What if you could make labor feel a little more manageable WITHOUT reaching for medication?
Here are some of our favorite comfort measures we reach for again and again during labor:

•Labor comb— gives your hands and brain something to focus on while providing strong sensory input.

•Essential oils— certain scents can be soothing and some may help with nausea. We always use them intentionally and safely during pregnancy and labor.

•Fan + cool rags— especially helpful when mama is hot, overwhelmed, or nauseous. Sometimes a little cool air is EVERYTHING.

•Water therapy— shower or tub, warm water can help mama relax, soften tension, and make contractions feel more manageable.

•Counter pressure — firm pressure through the hips, sacrum, or lower back can be incredibly comforting, especially during intense contractions.

And the biggest comfort measure of all? Feeling safe, supported, and cared for.🤍 You don’t have to know exactly what you’ll want ahead of time. The beauty of labor support is having a whole toolbox to pull from as your needs change. Save this for your birth prep + send it to your birth partner. They’ll want this list too!

July was a little bit of a whirlwind around here!! Between babies arriving earlier than expected, babies keeping us waiting a little longer, and everything in between, this month kept us on our toes!
So many different families, birth stories, personalities, and very different sized babies — each one reminding us just how unique every birth truly is. 🥹
We may be a little late sharing this one… but honestly, 13 babies in one month will do that to you. 😂🤎
July, you were busy, beautiful, and one for the books. ✨

✨M I A J A M E S✨A beautiful, peaceful, and speedy HBAC for this sweet mama! 🤍 This family transferred into our care during their third trimester, but it didn’t take long at all for them to feel like family. We quickly built such a special connection, and we were honored to walk alongside them as they prepared to welcome their long-awaited baby girl. Labor began earlier in the day, and just after dark, everything unfolded beautifully. Once she was nearly 10cm, she climbed into the tub with her husband right by her side. She followed her body’s instincts, pushing her baby out peacefully into the water—and then, in the most incredible moment, caught her own baby and brought her straight into her arms. 🥹 And somehow, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Her mama, who lived hours away in the mountains, started driving as soon as she heard labor had begun. She arrived just in time to witness her granddaughter emerge peacefully into the water. What a moment to be there for. 🤍 A successful HBAC, a peaceful waterbirth, a mama catching her own baby, and a grandmother making it just in time to witness it all. What a beautiful way to welcome sweet MJ earthside. ✨

Yes we laugh at births too 🥰 Because birth isn’t always intense, serious, or quiet. Sometimes it’s laughter between contractions, jokes in the middle of pushing, and a room full of people who feel completely at ease. Sometimes the most beautiful thing a birth team can do is step back, watch mama soak in her baby, and laugh right alongside her. 🤍
There is so much joy in birth—and we never want to miss it.

✨W A L K E R✨ this second-time mom rolled through the waves of labor effortlessly, and as our team set up around her bed, we knew baby would be there soon. Dad got to catch his second son and place him right into his strong mama’s arms, where they locked eyes for the very first time. After soaking in those first sweet moments together, big brother came in to meet his baby brother not long after he was born. During the slow, sweet postpartum hours, Dad even gave Walker his very first chiropractic adjustment as part of his newborn exam. And weighing in at 9lbs 9 oz, Walker was nearly three pounds bigger than his big brother!
A beautiful, peaceful, joy-filled welcome for this sweet boy—and such a special way to grow their family from three to four. ✨

✨A L M A✨ ✨A L M A✨ This precipitous birth took us all by surprise! This was this family’s second birth with us at home, and the contrast from their first birth completely blew everyone away. Mama woke up after just a few short hours of sleep to contractions already 3 minutes apart. She could hardly believe it and quickly slipped deep into labor land. She called her team, filled everyone in, and everyone rushed over. Midwife Malu arrived first and immediately started filling the tub, knowing baby was going to be here soon. The rest of the team arrived shortly after, and just as everyone walked in, mama’s water spontaneously broke. We all knew it was time. With everyone’s help, we quickly boiled water, slowly walked mama across the kitchen, and reminded her just how incredible she was. The moment she settled into the warm water, it was GAME ON. Baby started crowning so quickly that we were all in awe of her! With mama and dad working together, they gently guided baby up and into her mother’s arms. In complete shock, mama looked up at us with laughter and joy. Then, together, they looked down to discover they had just welcomed their second daughter earthside. 🤍 As soon as baby let out her first cry, big sister came rushing in to see what all the fuss was about. And just like that, their family of four was complete. The postpartum hours were filled with laughter, pizza, freshly brewed tea, and so many newborn and toddler snuggles. The kind of slow, sweet moments that make everything feel real.

We are so incredibly proud of this family and so honored to have witnessed another one of their daughters make her way into the world. What a birth. What a transformation. What a beautiful way to welcome Alma earthside. ✨

✨ E L L A ✨
This special family holds such a special place in our hearts, and this birth was meaningful for so many reasons. This was their second birth with us—their first ending in an unexpected transfer that no one wanted. This birth was long awaited, deeply prayed for, and felt like the redemption they had been hoping for.
Their redemptive homebirth began with some prodromal labor that left everyone wondering when baby girl would finally choose her birthday. So when labor picked up, it was hard to know at first if this was truly it. Eventually, they decided it was time to call her doula (who had been with her for all four babies and came out of retirement just for her) and her midwives.
We knew this would likely be a quick birth, so the team headed over. But before our entire team could even arrive, this mama quite literally breathed her baby out.
In one swift wave, mama said, “Her head is out,” and within seconds, a whole baby was floating up into her hands. Dad threw his head back with the proudest laughter, and the room filled with tears as we watched this incredible mama soak in the redemptive birth she had worked and waited so hard for.
And what a testimony to Hypnobabies this birth was. Both mama and her doula are Hypnobabies instructors, and watching her put the tools she teaches into practice so beautifully was incredible. She trusted her body, stayed grounded in her breath, and truly breathed her baby into her hands.
Within minutes, the whole team arrived, and we laughed in awe as we watched this family of six get to know one another. We moved mama to the bed, tucked her in with her favorite people, and settled into a slow, peaceful morning of postpartum together.
Some births are more than just a birth. They are healing. They are redemption. They are answered prayers. 🤍
Welcome earthside, sweet Ella!

Tiny toes curled around your finger tip…It’s one of those details that’s almost impossible to walk past without stopping. But it’s more than just sweet.
•
Newborns are born with primitive reflexes—automatic movements that help them adapt to life outside the womb. That tiny toe grasp is called the plantar grasp reflex. Long ago, this reflex was used to help babies grasp onto their mothers. This reflex shows us that the brain and spinal cord are healthy and growing just as they should.
