A Beautiful Base for Postpartum

​

We spend so much time preparing for labour and birth — but what about afterwards?

The fourth trimester can be beautiful, overwhelming, exhausting, emotional, messy and completely life-changing, all at once. We're given so much information about how to give birth, but hardly anyone tells you how to actually navigate those first weeks and months as a new mum. That's what this workshop is for.

A relaxed, honest, practical 2-hour session with me, designed to help you feel properly prepared for life after your baby arrives.

​

What I'll cover

🌿 The fourth trimester — what those first three months really look like, and why they can feel so intense physically, emotionally and mentally

🤍 Your postpartum body — honest talk about recovery, whatever kind of birth you have: bleeding, afterpains, pelvic floor, perineal healing, breast changes, feeding, caesarean recovery, and what's normal vs. when to seek help

🩷 Matrescence — becoming a mother is its own huge transition, and I'll help you understand why you might not feel quite like yourself for a while (and why that's okay)

🧠 Hormones, emotions & mental wellbeing — the emotional rollercoaster of those early days, and the difference between normal ups and downs and needing extra support

🥣 Rest, recovery & nourishment — practical ways to look after yourself, because that's part of looking after your baby too

🏡 Preparing your home — simple things you can do before baby arrives to make those first weeks easier

👨‍👩‍👧 Building your village — working out who's really in your support network, and how to ask for the help you need

🚪 Visitors & boundaries — protecting your postpartum bubble without the guilt

🍼 Feeding & newborn life — an honest, no-judgement conversation about the reality of life with a newborn

✨ Your postpartum plan — you'll leave with the start of your own personal plan for recovery, support and those first weeks

​

You'll leave with...

• A realistic picture of what those first weeks might actually look and feel like

• Practical tools for your physical and emotional recovery

• A personalised postpartum plan to take home

• A clearer idea of the support you'll need, and how to ask for it

• Hopefully, a lot more confidence that you really can do this (because you totally can :)) ​

​

Who's it for?

This workshop is suitable for expectant mums at any stage of pregnancy, whether you're preparing for your first baby or adding another little person to your family. You don't need to have completed a hypnobirthing course to attend.

If you've been thinking "I wish someone would actually tell me what happens after the birth..." — this is for you.
