Everybody has a story to tell
http://blog.birthcoach.com.au/everybody-has-a-story-to-tell
Everybody has a story to tell. Everybody has a story to tell. I am sick of being judged. At first the usual questions of "when are you getting married? When are you having a baby? And when are you having another one? Seemed ok to begin with and then the "I hope your not having anymore because kids cost money" began and started a whole new set of questioning. But this story isn't about what was going on for me, this is about me doing the very thing I was despising in my life - judging. Here I was judging ...

http://blog.birthcoach.com.au/what-happens-when-breast-isnt-best
What happens when breast isnt best? What happens when breast isnt best? June 3, 2013. My tower of strength came crashing down today, I have cried so many tears I can hardly see to write this. Breast is best, however, I would highly advise you to stop breast feeding immediately and put him on hypoallergenic formula. I would like to see him thriving as soon as possible. But then she pointed out that I was still breastfeeding. I support whatever choice you make, after all, you are your babies advocate!

My children are my teachers
http://blog.birthcoach.com.au/my-children-are-my-teachers
My children are my teachers. My children are my teachers. You have selected me to be your mummy and have been sent with a purpose. To teach me some vital lessons and to shape and guide me to be who I am. Every journey is filled with highs and lows and decisions that can change our lives. Yes there are easy options and yet life can sometimes throw you a curve ball when you least expect it. If life was an easy journey and there were no challenges how would learn and grow? For what purpose is this challenge?

http://blog.birthcoach.com.au/a-choice-for-birth
A Choice for Birth. A Choice for Birth. Why did I choose a home birth third time round? We can have excuses, or we can have health, love, longevity, understanding, adventure, money, happiness. We design our lives through the power of our choices.". Homebirth may not be for everyone and I am not wishing to push homebirth in anyway, merely telling my journey of how I got here, after previously going down the path of hospital births, this was MY choice and I made an informed choice. On your back is the most...

Why I chose to have my placenta encapsulated. Why I chose to have my placenta encapsulated. I did my research and came upon placentabenefits.info, would I be doing any harm by giving it a go? I was curious and very interested in learning some natural methods to aid recovery and healing post birth. Read about what I have learned here. This amazing organ that nurtured my babies, fed them and supported their growth for 9 months was full of nutrients, minerals, oxytocin and iron. Well why not?

A Breastfeeding Journey
http://blog.birthcoach.com.au/a-breastfeeding-journey
There is no doubt the benefits for both mother and baby with breastfeeding. I love breastfeeding and the bonding time that is just for my baby and I. Skin to skin, oxytocin time and all essential vitamins, minerals, antibodies and nutritional needs for a growing baby. So what happens when it doesn't go to plan? Sometimes too many well meaning caregivers giving conflicting advice can also be a block and the mother then may feel incapable, or that she has failed. Take a step outside into the fresh air,...
