One thing I wondered about before I had my home birth - was it going to be better than my hospital births?

I have always found pregnancy amazing and beautiful. Your body goes through many changes and endures so much but sometimes not all of these changes are pleasant and can leave you feeling uncomfortable, worried and tired. Most of these changes are very common and not dangerous. I will discuss a few common aliments and what you can do to feel better.

 Midwives are the specialists in pregnancy and birth!

We believe that the midwife’s role is to assist and care for women; to understand the birth process emotionally, mentally and physically and to support and educate women to be able to make informed choices.

The first hour is the most important hour after your baby is born…

Every woman all over the world is equipped with all that is needed to provide warmth, love, comfort and nutrition to her new baby.  Where possible It is important that the first hour of your baby’s life is uninterrupted or not disturbed.  In this way the built in instincts are ignited and nature starts to provide the baby with his/her first feed …Colostrum.

The first week after your baby is born is often busy with family members wanting to meet the new baby. However try to stagger this out as you and your partner need time to adjust to being home as a new family.

Breastfeeding may well be the most natural thing to do when feeding your baby, however it does not all come easy to us.

I've been trying and trying to think of a way to explain private midwifery care in a nutshell to someone who hasn't experienced it. And I think I've finally cracked it...when you have care with a designated midwife, it's all about you.  Well, your baby as well, but you feel like the most important person in the room, always.

Men: when the woman you love is being taken over by an oxytocin fuelled trip, you are going to become an adrenalin factory! Why? Because when we were hunter gathers she needed protecting. She still DOES!

Foods to help you Conceive

With modern busy lifestyles our diets have changed compared to our previous generations. This change in diet may have affected our ability to have a baby. A good start to using your diet to maximize your chances of falling pregnant is to ensure you are not overweight and to cook all your meals from fresh rather than using ready-made meals.
