My births have been absolute initiations for me, especially my first birth which ended up in a full cascade of hospital interventions,

I would not change my path but if I could go back to when I was a young maiden pregnant with my first baby I would tell myself this:

1. Make sure you are planning to birth somewhere that makes you feel safe and with people who make you feel safe and loved.
2. Every intervention or check is simply an offer, you get to choose if you are a yes or a no to it. It’s safe to ask for more information or more time to make decisions and it is your right to decline any medical interventions
3. Trust yourself, you hold WAY more wisdom than you realise and you are the person who is most in tune with your birth, body and baby so listen to the knowing that is within you.
4. Spend time in your pregnancy exploring and healing your childhood and ancestral behaviour patterns. Especially the ways you respond when under pressure or when you need to use your voice to express needs because these are likely to come up in birth and mothering
5. Plan for your postpartum, you don’t know this yet but you and your baby need support, you need someone to help prepare nourishing foods and hold you while you rest and recover

Make sure you follow ❤️

This mentality is so prevalent in motherhood, birth and postpartum.

This idea that I did it alone, I did it hard, I survived it, toughen up and push through.

That motherhood is meant to be hard, and lonely, that we are meant to travel through it in a fog of exhaustion and coffee. Pushing down our own needs to be the super mum our family needs.

This is how wounding is passed down.

We deserve so much more tham just survival.

It is a physiological need to be supported, to rest, to be nourished and cared for as a new mum.

Yes we can push though but it takes a toll that often shows up as we age, early disease, depletion, depression that is so prevalent in our world.

In the sacred window after birth we have the opportunity to create long term health or illness in our bodies. We need community, we need to give ourselves permission to rest and I mean truely rest in bed with your baby.

The healing starts when we change the narrative, when we learn to come together and support new families, when we nourish our mamas and hold each other through the many challenges that arise on our journey.

If we want to care for the baby we must care for the mother and family.

If we want to create healing that ripples forward into the future we must care for the mother and family.

So grateful for all the people who are choosing to change this pattern, who are opening to receiving and to give the care we all need to thrive.

We get to be the change this world needs.

Love,
Sarah
