How are you taking care of yourself now?

How are you taking care of yourself now?

12/03/2026

Pregnant during uncertain times? 🤍

It’s normal for worries to feel stronger when the world around us feels unpredictable. Pregnancy naturally makes us more protective and emotionally aware.

But protecting your mental health during this time matters just as much as caring for your physical health.

A few gentle reminders:

• Limit constant exposure to distressing news
• Give your body moments to rest and breathe
• Talk openly with someone you trust

You don’t need to feel calm all the time. Feeling supported, informed, and cared for is what truly helps your body and mind find balance again.

Be gentle with yourself. Your body is doing something extraordinary. 🤍— PositiveBirthh

Protecting Your Mental Health While Pregnant in Uncertain Times

Pregnancy is a time of physical and emotional change. Even in the most stable circumstances, it can bring new worries, questions, and sensitivities. When the world around us feels uncertain, those emotions can become stronger.

Many pregnant people notice that they feel more alert to potential risks. This is a natural protective instinct. Your mind and body are preparing to care for a baby, and part of that preparation involves being aware of your surroundings. However, constant exposure to worrying news or stressful conversations can make the nervous system feel overwhelmed.

It is important to remember that feeling worried or emotional at times does not mean you are harming your baby. Human bodies are designed to handle everyday stress. What matters more is having ways to return to a sense of calm and safety after those moments arise.

One helpful step is limiting the amount of distressing information you consume each day. Staying informed is important, but constant exposure to upsetting news can keep the body in a prolonged state of tension. Choosing specific times to check reliable updates and avoiding news before sleep can help protect your mental space.

Another powerful way to support your wellbeing is through simple calming practices. Slow breathing, gentle movement, and short walks outside can help regulate the nervous system. Even a few minutes of quiet breathing can signal to your body that you are safe in the present moment.

Talking about your feelings can also make a significant difference. Many pregnant people try to stay strong for those around them, but holding anxiety silently often makes it feel heavier. Sharing your concerns with a partner, friend, or care provider can bring reassurance and perspective.

Small acts of preparation can also create a sense of stability. Knowing how to contact your care provider, organising your maternity documents, or preparing a hospital bag early can help replace uncertainty with simple plans.

Finally, give yourself permission to rest. Pregnancy requires energy, and emotional rest is just as important as physical rest. Stepping away from stressful conversations, spending time in calm environments, and focusing on activities that bring comfort can help restore balance.

You do not need to be perfectly calm throughout pregnancy. What matters most is creating moments of safety, connection, and support within your daily life. Even in uncertain times, your body continues to nurture and protect your baby.

I believe emotional wellbeing is an important part of pregnancy care. I provide gentle education and supportive guidance so you can feel informed, calm, and confident as you prepare for birth.

If you ever need reassurance or a safe space to ask questions, support is always here. 🤍

Strength Isn’t the Same as Safety (Part 1)

We praise strength in pregnancy and birth constantly.
“You’re strong.”
“You’ve got this.”
“You were made for this.”

And sometimes, those words land beautifully. But sometimes… they don’t feel empowering.
Sometimes they feel like pressure.

Because strength is not the same thing as safety.

Strength is your ability to keep going.
Safety is your ability to soften.

Strength is pushing through.
Safety is being held while you go through.

And birth should never require you to be strong just to survive it emotionally.

Why this matters?
Many birthing people don’t feel traumatised because birth was hard.
They feel traumatised because they felt unsafe while it was hard.

And safety isn’t just about medical outcomes. Safety is also:

- being spoken to kindly
- being listened to
- being asked for consent
- being given time
- being respected when you say no
- being reassured without being dismissed

You can be the strongest person in the world… and still feel unsafe if you’re not emotionally protected.

A gentle truth
Some people leave birth saying:
“I didn’t feel supported.”
“I felt rushed.”
“I didn’t understand what was happening.”
“I didn’t feel like I had a voice.”

And then others leave saying:
“It was intense… but I felt safe.”
“I felt like they explained everything.”
“I felt like my body was trusted.”
“I felt held.”

That difference is not strength.
That difference is support.

A question to reflect on!

What would make you feel safer in birth — not stronger?

Because your goal doesn’t have to be “handle everything.” Your goal can be:
feel safe while you go through it.

🤍 How PositiveBirthh Can Support
At PositiveBirthh, I help you understand birth practices and choices in a way that calms, not overwhelms. I believe you deserve support that protects your voice, your emotional safety, and your confidence — not pressure to “be strong.”

Feeling safe in birth isn’t about having a “perfect vibe.”

It’s about how you are treated.
How supported you feel.
And whether your voice matters in the room.

You deserve kindness, information, and steady support.

Instead of asking, “How do I eliminate pain?”

or “Should I endure it?”

A more supportive question is:

“What helps me feel safe, supported, and informed during intensity?”

This reframing allows space for flexibility, compassion, and choice — before and during birth.

GENTLE TRUTHS ABOUT BIRTH
Is Pain in Birth Something to Eliminate or Something to Understand?

Pain in birth is one of the most misunderstood topics in maternity care.
For some, it’s feared. For others, it’s dismissed. For many, it’s something they were never prepared to talk about honestly.

This conversation is not about glorifying pain and it is not about avoiding it at all costs.

It’s about understanding what pain is, what it isn’t, and how support changes everything.

🖌️Pain Is Not the Same as Suffering

Pain is a physical sensation.
Suffering happens when pain is combined with fear, isolation, or a lack of support.

Two people can experience similar sensations and walk away feeling completely different.

What made the difference?
- feeling safe
- being informed
- having choice
- being supported

🖌️ Birth Pain Has Meaning, But No Moral Value

Birth sensations are often rhythmic, purposeful, and linked to progress. That can doesn’t make them noble and it doesn’t mean anyone needs to endure them.

Pain during labor is information, not a test.
Using pain relief does not mean failure.
Coping without medication does not mean superiority.

🖌️ What Changes the Experience of Pain

Research consistently shows that pain perception changes when:

- the nervous system feels safe
- the birthing person feels in control
- movement is supported
- reassurance is continuous

This is why emotional support matters as much as physical care.

🖌️A Gentler Reframe

The real question may not be: “How do we eliminate pain?” But rather: “How do we reduce fear, increase support, and protect choice?”

Because when those are present, pain often becomes more manageable regardless of the tools used.

Whatever choices you make around pain relief you deserve respect, information, and support.

There is no right way to birth. Only your way.

🤔 Reflection

Q) What stories about pain in birth were you told growing up?
For me I was never told or I never asked, but only what I saw in movies. So in my sub-conscious mind birth meant pain!!

Q) What would make you feel safest during intense moments?
For me someone to hold me and then I know for sure that I’m not alone 🥹
