Why Birth Education Matters (Even If You’ve Done It Before)

Empower yourself for birth with Calmbirth education. Learn tools, confidence, and calm for first-time and returning parents.

Oct 143 min read

As a midwife of well over 10 years, I have seen some powerful women bring their babies earth side. Something that always stood out for me was not necessarily their ‘calm’ or ‘composed’ demeanour through labour, it was their ability to walk into the discomfort head on. While pregnant with my third baby, I was fortunate enough to read one of my now favourite books by @rheadempseybirth ‘Birth With Confidence’. She speaks so eloquently about how to get friendly with pain and how to stretch your capacity. It’s the first book I recommend to any pregnant person that asks.

So this is my message: get comfortable with being uncomfortable!

Want to learn more? There’s one spot left for @calmbirth with Bloom in January 2026. To book, follow the link in bio or send us a DM 🌸

Birth asks us to be brave — not because we’re fearless, but because we show up anyway. It’s okay to tremble, to doubt, to feel the edge of what you think you can handle. Bravery in birth isn’t the absence of fear — it’s breathing through it, moment by moment, and discovering the meaning of strength.

Come and join me in my next @calmbirth course to learn about your strength and more. To book, follow the link in my bio ✨

Got some absolute rippers out of the @raisedgood Parenting Summit over the last week. I love this quote particularly from @droscarserrallach. I teach this very thing in my @calmbirth course. When we used to live in villages we received imprints of mothering and learned skills to equip us for when we moved into our own mothering era. It would have felt instinctual and natural.

Perhaps this is where we get the idea that we’re ‘failures’ because we feel like we don’t know what we’re doing, but we have this biological wiring that tells us we should know. Society is different now, and we are more isolated as mothers than we have ever been.

So, the next time you feel those dark thoughts creeping in, remind yourself you’re doing it in a completely different way and show yourself some compassion. Because mothering is a learned skill. We are ALL learning every day 🌸

A calm birth doesn’t have to mean a quiet one. Low tones and moaning are incredibly beneficial in relaxing your pelvic floor and allowing your body to open. Just one of the many tools and techniques we teach in Calmbirth ✨

Essential oils are a wonderful tool for safe use in pregnancy, labour and birth. Aromatherapy has long been observed as a powerful way to set the tone of your birth space 💫

I used essential oils a lot during pregnancy. In the evenings I would sit on my birth ball, light a candle, set my intentions for labour and birth, practice my @calmbirth Conscious Breath Techniques and listen to the @calmbirth relaxations. It was a beautiful way to connect with my baby and my body, while strengthening my subconscious resources for birth.

I had the incredible honour of receiving a Closing the Bones ceremony with my amazing postpartum doula @_bec.wong_ and the lovely @belleandthewild. I can’t describe the deep reverence and connection I felt through the day. I felt so held, and so loved. This was a very intentional choice for me, the opportunity to close off after the opening for my pregnancy and birth. After a journey inward, I felt my nervous system come back into alignment and my body felt stronger than before. I am so grateful to receive this ancient wisdom, passed to me by my sisters ✨🧙🏼‍♀️

Happy World Breastfeeding week! (a bit late, cause #mumlife)

I’m breastfeeding for the third time with my littlest babe 🤱🏼 through all the engorgement, soaked breast pads, nipple pain, vasospasm, mastitis, nipple shields, nip lash, cracks, expressing, booby trapped naps, cluster feeding and leaking, I am so grateful to my body that I have been able to nourish all three of my children. It has been a challenge every single time, and rarely Instagram worthy. But there’s nothing quite like looking down at your beautiful little chick feeding while she gazes into your eyes and smiles (and subsequently sprays milk everywhere) 🥹

So here’s to all the mums and parents who are performing several full-time jobs at once, you’re bloody nailing it 🌸

Calmbirth is so much more than breathing—it’s a complete mindset shift. ✨⁠
⁠
Yes, we teach breathwork, but we also dive deep into your mind, body, and birth experience, helping you reframe beliefs, understand birth physiology, and feel truly prepared—no matter how your journey unfolds.⁠
⁠
Because when you change the way you think about birth, you change the way you experience it. 💛⁠

Packing for Birth? I’ve got you covered!⁠
⁠
As a midwife, I know exactly what you’ll actually need (and what you won’t!) when heading to the hospital for birth. That’s why I’ve put together a free Hospital Bag Checklist—so you can feel calm, prepared, and ready for the big day. ⁠
⁠
Download it now via my website—link in bio! ⁠

You already have everything you need within you to birth with strength, trust, and confidence. 💛✨⁠
⁠
Your body is designed for this. Your instincts will guide you. You are capable, powerful, and enough.⁠

How to Create a Calm Birthing Atmosphere ✨⁠
⁠
The environment you birth in can have a huge impact on how labour unfolds. When you feel safe, supported, and undisturbed, your body naturally produces more oxytocin—the hormone that drives labour forward. A calm space helps keep stress hormones (like cortisol) low, allowing your body to work efficiently and intuitively. ⁠
⁠
Your birth space should feel nurturing, safe, and empowering—whether you’re at home, in a birth centre, or in a hospital. In our Calmbirth® courses, we guide you through practical ways to create a birth environment that supports a smooth, positive experience.⁠
⁠
#CalmBirth #BirthSpace #PositiveBirth #BirthPreparation #calmbirthaustralia #scbabycommunity #sunshinecoastmidwifery #sunshinecoastcalmbirth

A Positive Birth Starts Before Labour Begins 🤎⁠
⁠
I see it all the time—when parents come into birth feeling calm, informed, and confident, everything shifts. Birth isn’t just about what happens on the day; it’s about how you’ve prepared, the mindset you’ve nurtured, and the trust you’ve built in your body before labour even begins.⁠
⁠
That’s why I love teaching Calmbirth®. It’s not about rigid plans or ticking boxes—it’s about giving you the knowledge and tools to navigate birth your way, no matter what unfolds. It’s about helping you and your birth partner feel ready, supported, and empowered to welcome your baby with confidence.⁠
⁠
Because when you prepare with trust and intention, birth becomes something to embrace—not fear.⁠

Fed up of a sticky and hard to move birth ball? Grab a birth ball cover!⁠
⁠
I used a ball everyday in my third trimester and took it to hospital with me to utilise during my labour. I recall sticking to the ball in the middle of summer and it being hard to move around the room. This cover solves both of those issues and it also makes the easier on the eye because the fabric is gorgeous!⁠
⁠
9 Reasons to cover your exercise ball for birth ...⁠
⁠
💜 Sweat, oils and and fluids can make an uncovered ball slippery⁠
💜 A covered ball won’t stick to your bum when you stand up⁠
💜 Snuggle up and cuddle your ball without sticking to it⁠
💜 Carry and transport your ball easily with the handle⁠
💜 Hang your ball out of the way if need be⁠
💜 Nicer to look at home and personalises you birth environment⁠
💜 Easy and quick to use⁠
💜 Your ball won’t be mixed up with hospital equipment⁠
💜 Easy to remove and wash if necessary⁠
⁠
Our cover can be used on a yoga bolster, peanut ball or hospital yoga ball.⁠

Breath, Hormones & Birth: How Stress Affects Labour⁠
⁠
Birth is not just physical—it’s deeply hormonal. Your body runs on a delicate balance of hormones that either support labour or slow it down. Stress triggers cortisol, the body’s fight-or-flight hormone, which can interfere with oxytocin, the key hormone that helps labour progress smoothly.⁠
⁠
This is where the breath comes in. Deep, slow breathing signals to your nervous system that you are safe, reducing cortisol levels and allowing oxytocin to flow freely. The more relaxed you are, the more your body can do what it was designed to do.⁠
⁠
Your breath is your anchor—it grounds you, calms you, and helps create the ideal environment for birth to unfold as gently as possible.⁠
⁠
In our Calmbirth courses we teach you how to harness the power of the breath so you can move through labour with confidence, ease, and trust in your body.

A Dad’s Perspective on Calmbirth® 💛✨⁠

New mothers are as vulnerable as her newborn, particularly in the first 6 weeks as she lands from her birthing journey. Many cultures believe that our postpartum experience dictates how we will walk through parenthood.

It is a time to REST and deeply honour your body, nurturing yourself as gently and carefully as you do your baby.

Remember, we are also birthing ourselves as new mothers ✨

Hey Bloomers! 🌼 We're back with our next instalment in the Hormones Series!
Let’s talk about Human Placental Lactogen (hPL)

🤰 What It Is: hPL is a hormone made by the placenta.
💪 What It Does:
1. Nourishes Baby: It helps send more nutrients to your growing baby by making sure there’s enough glucose (sugar) in your blood.
2. Prepares for Breastfeeding: It gets your body ready for breastfeeding by helping your breasts develop and produce milk.
3. Energy Boost: It helps break down fats to give you more energy while keeping glucose available for your baby.
💡 Why It Matters: hPL is one of the many ways your body naturally supports a healthy pregnancy and prepares for the arrival of your little one.
