Anuradha & Surya's birth story continued ✨

Vijaya mam said my baby's heart rate was going down and I might need an episiotomy. But she assured me that's not the first option and she wouldn't do any procedure without my consent. They gave me an IV drip and oxygen mask. Slowly the heart rate improved, but we didn't have much time so Vijaya mam asked me to push harder. For some reason, I was not panicked even when the heart rate was going down. I knew they would take care and I was just listening to her. After 5-6 pushes around 7:30 AM, the baby boy was out without any intervention. 3.45 kgs of happiness and joy 😊

After delivering placenta, Vijaya mam told me that the cord was very short which led to lower heart rate.

Sanctum gives a lot of comfort. Their support was incredible throughout the pregnancy. Diet and yoga classes really helped me. Big thanks to Shruti for the Lamaze classes. They were very informative and helped us to understand the situations better.

The doctors listen to the issues and don't dismiss them and most importantly they never treated me like a patient. They explained WHY for every issue or the discomfort, not just giving some prescription and saying "ya this is common". My pregnancy overall was very smooth.

Thanks to Vijaya mam, Kiran, Smitha, Dhwani, Eugine and the nursing staff for all the support during pregnancy, labour and postpartum. Sanctum will always remain a special place in our hearts❤️

Oh, what a year it has been. ✨
2025 has truly been an honor.

This year, we had the privilege of walking alongside over 1,500 families (in person and digitally). And beyond that, there are thousands of you who found us through this space. In the comments, in our DMs, in quiet late-night messages - looking for a place to let go of old trauma, to build confidence for an upcoming birth, or simply to understand what respectful maternity care really means. We love that Sanctum is more than "just a place to birth". ❤️

Beyond our consults and classes, we wanted families to think of Sanctum as a place where people connected, softened, laughed, cried, and found joy in one another. So we opened up our space for some heart-warming sessions and we deeply thank and - two incredible mammas who spearheaded these initiatives.

Thank you to everyone who followed us, supported us, learned with us, and stood by Sanctum through 2025. We hope we’ve touched your lives in some small or meaningful way, and we look forward to doing so again in 2026.

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year. ✨

IVF ≠ automatically high-risk pregnancy!!

IVF changes how conception happens not how pregnancy works once it’s established.

💗 The placenta forms and functions the same
💗 By ~12 weeks, how conception occurred is biologically irrelevant
💗 By ~20 weeks, placental hormones fully regulate pregnancy and labor timing

When IVF pregnancies have higher risks, it’s usually due to individual factors (age, blood pressure, twins, etc.) NOT IVF ITSELF!

That’s why many guidelines recommend individualized care, not routine intervention, for uncomplicated IVF pregnancies.

💬 Questions worth asking your provider:
❓ Is there a medical reason I can’t wait for labor to start on its own?
❓ What signs would truly require intervention?
❓ Can decisions be based on how this pregnancy is progressing?

IVF may start the pregnancy but the placenta runs it. And the placenta doesn’t know how conception happened 😊

"Elimination Communication wasn’t something new, just something we had forgotten.”

Our EC mamma, Sahithi shares her EC journey with her son and how tuning into her baby’s cues made diaper-free living intuitive, joyful, and stay deeply rooted to our culture.

Interested in exploring EC? Join our upcoming class on Sunday, 28th December.

Rs 1,00,000 — that’s how much most Tier-1 Indian parents spend on diapers, wipes, and rash creams for one child before potty training.

No one tells you this when you’re pregnant. No one puts this huge number in the budget. And by the time potty training begins, you’ve already paid the price — financially and emotionally.

Elimination Communication (EC) is not early potty training. It’s not “holding your baby over the toilet all day”. It’s learning your baby’s natural signals and responding to them.

Ready to start? Join our EC class and learn how to tune in to your baby’s signals!

Healthy Mother Certified Infant Massage Trainer Workshop ✅ Completed!!

7 awesome women from various parts of India came with a passion to spread the art, science and the heart of infant massage..!

These lovely women from different backgrounds (including a pediatrician and an obgyn) came with a single intention to make sure that parents across India are enabled to make baby massage as an intrinsic part of routine right from the newborn stage and make it as an enjoyable experience for the baby.

Healthy Mother Infant Massage Trainer Workshop pertains to the Indian context which is really important as our practices and cultural beliefs are very different from other countries.

The training includes topics such as
⭐ History and evolution of infant massage practices
⭐ Science about the importance of touch for a newborn
⭐ Benefits
⭐ Discussions around the massage practices - myths vs facts
⭐ preterm infants
⭐ Ideal time to massage baby
⭐ Consent
⭐ Integrative touch
⭐ Practical sessions
And much more!!

The practical sessions involve making sure every trainer is trained to do the strokes correctly by giving them enough opportunity to practice on the doll.

Absolutely fabulous day of teaching this passionate group of students, who will go on to change the way infant massage, bonding & attachment is viewed, as well as confidently embraced by parents in their respective communities!!

Winter often makes parents wonder if infant massage should be paused. The truth is, massage can continue even in cold weather — it just needs a little extra care. Creating a warm space, using gentle strokes, and paying close attention to your baby’s comfort helps ensure they stay relaxed and cosy throughout the session.

Massage not only supports circulation and relaxation but also strengthens bonding, which is especially comforting during colder months.

Pro tip: Choosing the right massage oil matters in winter. Almond oil works beautifully for babies with dry or sensitive skin, while mustard oil has a naturally warming effect that helps keep the body comfortable in cold weather. Always warm the oil between your palms before applying it to your baby’s skin.

With mindful preparation and your baby’s cues guiding you, infant massage can remain a safe, soothing ritual all winter long. ❄️🤱

Join our Infant Care Basics Class happening this weekend (20-21st December) and learn massage techniques, baby care, colic routine and much more! DM us to sign up.
