✨ Postpartum Food Prep ✨

I honestly can not explain how much of a difference it has made to have food in the freezer, ready to go.

I highly recommend squeezing in a food prep day or asking your friends/family/community to get involved with a meal train 💕

This chicken and sweetcorn soup has been absolutely *chef's kiss*.

I am so grateful to my mum and sister for facilitating this for my family 🥹

✨ One week ✨

It has definitely been a week of two halves.

One minute I'm filled with confidence, peace and "I've got this".

And in the next minute I'll crumble.

In the throes of my second postpartum it is clear that I suffer from debilitating postpartum anxiety.

However, I was prepared this time, and although the mix of hormones/sleep deprivation/resurfacing trauma is a particularly hard one to weather, this time I have the support and practical steps in place.

Sending love to all going through it, we are certainly not alone 💕

I am so grateful to be able to be more present in this experience this time around, and this also means that I have been able to experience all the magic ✨💐. I have been able soak up all the lovely moments, everything that I didn't manage in my previous experience that was purely in survival mode.

Deep breaths, one day at a time 🥰

✨ Still Waiting ✨

This photo was taken on my Due date, full of hope and excitement and optimism.

And yet I am posting this at 41 + 5, in the bath again, with my final handful of bath salts 😅

The emotional rollercoaster has been unbelievably difficult. I have been flip flopping between confidence & trust, and frustration & anxiety.

I have a whole new understanding of this period of time 💕

This for a bit of love in the stories so I am spreading the news far and wide!

It's our anniversary ✨

In such a short amount of time, meeting my husband has opened up my life and given me everything I always dreamed of - our little growing family 🐥🐣

I'm feeling so in love 🥰

(But yes, we did both forget 😅)

✨ Most antenatal classes miss this out ✨

Whether it's NHS, NCT, Hypnobirthing, private classes, you name it - I'm sure Postpartum isn't covered like this.

Your Postpartum deserves careful consideration, let me help you with a framework to do this 💐

✨Consistency✨

I've got to be honest with you lovely lot! I am surviving, not thriving at the moment! Sometimes it really has to be like that 😅 So my social media consistency is a bit non-existent.

I've got a lot I'm working on in person and I am juggling some big life changes.

Doula-ing is a huge priority of mine, because it really feels like my calling. But, I am navigating what I want this to look like for me and for my wonderful clients. Please bear with me!

Lots of love from
Emma 💐

✨ Honestly?! I am feeling the research burnout in my own pregnancy ✨

This is actually a time filled with some complex scientific concepts, maths and statistics, policy and politics, and after all that you still have to make your decisions for what can be high stakes choices.

But, I am accumulating a huge basis of reliable and balanced information, that I can tailor to you and your situation. The most important thing is that you are truly informed, meaning you can make choices that are truly yours.
