did you know the way you breathe can change how you push?

breath directs energy, oxygen, and release.
it supports your pelvic floor and helps contractions work with you, not against you.

pushing doesn’t have to be forced.
it can be spontaneous, breath-led, strong or slow and intuitive.

you have choices.
your body already knows the rhythm.

“We can’t thank Maite enough for all her support
during my wife Larissa’s pregnancy!

From day one, she was right there by Larissa’s side, offering emotional and physical support that made a world of difference.

When it came to active labor, Maite’s exercises and advice were absolutely essential. They really helpeo
Larissa work through everything with confidence.
Maite’s warm and caring approach made the whole experience so much better for us.

If you’re looking for a doula who truly cares and spares no effort to help you, we highly recommend Maite!

Thank you Maite!”

Babies are born knowing.
From the moment they’re placed skin-to-skin, their bodies can locate the ni**le guided by scent, instinct, and ancient wisdom.
This is the breast crawl.
Trust the baby. Trust the body.

O corpo lembra. O bebê sabe.

labouring down ✦ a pause with purpose

this post is about that moment after full dilation
when the body may ask for time before pushing.

labouring down is the choice to pause, letting contractions and gravity bring baby lower before active pushing begins.

when mama and baby are well, this pause can mean less exhaustion and a calmer pushing phase.

birth doesn’t need rushing.
it needs listening.

TENS MACHINE

tens machines use gentle electrical pulses to your nerves to reduce pain naturally and help your body release endorphins.

✦ can be used during early labour or for back labour
✦ helps you stay mobile, sway, and find comfortable positions
✦ supports you in staying in control without medication

using a tens machine can make contractions more manageable and give you confidence to move with your body throughout labour.

✦ dm me if you want to hire a tens machine for your birth ✦

save this for birth prep or share with someone preparing for labour ✦

The power of waiting: labouring down

everyone talks about pushing… almost no one talks about the power of waiting.

labouring down isn’t giving up control it’s trusting your body, letting contractions and gravity do what they’ve been preparing to do for months.

taking this pause after full dilation can mean:
💛 less exhaustion
💛 fewer interventions
💛 a calmer, more effective pushing phase

if you’re planning a hospital or birth center birth, this is worth discussing before labour begins. ask for time. listen to your body. trust the process.

sometimes the most powerful thing you can do in birth is… wait.

💌 save this for later & share with someone who needs to hear it!
