Bright lights can make you feel more alert or tense, the opposite of want you want in labour.

Dim lighting can help you to relax. So no big lights, try lamps and string lights instead.

Feeling calm helps labour hormones work!

Fun fact: when you place a cold flannel on your forehead to cool down, the flannel itself isn’t “cooling” you, it’s helping draw heat away from the body. Heat naturally moves toward the colder area, which is why the flannel warms up!

Anyway, they are such a helpful tool during labour especially for swelling & inflammation.

Warm heat packs can relax tight muscles especially when experiencing back labour.

Affirmations are positive phrases that you repeat aloud or read to yourself. It helps you to maintain focus.

During labour women use phrases like:
• “My body knows what to do.”
• “Each contraction brings my baby closer.”

These can help you stay calm and not become overwhelmed.

Writing your own affirmation cards to put up in your labour space is a great late-in-pregnancy activity 🧡

Music can help create a calm environment, and creating a pleasant environment to labour in should be a top priority.

The right music can help you to relax and focus. Creating a labour playlist is a great pre baby mat leave activity!

Let me know what songs are on your playlist!

Making sounds during contractions is a very natural response to intense sensations and can help release tension in the body & stay focused.

When people feel pain, they often hold their breath.

Slow breathing during labour can help your body relax.

It can also help you stay focused during contractions.

This is why hypnobirthing is such a good tool for combatting contractions.

Supportive touch can help people feel calmer during labour.

This might include:
• holding hands
• gentle massage
• back pressure

Feeling supported can make contractions easier to cope with.
