Can your body really heal itself?

It can, and it does it every single day. The same body that turned two cells into your baby’s heart and brain is the one that closes a cut on your finger and shrinks your uterus back down after birth.

As a chiropractor and a midwife, I’ve been at more than 300 births and spent over 11 years caring for pregnant and postpartum mamas. What I see most is that the body rarely needs someone to take over. It needs fewer things getting in its way. That is mostly true for both life and birth.

The biggest one is stress, and I don’t only mean feeling stressed out. A fall, hours hunched over a laptop, scented candles and a job that keeps you up at night all count. Your body holds onto that stress, and it builds up over time. Eventually it starts showing up as symptoms, like inflammation, pain, fatigue, and over the years it can turn into chronic illness.

And when your body needs more support, getting help is part of trusting it too.

How do I get my body ready for labor?

The nursery is painted and the bag has been by the door since 35 weeks. Your body needs some of that attention too, because your pelvis, your muscles, how you breathe and the way baby is lying all play a part in how labor goes.

Your prenatal visits are there to check on you and baby. They don’t have time to look at how your pelvis moves or why your hips ache every time you roll over in bed.

So these are the 7 things I check on every pregnant mama I see, after 300+ births as a midwife and a chiropractor. Most mamas don’t hear about number 7 until they’re in labor.

Comment STEPS and I’ll send you my guide to get ready for labor. You can start at home with my online program, or come see me in person in Hopkins 🤰🏽

How do I prep for birth?

Most of us spend pregnancy prepping the nursery, the car seat and the hospital bag. Your body needs prep too, mama, and it’s the part almost nobody teaches.

Your pelvis has three levels, and baby has to rotate through each one. When your hips, pelvic floor and core are tight or out of balance, there’s less room to open. The good news is your body can train for this.

I’ve been at 300+ births as a midwife, spent 11+ years as a prenatal chiropractor, and I’m a certified Body Ready Method® Pro. These 6 steps are what I teach my mamas at MotherBaby Wellness Co.

Early labor? Here’s exactly what to do 🤍

And make sure you’re following for more pregnancy and birth tips.

If you’re wondering what to do in early labor, take a deep breath, mama. Early labor is your body warming up, and it can take a while. Especially for first-time moms, this part can last hours, sometimes longer. That’s normal.

Your job right now is simple: rest, hydrate, empty your bladder, eat, and repeat. Ignore it as long as you can, and save your energy for when you really need it.

Not sure if you’re in active labor yet? If you have to ask, you’re probably still early. Active labor is intense, and you won’t have to wonder.

Put the contraction timer down, skip the intense walk, and let your body do its thing. Run a warm bath, put on a rom-com, and rest. Labor will find you.

Always call your provider if your water breaks, you notice bleeding, baby is moving less, or something just doesn’t feel right. When in doubt, give them a shout.

How do I prepare for labor and birth? 🤰

If you’re asking this, you’re already ahead. Most moms spend their pregnancy researching the nursery, the car seat and the birth plan. Very few actually practice for labor itself.

And that’s the piece that changes how birth feels.

Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, an epidural, an induction, a hospital birth or a home birth, labor asks a lot of you. A birth plan tells your team what you want. What you’ve practiced is what you’ll actually reach for when contractions are coming fast and you’re tired and overwhelmed.

After 300+ births as a midwife, I can usually tell which moms practiced. They breathe through the hard moments instead of fighting them. They know when to change positions. They ask questions and speak up for themselves. Their partners know how to help. And when plans change, they adjust without spiraling.

Preparing for birth isn’t about doing it a certain way. It’s about walking in feeling ready for whatever your birth turns into. 🤍

That’s exactly what I teach in my online childbirth course. It covers what to practice, how to practice it, and how to make it second nature by the time labor starts.

5-1-1. Save this one 👇🏻

And make sure you’re following for more pregnancy and birth advice 🤍

Contractions 5 minutes apart, lasting 1 minute each, for 1 hour. That’s a common guide for when to head in. Some providers use 4-1-1 for first-time moms, so ask yours which one they want you to follow.

Here’s something most people don’t hear: a lot of moms arrive too early. Research shows that people admitted in early labor tend to end up with more interventions. When you labor longer at home together, you spend less time on the hospital clock and arrive once labor has a strong pattern and is really rocking and rolling.

🚨 But call your provider right away, no matter how far apart contractions are, if:
    •    Your water breaks, especially if it’s green, brown, or smells off
    •    You have bleeding that’s more than light spotting
    •    Baby is moving less than usual or their pattern changes
    •    You have a severe headache, vision changes, or sudden swelling in your face or hands
    •    You have a fever
    •    You have constant, severe belly pain that doesn’t ease between contractions
    •    You’re having regular contractions before 37 weeks
    •    You feel a strong urge to push

If you ever see or feel the umbilical cord in the va**na, call 911.

Talk to your provider ahead of time about your special scenarios, like your water breaking first, being GBS positive, a fast previous birth, or a long drive. Your plan might look different, and that’s okay.

And when in doubt? Give them a shout. You will never be “too much” for calling.

What are the best daily habits for a healthy pregnancy? 🤰

Here’s what I tell the moms I see every week.

None of these are big or fancy. They’re small things that take a few minutes. After years as a midwife and prenatal chiropractor, I’ve noticed the moms who feel best in pregnancy, and often in labor too, aren’t doing anything extreme. They do the little things over and over.

Rolling to their side to get out of bed. A walk after dinner. Protein at breakfast… and then again all day 😅 A cup of NORA tea. Hypnobirthing tracks on repeat until they know them by heart.

Which one are you already doing? And which one are you starting today? Tell me below 👇
