We are very excited to welcome our perfect little baby boy into the world! Born on Wednesday, no name yet but we’re all doing great! 3.7kg and 55cm long. He was 41+4 with no signs of coming (not fully engaged etc). Tried four stretch and sweeps plus every other trick daily (spinning babies, miles circuit, foods, sex etc!) with no luck so hesitantly agreed to an induction as we were getting pretty anxious too! Thankfully, the induction went great!
I’ve been inspired to share my breech vaginal birth story after seeing pictures of an amazing breech vaginal birth on your Calmbirth Instagram story.
In a world driven by technology and fast-paced living, the essence of genuine connection often gets lost in the noise. Human beings are inherently social creatures, seeking companionship, understanding, and a sense of belonging.
Calmbirth really helped me get through my labour. I don’t think I would have had my positive birth experience without all the information and resources my partner and I received from Calmbirth. The toolbox was extremely helpful, and by using the calm breath technique I was able to work through the contractions at every stage, visualising each one as a temporary sensation that will pass. Karen was an amazing facilitator and both my partner and I strongly recommend the course to all first time parents.
Calmbirth gave me the tools to believe in my body and baby and know that they would work together for a positive outcome.
My husband sat beside me the entire time rubbing my back, holding my hand, or giving me water when needed. He also encouraged me to move and change position although, i was most comfortable on my side or on the toilet. It gave him the confidence to tell the midwife’s my requests and support me in anyway he could.
I cannot thank Karen enough for the knowledge and confidence it gave me to have such a positive birth. I can’t wait to do it again
