I have been working so much lately that my online presence has been somewhat neglected. This hasn't been helped by the disorganisation of my website and other pages. But I have finally just managed to sit down and just get on with my website. It is complete. I have also, hopefully managed to create some order around my various pages, so hopefully I will be able to check in and share all that delicious babiness that you are all here for.
If you would like to check out my new website, it can be found here.

Beautifully and gently guided out by the midwife. Normalise birth. X
THE SPLASH //
This fourth time mama had her own hand on baby's head while it emerged and then with one more push, baby was guided out by the midwife. (Baby did not fall on the floor.)
Midwife laid her down gently so mama could sit back and reach for her baby.
Mama pushed her baby out in whatever position she felt best in. Squatting next to the bed happened to be where she felt best, only 20 minutes after arriving at the birth center!

The censorship of birth photography needs to end in 2017. Birth needs to be normalised. There are too many wounded mothers, traumatised by their own experience. We owe it to the next generation to improve the face of birth. Women need to be exposed to real images of birth so they may birth with confidence.

"We Are Not Animals"...A Day in the Dunkirk Refugee Camp - The Birth Hub
If you’re like most people, you probably thought the refugee ‘problem’ in France had been sorted. The world’s media watched as the Calais ‘Jungle’ was dismantled and refugees shuffled onto buses. We shrugged and felt sad and went on with our day. But you would be wrong if you thought everyone had be...
