The newborn stage can feel overwhelming.

You’re told not to hold your baby too much, not to feed them to sleep, not to let them nap on you, not to respond too quickly, and not to create “bad habits”.

As a midwife and a mum of two, these are 10 things I’m not worried about during the newborn stage…

Braxton Hicks or labour contractions? Let’s talk about the differences.

Remember, every labour is different, so if you’re ever unsure, trust your instincts and contact your maternity team.

However you fed (or feed) your babies, you did an incredible job 🤎

This week is World Breastfeeding Week, and while the stats are worth celebrating (swipe to see just how far things have come), we know the number was never the point. It was every 3am feed, every question you were brave enough to ask, every version of “enough” you had to find for yourself and your baby.

Save this and send to a mother who needs reminding. And if you’re navigating feeding right now and want to talk it through with someone who’s been there clinically and personally, that’s exactly what we’re here for.

A Maia Collective gift voucher gives parents-to-be freedom to choose what they need most, when they need it. Whether that’s:

- A private midwife consultation to talk through their birth plan
- A WhatsApp support package for those “is this normal?” moments
- A place on one of our workshops or retreats
- Or simply the workbook that helps them feel prepared, not panicked

No guessing sizes. No returns. Just genuine, clinically-grounded support, from a midwife who’s been doing this for over a decade.

Gift vouchers are available to purchase via our website, link in the bio 🤎

If your baby only wants to sleep on you, cries the moment you transfer them, or seems happiest in your arms, I want you to hear this:

This is normal.

I’m sharing this not only as an NMC-registered midwife, but as a mum who had a baby that simply didn’t want to be put down.

It can feel exhausting, overwhelming and sometimes even isolating. But your baby isn’t manipulating you or forming “bad habits”, they’re doing exactly what they’re biologically wired to do.

Save this for the days you need the reminder, and share it with another parent who might need to hear it too.

Sometimes, all it takes is a simple message to turn anxiety into reassurance 🤎

If the fear of labour has been sitting in the back of your mind… this one’s for you.

You don’t need to be fearless. You just need to feel a bit more informed than you did yesterday. That’s the goal. 🤎

Save this for later, and follow for more evidence-based birth prep.

Because sometimes you need a bit of humour to get you through the tough days 🤎
