Birth With Choice

It’s almost your due date, and someone’s about to say the word “induction”.

Maybe it’ll be “we don’t let you go past 41 weeks”. Maybe “the risk of stillbirth doubles”. Maybe it’ll be said so casually you’ll find yourself saying okay before you’ve even worked out what you’re agreeing to.

Firstly, induction is an offer. You can go ahead, wait, decline, or ask for more time to think. The questions you ask in that room change everything about the answer you get.

Sometimes induction is absolutely the right call, a lot of the time it’s unnecessary. But how would you know?

You want to know what you’re saying yes or no to, and to feel completely solid that it’s the right decision for you and your baby.

So I’ve made a one-hour masterclass on exactly this: the real numbers, the questions, and the words to say.

✨ Comment INDUCTION and I’ll send you early doors access.

Save this for your next appointment, and send it to the pregnant friend who’s due any day now. 💛

Having a doula in today’s maternity system is quite honestly the best thing you can do to protect the birth you want.

It shouldn’t be the exception, it should be the norm.

If you’re serious about having the kind of birth you keep daydreaming about, then you need to be serious about putting the support in place to make it happen.

My doula diary is filling up into April 2027. Don’t leave it too late to have someone in your birth space whose whole job is to protect how you experience the most transformative moment of your life. ✨

If you’ve been thinking about getting support for your birth, now is the time to sort it.

My final Birth With Choice group course of the year is November 1st in Lytham and it only has two spaces left.
January is filling up too.
My doula availability for 2026 is almost gone and filling up to April 2027.
Monday’s Bump and Brew has sold out completely. 🎉🎉

Bump and Brew for postpartum is booking up too, this is for anyone who’s recently had their baby and wants a space that actually gets it. Hosted by myself and Janine Davis (The Pregnancy Emporium).

I’ve spent this year supporting families through the biggest shift in NHS maternity in decades. The Amos report. Rising intervention rates. Induction as standard. A system that is under pressure in ways that affect every. single. birth.

My knowledge in navigating the NHS maternity system and getting the best out of it, is why families travel hours to work with me.

The families I work with don’t leave my courses just feeling a bit more prepared. They walk into that room knowing exactly what’s happening, knowing what their options are, knowing how to use their voice when it matters most. Their birth partners know what to do. They know what questions to ask. They know the difference between a recommendation and a requirement.

If you want that — for yourself, or for someone you know — please tag them below or share this on. 🤍

Pretty niche. Pretty damn birth changing.

1. Wrote down what I was actually afraid of.
Not “I’m a bit nervous.” The actual sentence.
2. Worked out whose voice it was in.
Mostly a friend’s, as it happens.
3. Stopped taking birth advice from people who were handing me their trauma (unintentionally).
There’s a difference between a warning and someone putting something down.
4. Learned what my body was actually doing.
Not “just relax.” The actual physiology, so I had a reason to trust it.
5. Noticed which conversations I came away from feeling worse after.
Then intentionally stopped having them.
6. Decided what I believed in advance.
So I walked into my birth(s) as the most powerful version of myself.
7. Invested in my wellbeing as early as possible.
Instead of another tiny outfit that fits for six minutes.

None of it was aesthetic. Nobody’s putting “sorted out my inherited fear” on a bump photo. 😂 if you do tag me!

Fear is loud.
Ground work is quiet.
And we know the quiet always wins. 🤭

That’s exactly why Birth With You starts at 12 weeks, so you can sort all of THAT out and get on with enjoying your pregnancy and preparing for a positive birth experience.

I teach you the questions to ask when you’re told you HAVE to be induced.

You’re going to be offered an induction. Question is, are you being offered an induction because you genuinely need it or just because it’s written in a policy??

There’s a huge difference and our 45% c-section rate isn’t a coincidence.

Comment BABY to be ahead of your maternity care from as early as your 12 week scan.

I want to hear about your birth trauma.

Yes, everything I do at Birth With Choice exists to prevent it, and I’m done shying away from saying that outright, because it’s the truth.

Birth trauma affects 1 in 3 women. I’m here to change that.

Too many women get dismissed by the people who love them most, partners, friends, family, who simply don’t know how to handle it, so they stay quiet instead.

This is exactly why I’m so proud to be partnering with .co as a trusted partner. Mendara is the first app built alongside the to support women through birth trauma.

If you want to join, you’ll get 50% off your first month, then use the code BIRTHWITHCHOICE50 for 50% off your second month too.

I meant it at the start, I want to hear about your birth trauma and so do Mendara.
