Your breath is your anchor. 🌬️

In labor, breath isn't just something you do—it's something you can use.
✨ It calms your nervous system
✨ It keeps oxygen flowing to you and your baby
✨ It brings rhythm, focus, and power to each contraction

Try this:
🤲 Find a comfortable seat
🤍 One hand on your heart, one on your belly
🌊 Inhale deeply through your nose
🌿 Exhale slowly through your mouth (make sure their in no tension in jaw or upper back)

Repeat 5–10 times… then speak your affirmation

Your breath is your power.
You don’t need to control labor—you can ride the wave. And we’ll be right there with you.

Birth hormones are all about love and safety. 💛
When a mama feels calm, supported, and undisturbed, her body begins to release two powerful hormones:

✨ Oxytocin — the “love hormone”
It helps labor progress, encourages contractions, and strengthens the bond between you and your baby.

✨ Endorphins — your body’s natural pain relief
They rise as labor intensifies, helping you manage discomfort and move through each wave with greater ease.

But here’s the key:
These hormones flow best in safe, peaceful environments—dim lights, soft voices, and the presence of people you trust.

At SCMC, we protect that space—so your body can do what it was designed to do, with love leading the way. 🌿

You were never meant to birth in fear.
You were meant to birth in strength—with support, with softness, and with full permission to trust your body.

Repeat this to yourself as labor begins:
“I am safe. I am steady. I am powerful.”

You were made for this. 💛

Movement is medicine in labor! ✨
Your body was made to move—and when you do, you’re helping your baby find their way earthside.

💪 Sway.
🚶‍♀️ Walk.
🧎‍♀️ Lean.
🩵 Rest and rise again.

Every position shift, every breath-led motion helps labor progress and keeps you connected to your body’s rhythm.
Let movement be your guide. We’ll be right beside you.

⭐Highly Recommend for more position ideas

When birth is hidden away behind hospital curtains…
When our kids are feel a negative energy behind it we introduce unnecessary fear

…We send a quiet message that birth is medical, not natural.
That it’s something to be managed—not trusted.

But birth is a physiological process—a sacred, transformative moment in a woman’s life. And when we invite our children to witness, learn, and ask questions, we’re doing more than normalizing it—we’re reclaiming it.

✨ We’re showing them that birth can be calm.
✨ That it’s not something to be afraid of, but something to be in awe of.
✨ That women’s bodies are wise, capable, and made for this.

Including our kids in the birth experience (in age-appropriate ways) doesn’t just prepare them for the arrival of a sibling—it teaches them that birth is not a crisis. It’s a beginning. A rite of passage. A beautiful, natural part of life.

Before you speak your affirmation it's important to ground yourself.

✨ Find stillness.
✨ Place one hand on your heart, the other on your belly.
✨ Breathe deeply, 5–10 rounds.

Let the breath clear your mind and open your body.
