Preparing for birth…
Contrary to popular belief there is so much you can do to prepare your body and mind for birth. And i truly believe the more you put in the more you get out.
✅Staying active during pregnancy will allow your baby to get into the right position for birth.
✅Using affirmations, meditation tracks and visualisations can all help with changing your mindset around birth and allowing you to let go of that fear and put your trust in your birthing body!
✅Filling your mind with positive birth stories will allow you to fill your subconscious with positive thoughts around birth and help let go of that fear and tension in labour
✅Taking part in birth education will allow you to go into labour feeling empowered and informed! This will allow you to make the best decisions for you and your baby. And often the more we know, the less we have to fear!
Contact me if you wish to have a free consultation regarding what I can offer you in birth education.
Hypnobirthing is for ALL types of birth!
Our aim is to allow you to have all the information so that birth isn’t just something that happens to you! Your body and your baby know exactly how to labour! ❤️ Your body was built for this.

Practicing affirmations in pregnancy will help keep you calm and positive about your upcoming labour.
They will also help you put that trust in your baby and your body.
Telling your birth partner which ones resonate with you so they can utilise them in labour is an amazing tool! They can ground you and calm you! Allow yourself to relax and surrender to your birthing body!
You can do this! Your body was built for this! 👏🏼❤️

All through pregnancy we are told… this is your “due date”
And our whole pregnancy we are working up to this date!

We tell our family and friends this due date and as it gets closer we get constant questions…”is the baby here yet?!”
This can cause anxiety, stress and impatience.

Fruit all ripens at different times, and babies grow and develop at different rates in the womb. So why do we expect all babies to be born at the same time and anything over that date is considered “late”?

Around 4% of babies are born on their due date !
11% born before
85% born after
So don’t fixate on the due date…
it’s better to think of a due date window.
Between 37-42 weeks!
And the biggest piece of advice i would give is to not tell people your “due date”
Say for example End of March.

And remember “Your baby knows how and when to be born.”
Put that trust into your body and baby ❤️

I am offering birth education to help you make decisions from an informed and educated place.
It is never too early in pregnancy to start preparing your mind and body for birth.
You CAN go into your upcoming birth excited instead of fearful!

You are allowed.

Just a reminder, it is your body, your baby, your birth. Even when it doesn’t feel like it’s your choice…it is.

Sometimes in a medical setting, language can be used that makes you feel like you don’t have a choice. You do not lose your body autonomy when you are pregnant or giving birth.

You may hear things like
“After 41 weeks you HAVE to be induced.”
“You are not ALLOWED to have a home birth”
“You MUST give birth on your back.”

Everytime something like this is said, step back, take a deep breath and remember you have choices to make. You do not HAVE to do anything.

The main advice I would give is to do your research. Read books, listen to podcasts and of course take a hypnobirthing course! 😜 Be as informed as you possibly can.
The medical professionals do not always know what is best. So it’s important to feel empowered and informed when making decisions during your pregnancy and labour!

Contact me if you are wanting help to prepare you for your upcoming birth. ❤️

Hello 👋
Just a little introduction.
I am Shelley. I am the founder of The Empowered Birth co.
I live on the French Riviera with my husband, little girl and two crazy hunting dogs!
I am currently in my second pregnancy, expecting a little boy to join our family in March. 💙
I fell in love with all things birth and pregnancy in my first pregnancy in 2021. I am recently qualified as a hypnobirthing teacher and I wanted to start The Empowered Birth co because I couldn’t find any extra birth education or support in the area during my pregnancy!
I love dog walks in our local forest, reformer pilates and yummy wine and food! 🍷 ❤️

This is just some of the things you will learn in our hypnobirthing course. Hypnobirthing is all science based and there is something so reassuring and calming about understanding the physiology behind your labour and pregnancy!
You will finish this course feeling calm, excited, informed and empowered about your upcoming birth.
Take control of your birth. Birth shouldn’t be something that just happens to you. Take back your power by investing time to educate and empower yourself!
