✨ 3 things your midwife wishes every pregnant woman knew…

Birth can feel like a LOT to take in, especially when you’re trying to work out what you should and shouldn’t be doing.

But these three things are worth remembering:

🤍 You can ask questions.
If something is suggested, you can ask why, what your options are and what might happen if you wait.

🤍 You can change your mind.
Your preferences can change as your labour unfolds. Making a decision doesn’t mean you’re locked into it for the rest of your birth.

🤍 You have choices.
Knowing you have options and don’t have to agree to the first thing offered.

Being informed isn’t about questioning everything or having a “perfect” birth.

It’s about feeling involved, knowing your options and feeling confident to speak up when you need to. 🌿

Save this for your pregnancy preparation — and share it with your birth partner too. 💛

Pregnancy Relaxation is a chance to slow down, take a breath and spend some peaceful time connecting with your baby.

But it’s also about preparing for birth. 🤍

During each session, we explore simple hypnobirthing techniques, including breathing, relaxation, visualisation and positive mindset tools — all things you can practise during pregnancy and take with you into labour.

✨ Come as you are
✨ No experience needed
✨ A calm, supportive space
✨ Leave with practical tools for birth

Because preparing for birth isn’t just about knowing what might happen…

It’s also about learning how to stay calm, relaxed and grounded through it.

I created The Pregnancy Pause because I remember how easy it is for pregnancy to become all about appointments, lists, plans and getting everything ready for baby…

And sometimes, you just need to pause. 🤍

A little time to slow down, breathe, connect with your baby and take care of you too.

The Pregnancy Pause is a calm, relaxed space where you can switch off from the outside world and simply be.

You’ll also be introduced to some of the hypnobirthing techniques I teach — including breathing, relaxation and visualisation — so you can start building your own little toolbox for pregnancy, labour and birth. 🌿

Because preparing for birth isn’t just about knowing what might happen…

It’s also about feeling calm, informed and supported along the way.

And if there’s one thing I wish every pregnant woman had more of, it’s a little more time to pause. 🤍

The Pregnancy Pause — created with you in mind.

Pregnancy is a lot — physically, mentally and emotionally. 🤍

Sometimes, you don’t need another thing to do… you just need a little time to pause.

My Pregnancy Relaxation sessions are a chance to slow down, practise breathing and relaxation techniques, and introduce gentle hypnobirthing tools you can continue using throughout pregnancy and as part of your birth preparation. 🌿

No pressure to “do pregnancy perfectly”.
No expectations.
Just a calm space to breathe, switch off and spend some time focusing on you and your baby.

You deserve that little pocket of calm. 🤍

One of the things I love teaching in my pregnancy relaxation sessions is how much freedom you can have with movement and positioning during labour.

These are just a few positions you might want to practise before baby arrives:

🤰 Sitting on the birth ball — keeping you upright while allowing gentle movement and hip circles.

🤰 Leaning forwards over the ball — a great option for resting while remaining upright.

🤰 Kneeling and leaning forwards — another position to try if you want to take some pressure away from your back or simply find what feels good.

And the important bit?

You don’t need to choose one position and stay there.

You can sway, rock, kneel, stand, lean, sit, change sides… whatever feels right for you in that moment.

There is no gold medal for staying perfectly still during labour. 😂

Your body can be your guide.

This week in my pregnancy relaxation session, we’ll be exploring labour positions alongside relaxation and hypnobirthing techniques — so you can start building a little toolkit of things to try when the big day arrives. 🤍 Link to book in bio ⬆️⬆️⬆️

Save this for later and send it to your birth partner too!

Why I love working with first time parents…🤍

Today I spent time with a lovely first-time couple, helping them feel more prepared, informed and relaxed as they get ready to meet their baby.

We talked about what to expect during labour, how the body works, and practical hypnobirthing techniques they can use throughout pregnancy and birth — including breathing, relaxation, visualisation and staying calm when things feel intense.

I love that private sessions can be completely tailored to the couple in front of me. We can slow things down, chat through any questions or worries, and focus on what they need to feel more comfortable and confident going into birth.

Because preparing for birth isn’t about knowing exactly how it will unfold…

It’s about having the knowledge, tools and support to navigate it when the time comes. 🌿

If you’re expecting your first baby and would love some calm, practical birth preparation, my private hypnobirthing courses are available in Huddersfield & surrounding areas, or online.

There are so many things I wish every pregnant person was taught before they give birth. 🤍

Not because you need to know everything.

Not because you need to have a perfectly detailed birth plan.

But because understanding what is happening, knowing your options and having some practical tools can make birth feel so much less overwhelming.

And your birth partner deserves to feel prepared too — because they can be such an important part of your support team. 🌿

Birth doesn’t have to be something you simply hope you can get through.

You can learn about it.
You can prepare for it.
You can ask questions.
You can practise.

And you can feel supported along the way. 🤍

Get in touch today & let me help you feel informed & prepared for a positive birth experience ✨
