My first labour ended in intervention.
When I started preparing for my VBAC, I kept coming back to one moment…the transition from home to the birth centre.

At home, things were intense and rhythmic. I was in my body, in my space.

When we moved, my contractions slowed. At the time I wondered if it had been too soon. In hindsight, I think my nervous system just needed more time to catch up with the new environment.

I wonder how different the birth would have been if I trusted my intuition. I knew something had shifted, I just didn’t have the language for it yet.

Now I do. And that’s why I love educating women about pregnancy and the nervous system here and in my practice.

💬 Have you had a moment in birth where you wish you’d listened to yourself? I’d love to hear it.

Your body is changing fast, your nervous system is doing a lot, and everything starts to feel real as you get closer to meeting your baby.

If your due date is in April, May or June, here are a few things I’d focus on now:

1. Prioritise posture on the couch
Your pelvis and ribcage matter more than ever.
Keep your hips slightly higher than your knees and try lying on your side instead of sitting upright. It’s not for much longer, I promise.
Your body is making space, and these tweaks help more than you can imagine.

2. Create daily nervous system habits
Even five minutes can shift how you feel.
Slow breathing, stepping outside, grounding your feet or placing a hand on your belly can help you settle.
Your nervous system sets the tone for birth.

3. Lean into gentle movement
Walking, pelvic tilts, cat-cow, hip circles or time on all fours.
You don’t need intensity, just rhythm and mobility.

4. Prepare your environment
Dim lights, calming music, familiar scents and a space that feels safe.
Your birth hormones love comfort.

5. Look after your digestion and hydration
Small meals, good protein, healthy fats, nutrient-dense snacks, electrolytes and plenty of water.
Simple foundations go a long way.

6. Practice letting go of control
Birth asks you to soften, trust and tune in.
Start practising that now in the tiny moments.

7. Protect your energy
Rest more, rush less and say no more often.
Your body is doing enough already.

8. Anchor into connection
Talk to your baby, follow your intuition and notice what your body is saying. This is part of your preparation too.

Save this to come back to in the final stretch 🤍
And follow for more pregnancy support.

My first event as a founder taught me a lot. And it’s taken me a while to realise it.

Last month I said yes to everything…the event, the opportunities, the DMs. I was replying with full advice and booking people in on top of it.

Meanwhile, my self care dropped. My food changed. I was just trying to get through each day.

I wasn’t thriving. My body was dysregulated and I was calling it busy.

The nervous system doesn’t lie. My body was keeping score the whole time.

If this sounds familiar, save this. You’re not lazy or ungrateful. You’re overloaded.

Research shows your nervous system is literally building your baby’s.

Not after birth.
In the womb.

Which means you have more power than you realise.

When you feel safe, calm and supported, your baby’s developing brain receives that signal.

Their nervous system learns to adapt.
Their stress response develops with more resilience.
They arrive more settled.

And it starts with you.

Your rest matters.
Your support matters.
Your nervous system matters.

You’re not just growing a baby.
You’re shaping how they experience the world.

That is extraordinary. 🤍

This is why I’m so passionate about supporting women during pregnancy. Your wellbeing isn’t separate from your baby’s. It is your baby’s.

Pregnancy and postpartum ask a lot of the body.

In a first pregnancy especially, everything is adapting in real time. Your posture shifts, your load changes, your muscles work differently, and then postpartum brings a whole new set of demands again.

I’m always encouraging mums to get support early 🤍

So often, I meet women when they’re already really uncomfortable and have been pushing through for weeks or months assuming it’s just part of the season they’re in.

Yes, change is normal.
But that doesn’t mean support has to wait until things feel hard.

Earlier assessment can help pick up on the way your body is adapting and offer support along the way.
DM me to book an assessment. 🤰🏼
