Making Birth Comfortable

Expecting a baby? Time to dig out the christmas fairy lights, cosy blankets and beautiful music!

Ask yourself this about your birth environment - would I want to have sex in here? Do I feel safe and relaxed? If the answer is no you might want to adjust the environment.

Oxytocin provides the power behind your surges (contractions) and works best in environments that are dimly lit, have a feeling of privacy and feel familiar. On my course we go into a lot of detail about our amazing hormones, the power behind them and how we can influence them even more, they really are absolutely amazing!

Make sure you pop all of these deliciously comforting things in your birth bag and create a cosy, relaxing birth environment so that Oxytocin can thrive!
