"It’s reassuring to know that night nursing at this stage is age-appropriate, not the sign of faulty parenting or a sleep disorder."

This 2024 study describes what’s normal for night-waking in breastfeeding babies 5 to 12 months old. Not surprisingly, 97% woke and nursed at least once during the night. It’s reassuring to know that night nursing at this stage is age-appropriate, not the sign of faulty parenting or a sleep disorder.

I'm a little bit enamoured by the moon on birth nights. This one was particularly full and beautiful, but impossible to capture.

Beautiful new family, beautiful ancient sky - doula heart full ❤️

To all of my midwives - I wouldn't be who I am today, without you! Thank you for making birth a human experience, for listening to us and for always going the extra mile for the moms and babies who rely on you (all with a sense of humor). I'm celebrating you today 🪇👏🎉

Midwifery models of care are not just a “nice to have”, they are evidence-based, life-changing, and crucial to improving outcomes for families and children all around the world.

Midwives are associated with:
✨ Improved birth outcomes
👶🏽 Reduced risk of preterm birth
⁉️ Fewer unnecessary interventions
🏡 Improved health and wellbeing for families
💡 More personalised, informed decision-making
📈 Increased confidence, satisfaction, and empowerment
(WHO, 2026)

✨At their core, midwives do more than provide care.

They build relationships.
They advocate.
They improve safety.
They improve outcomes at both an individual and global level and when midwives are supported, communities are stronger.

Midwives care 🌍 Communities thrive

🗓️SAVE THE DATE 🗓️

This special Birth Circle will celebrate mothers. Mothers awaiting their babies, mothers who have lost babies, mothers with children, mothers who have raised their children, those who have stepped into the mothering role for others.

Please share with and invite your own mothers or any friends that for the description. We have lots of beautiful things planned and will share more details soon!
