I saw this post yesterday by @wildoakbirth and it I saw this post yesterday by @wildoakbirth and it really spoke to me. Her face. The words. Both so strong. One hand to belly, one hand to heart. Connecting. ❤️ “She looked right at me and it was as if we had this mutual understanding that YES, this work is hard. But it is work that she’s absolutely capable of.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Right after this, she closed her eyes and smiled, one hand on her belly and one on her heart, as she spoke “I love you’s” to her soon-to-be-born daughter.” Posted @withregram • @wildoakbirth I know some you are reaching your due date, or even past it, just waiting. Know that it may well be hard, but you are so capable. 💪🏼 🙌🏻 sending all the love and strength to you xxxx #ufo #allfours #babydue2021 #birthtips #prenatalyogasurrey #pregnancyyogafarnham #antenatalclassessurrey #knowledgeispower #strongandcapable
Optimal Foetal Positioning, what exactly is it and Optimal Foetal Positioning, what exactly is it and what can you do help? During Yo Mamas #prenatalyoga we often talk about the importance of a baby’s position before labour begins. The term ‘Optimal Fetal Positioning’ was created by birth educator Pauline Scott and midwife Jean Sutton years ago to describe how women can help their babies to assume the best position for a safe and straightforward birth. Ideally, your baby lines up to fit through your pelvis as easily as possible. The best position for this is Left Occiput Anterior (LOA). To be in this position, baby needs to be head down, with your baby’s back on the left side of the front of your tummy. Baby’s face is pointing midway between your right hip and spine. Your baby’s head will easily move to a ‘chin tucked to chest’ position so that the smallest part of the head presses down onto your cervix first. HOWEVER this does not mean if your baby isn’t LOA that there is something wrong. We live a more sedentary life to our ancestors, generally sitting for longer periods of time on a computer, or watching television on a big slouchy sofa! To encourage an optimum position for your baby… ✨Try to keep knees lower than hips, using cushions under your bottom and your lower back.. ✨Kneel on the floor leaning over beanbag, cushions or birth ball when watching tv. ✨Sit facing the back of a chair, resting arms on the back of the chair. ✨Use a wedge or cushion under your bottom when driving to avoid pelvis tilting back. ✨When resting/sleeping, lie on your side, preferably left, with a pillow in between your legs. And lastly use your yoga practice.... do not underestimate the power of a simple all fours position. 📸 one of my lovely pregnant yoga mamas @mrschuckberry taken by @cherylcattonphotography for my website 💫 #knowledgeispower #prenatalyogasurrey #pregnancyyogabenefits #pregnancyyogafarnham #optimalfoetalpositioning #antenatalclassessurrey #birthpreperation #kghypnobirthing #yogaforpregnancyandbirth #farnhamlife #farnhammummies #activebirthtips

TRUE!! There have been various studies carried ou TRUE!! There have been various studies carried out which tell us this is factual, mostly based on our hormones! Research shows that higher levels of oestrogen and progesterone, the pregnancy hormones that stimulate fetal hair growth, also relax the oesophageal sphincter, allowing stomach acid to back up into the oesophagus and cause gastric reflux…the dreaded heartburn! So basically if you have higher levels of pregnancy hormones, then your baby is likely to develop more hair. Higher pregnancy hormones means the greater chance you have of suffering with reflux, because the top bit of stomach, almost think of it like an elastic band, will be looser, so acid will creep up. Reflux is generally more common in the third trimester of pregnancy due to lack of space and increased pressure from your growing babe. Anyone out there who can confirm this for us?! I didn’t really ever suffer with heartburn, nor were my babies born with long flowing locks!

Welcome to Yo Mamas! So this is me, Laura, though Welcome to Yo Mamas! So this is me, Laura, thought I’d introduce myself with a few fun facts, thank you for all the new follows 👋🏻 💫I’m a Taurus and 34yrs old. 💫My husband and I have been together for 13 years, we got married in 2012 on the Isle of Wight AND WE HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY!!!! 💫I am a Mama myself, Florence age nearly 8yrs (gulp!), Arlo aged 5yrs and Juniper aged 3yrs. Wonderful and bonkers in equal measures. 💫All 3 of my babes were born at home....however my middle one, Arlo, was very nearly not. He made quite the dramatic entrance after midwives realised he was ‘Brow presentation’....hence why I was pushing for ages, intense pain, but no crowning!!! Long story and quite the drama, but I think hearing my midwife talk about caesarean and on the phone to the ambulance gave me some super powers and I managed to deliver him.....almost in to the toilet!! 💫Also currently have 4 cats, which is ridiculous as not cat or even pet people really but our cat who is only 1 had 3 kittens recently!!!!! We adore them all but only going to keep one of the kits. 💫I am a paediatric nurse, started my training in 2005, my first job was Kingston Neonatal Unit, I then worked at Great Ormond Street Hospital for 10years and more recently have moved to my local hospital at the Royal Surrey, on the children’s ward, which I love. 💫I completed my pregnancy yoga training with @yogamamalondon in Putney, an amazing programme, very empowering and strangely emotional...but in a such good way. Women are amazing...learning about women, in a group of strong women, being taught by women, you can imagine! All the hormones, all the love! Highly recommend. 💫I’m a real birth junkie, love pregnancy, labour, babies, breastfeeding, love all birth stories, love women, love it all. 💫Pre kids a girlfriend and I once went to Ibiza for just 24hours, hit the beach when we arrived, then went clubbing all night and hopped back on plane at 0630am. Don’t even think we took a bag! 💃🏼 ✌🏻Those were the days aay!! 💫I bloody love marmite, but also partial to Bovril on toast too…don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! 📸 @cherylcattonphotography for my new website
Upright Forward Open…even when in a hospital bed Upright Forward Open…even when in a hospital bed. This amazing Mama attended pregnancy yoga with me, as well as Hypnobirthing with Sally, virtually from Italy! These pictures have that have kindly been shared, show that despite giving birth in Italy when Covid restrictions were intense, Marina still got in her zone. Like a Boss! ✨🎉💪🏼 Remembering all her active birthing tips and allowing her Hypnobirthing to give her the knowledge and strength to birth her baby girl positively. Staying upright during labour has been proven to shorten the length of your labour & improve comfort levels. ❤️You baby will have more space to move and descend. Lowering your risk of perineal trauma too! ❤️Gravity will assist! As well as allowing good blood flow to baby/uterus. ❤️Women who use upright positions report to feel more confident and positive about their birth. If you are pregnant, save this post to come back you. You might find yourself in hospital and consenting to continual monitoring, in an clinical environment. Remember the bed can be used to help you and your body. Your birth, your baby 💪🏼 🙌🏻🙏🏻 #uprightbirth #activelabour #hospitalbirth #activebirthworkshop #yogaforpregnancyandbirth #prenatalyogafarnham #ctgmonitoring #kghypnobirthing #yogaforbirth #prenatalyoga #biomechanicsforbirth #birthrights #pregancyyogafarnham
