One of the biggest lessons motherhood has taught me is that perfection was never the goal.

As a first-time mum, I put so much pressure on myself to always be patient, always have everything in order, always know or find the answer, and always get it right (control freak much? 🤪). Now, as a mum of three, I’ve learned that emotional regulation isn’t about never feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or exhausted. It’s about surrendering to the season, recognising those harder feelings, responding rather than reacting when I can, and repairing when I don’t.

The challenges of motherhood haven’t changed all that much. But my perspective has. And that has made all the difference.

Since I’m immersed in my baby bubble at the moment, I thought I would share one of the ways I have managed to minimise sleep deprivation! No this won’t stop many night wakes or necessarily make you sleep better or for longer, but it is just one way to approach night wakes to minimise the sleep damage 😅
This experience third time round with my personal energy levels has been the best of all. I think knowing how quick this season passes, being in the groove a bit more, not having much choice or time in the mornings to get caught up on the lack of sleep from the night before, as well as having a consistent night and morning routine, have contributed to an overall pretty positive experience!

*side note- this is just my personal experience and I acknowledge that this won’t necessarily work for everyone or might not be your experience. Sleep deprivation is something else and I’m sending love if you’re currently going through that 😮‍💨❤️

My birth story… a planned c section that didn’t necessarily go to plan. A rough recovery. A lot of pain meds. But above everything, a beautiful baby girl and a whole lot of love and gratitude for her delivery 🤍

I’m currently 10 days into the postpartum period for the third time, and every time I move through this season I’m reminded just how big of an adjustment it is.
Your body is recovering.
Your hormones are shifting.
Your sleep is disrupted.
And your brain is learning an entirely new rhythm of life again.

Even though this isn’t my first time navigating postpartum, I still find myself leaning on the same tools and reminders that I share with clients. Because the truth is, most of the advice new mums receive focuses on caring for the baby, while very little attention is given to caring for the mother’s mind.

As a hypnotherapist and psychology graduate, these are four things I often remind women in the postpartum period. Not because motherhood needs to be done perfectly or in one way, but because small shifts in how we regulate our nervous system, speak to ourselves and structure our day can make a huge difference to how supported and grounded we feel. And as a mum myself, I know how powerful those reminders can be.

If you’re in the postpartum season right now, be gentle with yourself. Your nervous system is learning too 🤍

Things have been a bit quiet on here since last week as we welcomed our gorgeous girl.

Emilia June Cromie was born on 05.03.2026 🤍

We will continue to soak up our newborn bubble and will share more soon!

Day 29 of self care and well being- a story of being humbled by the ultimate public meltdown and how I handled it 😅

Today my toddler completely lost it… in public… and for a moment I felt that familiar heat rise in my chest. The urge to fix it. Stop it. Make it look “better.” But instead, I removed myself for a minute. Breathed. Regulated. Reminded myself how little he actually is.

He’s wasn’t giving me a hard time, he was having a hard time. It was a tough hour. Not a tough life. Not a bad day. Just a hard moment.

Motherhood has taught me that surrender isn’t giving up, it’s accepting what’s in front of you without fighting it. It’s choosing connection over control. It’s letting the storm pass instead of trying to silence it.

We moved through it. We reset (even though this ended up taking nearly 2 hours). We carried on. And that felt like a quiet little win 🤍

Day 28 of selfcare and wellbeing- How I create a self hypnosis recording and how I practice what I preach 🤍

When I create a self-hypnosis track, especially for something as significant as birth, it’s structured very intentionally.

Although this may look like a lot of work and writing, it is based off different templates I have personally established, to use as a guide, and then customised further and structured to meet personal needs.

There’s a clear induction to regulate the nervous system and induce a state of hypnosis. �There’s body-based language to reinforce trust and physiological stability.�There’s surgical reframing to reduce subconscious threat responses.�There’s baby co-regulation.�There’s future pacing (so the brain has already practised the day).�There’s identity work,because how you see yourself going into birth matters.�And there’s anchoring so calm becomes accessible on cue.

None of this is random. These are techniques I’ve trained in and use with clients every week, customised to the individual nervous system in front of me.

For me, this track isn’t about controlling birth.�It’s about preparing my mind and body to meet it calmly, safely and powerfully.

I have been listening to it every night the past few days and will continue to leading up to her arrival 🤍
