Birth Education✨

🌸Time is dedicated to planning a pregnancy, deciding on a nursery theme and researching prams but very little time is invested into preparing for labour and birth.

🌸The Positive Birth Program encourages a calm, supportive and empowering experience. Expanding knowledge about birth encourages participation, advocacy, satisfaction, assertiveness when communicating choices and promotes confidence in decision-making.

⭐️Not knowing your options means you have no options to choose from!

As a midwife, I am passionate about providing families with the tools needed to be in control of their individual birthing story.

Baby Movements ✨

🌸There is no set number of normal movements

🌸Get to know your baby’s own unique pattern

🌸Movements can be defined as a kick, flutter, swish or roll

🌸First movements are often felt between 15 and 24 weeks of pregnancy regardless of placenta location

🌸Movements do not slow down prior to labour or birth

🌸Never compare yourself and your experience to someone else

🌸You know your baby best, always trust your instincts

🌸If you are concerned about a change or decrease in baby’s movements, contact your care provider immediately

🌟Baby movements matter🌟
