fully present.

So today, I celebrate all the parents who said yes to this journey. Who embraced the unknown. Who understood that birth isn’t just about the baby—it’s about all of you.

💛 If you had a doula by your side, share your experience below—I’d love to hear how they supported you!

It is simple, if you are thinking of hiring Margaretha to be your supports person during pregnancy and birth, do it!

Me and my husband started to look for a doula when we got closer to the end of my pregnancy, late summer 2023. We are both foreigners and do not speak Italian fluently. We had a good experience of being pregnant, but as giving birth came closer, we were worried for the language and not understanding the process in Italy properly.

I found Margaretha online, and we took her hypnobirthing class during the fall 2023. We spent two days with her and we got hooked.

Margareta has a huge heart, and she listens and meets you on the level you need her to support on, so who ever you are and what you are looking for, you will work great with Margareta. In the beginning, I was looking for support on language and giving birth preparations, but in the end, Margaretha became both our metal & life coach, our second opinion go-to person, and our friend.

We didn't realize how much support we actually needed...

She knows a lot of people and has a lot of useful knowledge about hospitals, ways of working in Italy, and the Italian healthcare system. One of the most important choices she pushed/supported us in doing was to change the hospital, and for that, I will always be very thankful!

At the end, I ended up doing a caesarian due to that our baby was in breach position, but with out Margareta I would not have had the great experience that I had, of giving birth in Italy, this I am sure about!

Thank you, Margareta, for everything.

Hello, I’m Margaretha, a dedicated HypnoBirthing teacher since 2014 and a doula since 2015, based in northern Italy.My own pregnancy journey in Italy was eye-opening. Coming from the Netherlands, I quickly realized that the medical system here felt overwhelming, almost as if pregnancy was treated like an illness with countless tests and exams. It left me feeling lost and out of place.That’s when I began to compare the Dutch and Italian systems, and a new perspective emerged. I made bold choices during my pregnancy—I decided to part ways with my gynecologist, whose approach only added stress, and instead, I turned to midwifery care. There, I was truly seen and heard. Each visit was an hour-long experience of genuine care, unlike the rushed, impersonal appointments I had before.Going through pregnancy, childbirth, and becoming a mother in a foreign country has profoundly shaped me. It gave me a unique insight into the intricacies of both the Dutch and Italian healthcare systems, and this knowledge, combined with my 10 years of experience working in one of the largest hospitals in the Netherlands, allows me to navigate and adapt to the protocols here in a way that feels right for you. I understand how to help you make informed decisions that align with your needs, just as I did for myself.My mission is to be your guide during your pregnancy abroad, ensuring you feel as supported and empowered as you would back home. Because I understand the challenges of becoming a parent in a new country, I’ve turned my own struggles into a source of strength. My purpose is to provide couples with the support, guidance, and knowledge that I didn’t have when I needed it most. This is my calling—to help you navigate the Italian healthcare system, understand your options, and empower you every step of the way.With much love,
Margaretha

When You Fully Stand in your (pregnancy and birthing) Power, it's going to annoy a sh*tload of people who don't.
My phone is full of messages from clients that refused unnecessary interventions, inductions, cesareans, GBS tests, etc etc etc. Because they understood the consequences of these, often unnecessary, invasive tests/interventions.

And every single time I receive such a message, my heart jumps for joy!!!!

Taking full autonomy over your body, your baby and your pregnancy takes courage and above all, INFORMATION that your healthcare provider won't give you. Aka, meaning you won't just blindly trust them and won't comply with protocol (which isn't law).

You have rights when walking into a hospital, birthcenter and at home. No one is allowed to not allow you.

What unnecessary interventions did you decline? Or wished you had declined after learning more about it?

Il primo parto

Un cammino dentro te stessa. Pieno di paure e sfide. Ogni contrazione ti porta un pezzettino di più verso "di la"... Senti il tuo bimbo muoversi, girarsi e spingersi verso il mondo fuori. Attraversi momenti della tua vita in qui ti sei "sfidata"... con paure, preoccupazioni e dubbi. Ci vuole tempo, amore e pazienza per entrambe. Fidarti pienamente (magari anche per la prima volta nella tua vita) del tuo corpo. Farai paragoni con altre donne. Che non sono te. Non hanno camminato nelle tue scarpe di vita. Ogni travaglio è diversa. Ogni donna è diversa. Morirà la tua parte ragazza. E nascerà la tua parte donna e madre. Fa paura ? Si ! E ci sta.... attraverso il tuo cammino trovi le tue forze che ti aiuteranno durante questo viaggio potente e unico.

E tu? Come hai vissuto il tuo travaglio?

Non vedo l'ora di accogliervi !!

YOUR BODY is yours and yours only. No one else owns your body. Not the hospital, not your parents, not your kind doctor, not the pharmaceutical industry.

YOU OWN YOUR BODY, and thus you decide and have full responsibility over whatever you do to your body and what you allow others to do to your body.

So many times I hear
- the doc doesn't allow me to xyz
- the hospital where I wanna give birth doesn't allow xyz

During those times I really need to bite my tongue.....

Who are they to not allow YOU to xyz?
You are a client .... not a patient !

Imagen you walking into Louis Vutton and receiving the same type of treatment.... would you still buy the bag? Guess not. Or at least hope not ♡

So why do we allow this during visits in hospitals and clinics?

I've come to understand that this behaviour is fearbased, ancestral, and cultural but moreover accepted !

Placing our feminine health in the hands of those that only understand perhaps 25% of you. The rest is not considered.

How much longer are you willing to accept 25% when what you deserve is 100%.

Wanting a physiological birth is your birth right from the start. And body sovereignty should be the norm. I made a harsh difference between MEDWIVES and MIDWIVES.
I'll explain below

Midwives have this innate skill of being present without the need to DO something when everything goes well. No need for routine vaginal exams when labor is going well. She just KNOWS....

Medwives follow protocols even if they do not make any sense at that moment. They do not know (and haven't learned HOW to be with women.
They are trained to not trust the female body and are slammed with this type of language:

“women can’t deliver their placenta safely without help”
“What if she pulls her uterus out too”
“She could snap the cord”
“Women dont know how to do that”
“Don’t be a cowboy, stick to standards of care”
"We know best as professionals"

The ONLY ONE that knows you, is YOU.
You know best. Under all circumstances I've seen women expressing their needs. In the event medical staff wouldn't listen, I advocated for them.

Knowing the type of people you choose to have around you in this transformational phase, is hugely important!

And not to be underestimated.

Quote from a midwife:
I was shocked. It was the most patriarchal, disempowering, sick system that I ever found myself inside of…I almost quit. The absence of complication.”

I've had clients that didn't take my advice and ended up with unnecessary emergency cesareans in the wrong structure with the wrong medical staff.

And I can tell you, THAT HURTS MY HEART. I love my clients. And seeing how the medical world takes advantage of a vulnerable woman is sickening ! I call this flat out the hospitaltrap.

It's one of the reasons I organise my birthcourses the way I do, walking them through the hospital protocols so that they are able to check, based on their birth wishes, if this specific structure is aligned with them.

Next course is on the 4&5 of May and I have 2 spots left. For info visit my link in bio.
I'd love to prepare you for an empowering birth ❤️

Much love Margaretha
