Ally’s Beautiful Healing Water Birth

We did it! Everything we’d practiced, visualised and prepared for.
This birth was so beautiful and healing for me as a Mother and the amount of growth that has come from this as a couple and family was so much more than I could have ever hoped for.

Zoe’s Empowered and Informed Induction Birth Story

I was booked in to be induced on the 24th (my due date). My waters were broken and then had the syntocinon drip to bring on labour. The surges came on pretty quickly.

“From a moment that I had feared my whole life & even said I would try for a planned c section when I was younger to change into the most incredible & magical experience of my life is so amazing! 😍

Kyra’s Rapid Accidental Homebirth

“It was such an intense and unexpected experience, and was the best we could possibly have asked for. I can just see Brett sitting Madeline down on the family’s sacred birth rug every 31st December and telling her the story of how she came to be.”
Our baby girl arrived on New Years Eve in a very rapid…

Waters broke 6.30am, Tuesday 4th August. I spent the day at home on my ball, applying essential oils, visualisations, relaxing, getting my fluids up and fuelling my body with nutritious foods so I was energised for the journey ahead. 4pm surges were 3-4min apart
