You prepared for birth. Did you prepare for after?

Postpartum healing isn’t just physical.
It’s hormonal. Emotional. Mental.

Placenta preparation is one option some mothers choose to support recovery and replenishment after birth.

Education over pressure.
Support over shame.
Choice over fear.

Today is the last day of World Doula Week 🤍

I’m not the greatest at posting on social media but I wanted to take the time today and express my gratitude.

I don’t take lightly the honor of being invited into some of life’s most sacred, vulnerable, and powerful moments. To walk alongside my clients through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum is something I am endlessly grateful for.

Thank you to every family who has trusted me, leaned on me, and allowed me to support them in their journey. It’s a privilege to hold space, offer guidance, and witness the strength that exists within each of you.

This work is more than what I do—it’s part of who I am. And I am so thankful to serve this community in such a meaningful way.🤍

Postpartum isn’t just about the baby.

It’s about the mother healing in every possible way, physically, mentally, emotionally, while still showing up 24/7.

If someone you love just had a baby, here’s what actually helps:

Check on her, not just the baby.
Bring food she can eat with one hand.
Hold the baby so she can shower or nap.
Remind her she’s doing a good job (because she’s probably questioning everything).
Don’t expect replies, visits, or thank-yous right now.
Just show up quietly and consistently.

Postpartum is one of the most vulnerable seasons a person can walk through.
The people who support you then… you never forget. ❤️

The narrative we are seeing in the media is painting home birth in a dangerous light. The reality? Research shows that for most people home is often the safest place to birth with lower intervention rates (so less forcep, ventouse, episiotomies), lower risk of infection, haemorrhage, the list goes on!

We need to ask ourselves why home birth is always in the spotlight? Why It’s painted as dangerous or risky when the statistics show in most cases the opposite? Of course there are some heartbreaking situations where someone will have a devastating complication during their home birth but these are reported heavily whilst all the much more frequent tragedies that unfold in hospitals aren’t reported in the same way…

It is fear mongering in the most unhelpful way. We need empowering, evidence-based information so people can make individualised choices that are right for them. We do not need to try and put everyone in the same box.

Cord clamping shouldn’t happen until the cord is white and has completely stopped pulsing.
ACOG recommends waiting at least 30 to 60 seconds before cutting the cord, which is a good start. But if the cord is still pulsing and still has color, that means blood, oxygen, iron, stem cells, and immune cells are still being delivered to your baby.
That process doesn’t always finish in 60 seconds. Sometimes it takes several minutes. Sometimes it takes longer. Every baby is different, and the cord should be the guide, not the clock.
When we wait until the cord is white and limp, we know the baby has received everything that was meant for them. Their blood volume, oxygen levels, and iron stores are supported exactly as designed.
Clamping too soon cuts off that transfer, leaving part of the baby’s blood supply still inside the placenta instead of in their body where it belongs.
Your baby only gets one chance to receive their full blood volume after birth. Waiting until the cord is white makes sure they do.
