My grandchildren, family, friends and women around

My grandchildren, family, friends and women around the world inspire me every day towards my passion for women's health and wellbeing.
I feel that it is more important than ever before that women are supported and have access to up to date, evidence-based childbirth education.
Your birthing experience is a life time memory that stays with you forever. This is why l teach the positive birth program. l want women to make their own informed choices for their birth based on knowledge and not based on fear however their birth unfolds.
Knowledge is power!!

My classes will be starting in January on the Gold coast, for more information please go to my website in my Bio

Skin to skin after a caesarean
・・・
This mum and baby were getting aquainted after their caesarean birth. This little bub was benefiting and getting ready to latch. You can see her rooting (searching for a nipple) licking, and attempting to latch.

Talk to your midwife about skin to skin in the operating room if possible if you are expecting to have a caesarean.

Did you know labour is less about your cervix opening and more about the thickness and contracting power of the uterus moving baby down and out?
Read more about what empowering birth expert Carla Hartley has to say about this revelatory perspective in birth physiology - it’s such valuable information.
.
“We think in pictures and we should be painting accurate pictures. The cervix nor the vagina bloom. The cervix is not a zip lock bag. The purpose of labor is NOT the creation of an opening or a hole... The purpose of labor contractions and retractions is to BUILD the fundus, which will, when it is ready, EJECT the baby, like a piston. Without a nice thick fundus there is no power to get baby out....the cervix does not dilate out....it dilates UP as a result of the effort to pull muscles up into the uterus to push muscles up to the fundus. The cervical dilation is secondary to that. The cervix is pulled up as a result of the building of the fundus. Assigning a number to cervical dilation is of little consequence and we make a huge mistake by interpreting progress or predicting time of birth to that number. Any experienced midwife or OB can tell you that the cervix can be manipulated and that a woman whose cervix is at 7 could have the baby in a few minutes or a few hours. If more providers and educators knew the truth about birth physiology, we could make a huge difference for mothers. What is important is to keep her well supported for the purpose of the appropriate chemistry, to keep her well hydrated and nourished for muscle strength, and to believe in her. We should be supporting her so that her physiology and that of her baby are unhindered, so they can finish what they started. We should not be measuring, poking, or interpreting her labor. THIS CHANGE in teaching about labor could make such a difference for women who are imagining what is happening in their bodies during labour. How much more strength might they have if they have an accurate picture?" -Carla Hartley
