Did you know that when a baby is born, they possess an innate ability to find their mother's breast all on their own? It's like a beautiful dance between mother and baby, an instinctive connection that holds numerous benefits for both. 🌟✨ Immediate and continuous skin to skin, with baby placed tummy on your tummy, allows your baby to search for the breast using instinctive movements. The nuzzling helps to boost oxytocin, which is added to by the gentle (sometimes not so gentle) kicks as baby moves their way up toward to nipple. Thise helps to keep the uterus contracted after birth. Mamas temperature adjusts automatically to support baby in maintaining a normal temperature, with her nipple radiating heat an additional degree warmer than the rest of the body. This helps baby to find the breast through touch. The Montgomery Tubercles secrete a substance that smells like amniotic fluid, and colostrum smells like sweet milky goodness so baby can follow their nose to their first feed. Babies don't need to be forced to the breast in a cradle hold, breast tissue sandwiched into their mouth in order to feed. Undisturbed birth, undisturbed bonding, undisturbed skin to skin naturally supports baby led feeding. Have you experienced the Breast Crawl in action?

Pain free birth is not the goal. Birth is designed to be the most transcendent experience. The transformation from maiden to Mother, for each and every child welcomed into your heart. The enormity of this transformation demands your attention. A transition this big naturally comes with intense discomfort. Emotional. Physical. Spiritual. We are supposed to move through the pain. It cannot be bigger than you because it is you. A symbol of your power and strength. We are meant to emerge from birth with the unmistakable conviction of our capacity to hold power, to do the impossible. It is a conviction you take through each moment of motherhood and the rest of your life. I CAN do this, I am already do it. Pain is not negative. It is a message. You can listen to it, lean into it, work with it. Trust it. And trust that you have everything you need to embrace it. You do not need to endure. You do not need to suffer. You do not need to fear pain. Your body is designed to work in partnership with the intensity of birth. In physiological birth your body will release endorphins (pain relieving hormones) to meet the increasing intensity of birth. But that doesn't mean birth is ever sensation free. The tools we incorporate throughout our labour, and supported by our Mother Moon Birth Kits, are designed to optimise these endorphins and embrace the work of labour. They are effective and amazing tools, but they are not designed to negate all sensation. You NEED to feel birth in order to gain the full benefit of that transformation. Feeling nervous about stepping into the journey? Join a Mother Moon class or check out the amazing techniques in our Birth Kit tutorials to help you prepare for this transition. You have everything you need to birth your baby in your power. We are here to help you trust yourself throughout.

Policies are just provider preferences. Remember that your care providers are there to guide, assist and support you. But the final decisions are always yours to make. Your caregiver (and their governing body) have their own preferences for your birth. That is why it is so important that you communicate what you want for your birth. Your decisions overrule protocol, so make sure you have enough information to make the choices that suit you. ⁠ If you don't know your options, then you will get the default birth experience offered by that unit, which may or may not be what you are expecting or wanting.⁠ ⁠ Hospital policies, and even statewide guidelines, are just that - they are guidelines, they are not law. They are not something that you must comply with. They may not be what is best for YOU (an individual with thoughts, feelings, and unique circumstances) and your baby. ⁠ Sara Wickham writes: "When systems of care are trying to help thousands of women to have babies every year, it is understandable that they need to develop policies based on what might be good access the whole population, but that doesn't necessarily mean that their suggestion will point to the path that is right for you. On the other hand, it might be the perfect path for you, but it doesn't hurt to ask a few questions so you can be sure of that before you agree." You and your baby are not just a number, and so protocols and guidelines that are designed with thousands of people in mind may not work for you on an individual level. Individualised continuity of care is one of the best ways to tailor your care to your needs, and access quality independent education will help you make informed choices throughout your journey.

You can make all the space in your pelvis by adopting different positions during labour BUT if your bladder is full your baby won't be moving down. A full bladder can ✨️ Impact your baby's ability to descend into the pelvis ✨️ Cause increased or abnormal pain ✨️Prevent the uterus from contracting efficiently during birth and during placental delivery ✨️ Cause postpartum haemorrhage ✨️ Cause long-term bladder issues You need to stay hydrated during labour. Just like a workout! Whether these fluids are oral or intravenous, it makes sense that all those fluids have to go somewhere. So make sure your birth partner reminds you every 1 to 2 hours to head to the bathroom. Sitting on the toilet can also help to open your pelvis, encourage baby to descend, and relax your pelvic floor. Win win. It's known as the dilation station 🚽 PS It is totally acceptable to pee in the shower if you're comfortable in there and the thought of moving is its own kind of torture. Do what you gotta do.

Labour TENS is so easy to use. Even a toddler could use it. (And they probably WILL want to help). With the push of a button you are able to set the background sensations you want your machine to provide when you are at rest, and the sensation you want during your surges. You can even set a separate mode for later in labour when your surges will be longer, stronger and more intense. Then sit back and let the machine do its thing. With every surge you just click your easy access BOOST button, once at the start of the surge and once again when it ends. Thanks to the handy lanyard you don't even need to keep a hold of it. Your hands are free for other tasks like holding your acupressure comb, changing positions, holding your support person's hand, or sending endorphins through touch to your belly. We encourage you to familiarise yourself with your Elle TENS 2 before labour begins so you can simply pop the pads on and enjoy the benefits without any mental energy. Who wants to be reading the product leaflet in labour? 🙅🏻‍♀️ Book your hire to start anywhere from 4-5 weeks before your estimated 'due' date to make sure it's set up, packed and ready to go from the very first surges.

How can you make a hospital birth suite feel like home? Why should you? Does it make a difference? Our birthing brains thrive on safe, familiar spaces - like home. Creating a space where you feel comfortable, connected, private and safe is important for supporting your hormones to do their thing! The catecholamines released when we are in an unfamiliar environment, a 'clinical' space, under bright lights with beeping equipment, strange people, new smells..... it all interrupts the normal flow of labour. The good news is you can trick your brain and your body into relaxing in this space. Using conditioning! Set up a birth space in your home with: 🌕 Affirmations 🌕 Your pillow 🌕 Aromatherapy 🌕 A throw rug 🌕 Visualisations 🌕 Music 🌕 A colour theme And practice relaxing and releasing in this space. Listen to Hypnobirthing Australia™️ tracks, read positive birth stories, speak your affirmations aloud, visualise your beautiful birth. Start to associate this space and these things with your beautiful birth. Have your partner massage you and connect your relaxation to this special space. When you transfer to hospital just BRING IT ALL WITH YOU. Have your partner set up the room to look like your safe space at home. Set up the lighting, the affirmations, the aromatherapy. Turn off the bright clinical lights. Turn on the music. Wear your own clothes. Use your own pillow. Put your throw on the bed. Cover the windows. Move the equipment (with help from the midwife) so that the clinical machines are not the centre of your focus. Now that unfamiliar space suddenly seems less strange. You look up and see the same colours from your safe space at home. You breathe deeply and smell your favourite blend, and you relax a little more. Your partner speaks softly to you, using the words you've connected to through your practice. And your brain now brings to mind the imagery of the birth you created. Safe. Secure. Supported. Take charge of your birth space and make it your own. You will FEEL more relaxed, more comfortable, and more able to surrender to the amazing sensations happening within you. #mothermoon #mothermoonhypnobirthing #birthspace #hospitalbirth

So much of your labour occurs in your head. Did you know that your thoughts can impact your surges? Did you know that your feelings will impact your progress? Did you know that feeling tense, feeling observed, feeling pressured, feeling unsafe can hold your baby back... and even increase the likelihood that they will become distressed? Your mindset, your thoughts, and your capacity to surrender in that moment all impact your labouring body. So how can you prepare your brain for birth? 🌕 Hypnobirthing Classes 🌕 Affirmations 🌕 Learn about your body 🌕 Understand your options 🌕 Build a trusting partnership with your care provider (interview, question, and plan with them to ensure they are a good fit for you) 🌕 Plan Plan Plan. And I don't mean an all or nothing birth plan. I mean ideal birth preferences, alternative options, backup plans, and to do lists. If you can cover it in pregnancy it means not having to think about it during birth. 🌕 Set up a calm, positive, beautiful, safe birth space, at home AND in hospital (if you are birthing there). 🌕 Prepare your birth partner with tools and knowledge, so they are able to fully support you. 🌕 Have open and honest conversations about your fears and reservations, with your birth partner and your care provider. Do the work to release these fears before labour, because these are the things that will come up if left unsaid. 🌕 Surround yourself with positive birth messages - talk to Hypnobirthing mamas, read positive birth stories, watch positive birth videos, follow positive birth pages on social media. Fuel your mind with positive births. So many of these tools are incorporated throughout my classes. Hypnobirthing tools, mindset, midwifery knowledge, loving support and guidance, birth partner preparation - it's all inclusive!

Alternating counter pressure during surges with gentle jiggling between surges is a fantastic way to meet the rise and fall of pressure and energy throughout labour. I find a rhythm is particularly helpful in deep labour, with active support during rest periods between surges. This doesn't have to look like lots of interaction or movement, but purposeful rest. Jiggling helps to move any tension out of the muscles, while breathwork helps mum to release and reset before the next surge.

There is a moment in most caesarean births where you find yourself alone. Your partner directed to wait until the anaesthetic is in place, your doula or photographer instructed to wait outside the doors, your midwife quickly preparing the space to meet your baby. And you sit in this room with a beeping monitor, sterile trays, unfamiliar faces, awaiting the final step before you lie down and meet your baby. In Anaesthetic Bay you may feel alone, for a moment. But you are never alone. Your best birth partner is with you, within you. Together you are embarking on this journey, and soon you will meet face to face. Brand new, and yet all too familiar. So, take a few deep breaths. Go into your safe bubble within your mind, and talk to your baby. Surround them with your love and protection as you both step together into the unknown. Whether your caesarean is planned or unplanned, at a gentle pace or hurried, you can take this moment to connect with your why. You are here by the wisdom of your body and baby. This is the birth you choose in this moment. The best birth for you and your baby in the circumstances you face together. A team.

Sometimes the most surprising techniques are the most helpful during a birth! Chunging is a Chinese midwifery technique where a birth attendant (or two, or three, or four) jiggles the woman's muscles vigorously throughout a surge. You might assume this would be really uncomfortable during a surge but for some women this is a VERY welcome release. Have someone try it on you, and see how it's impossible to tense up your pelvic floor and leg muscles when they are being jiggled. It's genius! Some women prefer deep massage, light touch massage, acupressure or hip squeezes. And some benefit greatly from this vibrational energy that releases muscle tension, allowing labour to progress and baby to move down. In my practice I have used this technique with great results, helping women to avoid an unwanted and unnecessary caesarean or instrumental birth. Every Mother Moon Birth Kit includes printed and video tutorials on techniques like this that you can use for your birth!

What does it LOOK LIKE to be an Active Participant in Labor/Birth (vs Passive Bystander)?  The Birth Partner: The importance of this Role,… Nowadays, the presence of a Birth Partner(s) during the childbirth process is regarded as a very important factor that can contribute to lower rate of the C-section, better success of physiological birth/delivery and an overall higher satisfaction in the childbirth experience. The Birth Partner can 'make' or 'break' a Birth. 💫 • • • Join my upcoming Birth Works class (for parents or for birth workers) to learn how to be the best birth partner you can possibly be!

CLIENT LOVE 🥰 Did you know my classes aren't just for first time parents? The feedback I get from second, third and even fourth time mamas is that they wish they had this information and these skills for their first birth/s! I consistently get birth stories that show the stark contrast that this preparation makes for both mums and birth partners. Although I am a huge believe in "your first birth is not a test run" and that this preparation is vital for first time birthers, it is also true that your first birth does not need to determine your future births. You deserve to have an empowering, transformative, positive experience EVERY time. If you're looking for a better birth experience, or more tools to take into your next labour, check out my upcoming Hypnobirthing and Birth Works courses.

Once you decided to get in the birth pool did it suddenly feel like you needed it filled 10 minutes ago? Preparation can be key here, but realistically nothing can make the pool fill any faster once it's all set up. So having a few strategies that are within your control can make all the difference when it comes to staying in the zone until you can sink into the water. 🎇 Affirmations like "I welcome each surge. Each one brings me closer to my baby" ✨ Hold onto your Mother Moon birth comb, squeezing firmly throughout each surge 🎇 Slow surge breaths with facial release or vocalisation on your exhale. Horse breath can be helpful to keep your jaw relaxed as the intensity builds.

Internal Dialogue Many mamas, myself (in my first birth) included, think "going to the stars" in labourland must equate to a dreamlike state where thoughts feel fuzzy and you leave your conscious mind. But that isn't the case. Labourland is where you access your beta-brainwaves like day dreaming, or the place between falling asleep and being awake. Like meditating. It is a place where thoughts come and go, where time is irrelevant, and where intuition thrives. But it is not a place where you feel out of control of your thoughts. Inner dialogue feels very logical. Inner dialogue can be very clear. It may be with the gift of hindsight after your birth that you realise your processing of information was perhaps not as logical as you thought. Which is why birth preferences are so important as a communication tool. What was going through your mind as you neared birth? Did you feel out of this world or really present with your thoughts? #hypnobirthingaustralia #hypnobirthing #HypnobirthingIpswich #hypnobirthingbrisbane #hypnobirthingmidwife #endorsedmidwifelogan #privatemidwifeipswich #privatemidwifelogan #privatemidwifebrisbane #brisbanebirthphotographer #brisbanedoula #calmbirthbrisbane #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoonbirthkits #waterbirth #labourland #positivebirth #positivemindset #Repost @koralainephotography • • • • • • 🤍

🎃☠🐈‍⬛🦇🕸🎃 THE HORROR

REALITY CHECK In my classes, we embark on a mission to dismantle the myths and misconceptions surrounding the true nature of labour and birth. Hollywood's dramatised and traumatisons versions? To say its not entirely accurate would be an understatement. At the start of our classes, it's common for parents to have fears about labour and birth, many of which stem from the only frame of reference available to them. Scary stories, 'well intended' warnings, and Hollywood drama form the inner vision of what birth can and should look like. After our first class you'll walk away with a new perspective - a glimpse into the real potential of birth. Powerful, supported, calm, respected, informed, connected. All of these things are not just possible, but your Birth Rite. At Mother Moon we want you to know that your experience can surpass everything Hollywood has offered you. We want you to fully understand the transformation birth will offer you, and empower you with the knowledge, tools and support to have the most incredible experience of your life.

Ever thought of using a comb as a pain relief tool during labour? I've witnessed countless women find immense comfort through this simple technique, myself included! This is our most popular product, and for good reason! While the exact reasons for its effectiveness aren't entirely clear, there are some pain theories that support its use: 🌙 The comb's teeth stimulate acupressure points in the hand (L.I 4 especially), triggering an endorphin release. 🌙 It acts as a distraction, drawing focus on the comb and away from labour sensations. 🌙 The 'gate theory' suggests that our brain is unable to process two sensations simultaneously. The pressure from the comb (which you are in control of) competes with the surge's intensity, blocking the painful stimuli. Even better, there are no negative side effects so if you do not like it you can simply put it down, and if you DO like it you can use it for as long as you want without risk to yourself or baby. You can purchase your Mother Moon Labour Comb on its own or as a part of a Birth Kit. It is the perfect companion on land, in water, at home and in hospital, for only $25! #BirthWisdom #NaturalComfort #LaborMagic #EmpoweredBirth #PositiveBirth #BirthPreparationJourney #MotherMoonBirthKits #mothermoonhypnobirthing #hypnobirthing #labourcomb #birthcomb #labourpainrelief

Navigating a Fast Labour: Your Calm, Informed Pathway 🌟 Have you ever wondered what to do if labour progresses at a pace you didn't expect? 🤷‍♀️ It can happen to both seasoned mamas and first-timers, making preparation essential! In my courses I like to prepare families for the marathon birth, and also for the fast birth ... because you want to be prepared for ANY turn your birthing journey takes. Dive into my Mother Moon Blog for remarkable "Born Before Arrival" birth stories, both with mamas planning for hospital birth and home birth. My own second birth "The Birth of Renly" is featured on there, where our midwives and photographer missed the birth by 12 minutes! ✨ Here's your guide to a quick labour: Stay Calm: Your body and baby are in perfect sync. Keep that inner calm, and create the environment to support your birthing brain and body. Warm, quiet, calm, safe. Dial for Help: If your plan was the hospital, call 000 (Australia), or keep your Midwives on speed dial for home births. Put them on speakerphone; they'll guide you through every step. Prepare Essentials: Have towels and blankets at the ready. It's wise to stash a few in the car, just in case. Options & Decisions: Remember, you have choices even in the fast lane. Apply your B.R.A.I.N.S acronym for decision-making with the paramedics, emergency department, or whoever happens across your birth space. It is helpful to have a birth partner who understands your birth preferences and how to protect them in any situation. ✋🛑 Trust the Process: No need for fancy maneuvers. This is physiology at its best. Baby knows precisely when and how to make their entrance. Receive your baby and place them skin to skin. No need to do anything with the cord or try to "deliver" the placenta. ✨ Have You Considered This Scenario? It's a path worth exploring as a part of your preparation. Do you have a plan? Has this been your birthing journey?

Reclaiming midwifery wisdom using a deeper understanding of physiology, hormones, and biomechanics WITH direct connection to the emotional, spiritual, relational self. Neither is without the other. Both are essential for birth. Our Birth Kits are designed with both physical and emotional space in mind. Having a toolkit is not *just* about pain relief for labour. It is about having the resources to go deeper, work with your body and baby, and reclaim the Rite of Passage that is your birthright.

Labour has started. You're so excited! You're going to meet your baby soon. But when? Noone knows. It could be a sprint or it could be a marathon. You have to be prepared for both. Our top tip is to take it one surge at a time. Your body and baby will let you know when you need to change what you are doing. You have an abundant toolkit to draw from, so start with one technique and add to it as the intensity changes or if it no longer feels right for you. When surges begin REST is key. If it's night time, try to sleep as much as you can. If it is during the day rest is still vital, but you could watch Netflix or listen to an audio book, or bake a birthday cake. Breathwork is the #1 skill throughout all of labour. Connect with your breathing as soon as surges begin. Even before they require your focus. Use movement, upright passive positions, warmth, water, TENS, and touch throughout your labour. You can use multiple techniques during surges (except water and TENS never mix!). Be flexible about what works for you. It's uncommon to pick one tool and use it from the first surge to the last. Most women will find tools will work for a while and then they need to change to another, or add another in order to meet the intensity as labour progresses. Do what feels right for you at the time! 📃 What was your favourite early labour tool? Let us know in the comments! Mine was the shower, or the TENS machine when I wasn't in the water. #earlylabour #labour #labourbag #labourtoolkit #labourpainrelief #tenshire #tenshirebrisbane #tenshireipswich #hypnobirthingaustralia #tenshireaustralia #labourcomb #acupressurecomb #birthcomb #affirmationsforbirth #waterbirth #firstbaby #newmum #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoonbirthkits #earlylabourtip #naturalbirth

Did you know each of our Birth Kits come with video tutorials and cheat sheets for your Rebozo and Acupressure techniques? Even if you are familiar with how to use the products this can be super helpful for birth partners in knowing WHEN to apply the technique during birth so you don't have to ask for it or try to assess what may be helpful in your situation. If you want more hands on support to perfect these techniques, join us face to face in one of our upcoming Birth Classes. Check out @mothermoon_hypnobirthing for details! And if your partner is already a masterclass in supportive skills you also have the option to purchase your favourite pieces individually.

Elevate Your Birthing Experience with the Elle TENS 2! 🌟 Ever wondered what sets a labour TENS machine apart from the standard ones you can get at Aldi? It's all in that magical BOOST button!

You can simply increase or decrease the boost and the background sensations to suit your needs with the click of a button. And you can preset a setting for early labour and another for when things intensify! The Elle TENS 2 doesn't stop at the BOOST button.

Keyrings, daddy and me books, and socks are fantastic. But for the father-to-be celebrating this year, you could always give the gift of a transformative, empowering, ecstatic birth experience. He may roll his eyes initially... but hear me out. He will get so much more out of classes with me than he ever could have imagined. People often mistakenly believe birth classes are for pregnant mothers to prepare for birth - and ONLY for the Birthing mother. But that isn't true! In fact I often find it is the birth partners that make such a monumental transformation throughout their course. So much so that I frequently have partners say "let's do a homebirth", "I had no idea about any of this and I would never have been able to show up the way I can now" and "I cannot wait to be there for this [birth]". "It was so good building a trust in the birthing process that I honestly had not thought much about before as a guy. I would highly recommend this program to any partners wanting to be active support for their birth." Educated, empowered, prepared birth partners get to experience the full emotional, hormonal, spiritual transformation of birth. They can step into birth feeling confident, calm, and connected. What a beautiful gift, to begin your parenthood journey in such a beautiful way.

✨ NEW BIRTH STORY ON THE BLOG ✨ "My husband and I did the hypnobirthing course with Jess. It was so informative and Jess was such an amazing and natural facilitator with a wealth of information. We gained so much handy resources and tips especially being first time parents and not knowing what to expect. I was sooo happy to birth the way I planned, we went into labour feeling confident and we can’t thanks Jess enough for offering hypnobirthing course!!"

The dreaded "due date". As the little box on the calendar looms nearer and nearer it can feel like a pressure cooker up in here! Could baby arrive today? Tomorrow? In a week? In 4 weeks? Nobody knows, except maybe for baby. Did you know there are 35 potential "due dates" within the realm of "normal", and of course there is also the potential for baby to be born before term and post term. The 40 weeks due date is an arbitrary measurement used to guide pregnancy care, but baby has only a 3-5% chance of being born on that day spontaneously!

It's unfortunate that sometimes, modern medical practices can lead to misunderstandings and unnecessary interventions. Let's challenge the notion of our bodies being 'inadequate lemons' and instead, celebrate the strength and wisdom they hold, even when we struggle to understand their reasoning. As birthing women, we must trust in the innate power within us and surround ourselves with those who believe in the normality of birth. Patience and understanding physiology holistically often leads to better outcomes for both mother and precious baby. 🤱 Let's connect if you want support through this incredible journey and let nature do her incredible thing. #EmpoweredBirth #TrustYourBody #InaMayGaskin #NaturalBirth #BirthWisdom #BirthJourney #CelebrateStrength #WomenPower #NaturalMotherhood #BirthingExperience #BodyWisdom #NormalBirth #SupportiveCompanionship #EmbraceNature #BirthingBelief #MaternalHealth #BirthCommunity #HolisticBirth #EmpowerMoms #BirthWithoutFear #NurturingBonds #JoyfulBirthing #LovingPregnancy #GentleBirth #BirthChoices #MotherMoonHypnobirthing #Hypnobirthing #MotherMoonBirthKits

Our Birth Comb was not designed by accident or coincidence. The dimensions of our acupressure comb were carefully selected and compared to a number of alternative options to ensure your experience would be the best available. We tried a couple of other birth combs in my last pregnancy and none of them felt like the perfect fit. So we decided to make our own! We wanted a comb that was not too wide to grip comfortably, nor too small to feel sturdy. It had to be long enough to be engage all of the palm points without being so large it felt bulky. The teeth had to be slighty rounded so they wouldn't cause damage to the skin, and close enough together to provide stimulation of the gateway pain relief. It had to be wooden, made from sustainably sourced materials, and be of a quality that will last. We didn't want teeth to break off under pressure, or splinter. And we wanted a beautifully engraved message for you to enjoy. After searching and testing and trialling our options we chose this particular design, and we are SO proud of it. What do you think? One mama did "I was gifted another birth comb but yours just feels more comfortable to hold. I can see it being so good for my upcoming labour!" #birthkit #birthcomb #acupressurecomb #labourcomb #thebirthcomb #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoonbirthkits #homebirth #homebirthaustralia #homebirthqld #homebirthnsw #naturalbirth #calmbirth #positivebirth #hypnobirthingaustralia #hypnobirthing #naturallabpurpainrelief #labourpainrelief #acupressure #birth #midwife #brisbanemidwives #ipswichmidwives

What's in your labour bag? Our gorgeous canvas labour duffel fits SO. MUCH. STUFF. Luckily, because you want one simple spot to grab all of your essentials for your birth. 🌿 Your pillow 🍃 TENS machine, electrodes, wires, batteries and lanyard (kept safe inside our Yes, I Can carry case) 🌿 Labour comb 🍃 Heat pack x 2 🌿 Water Bottle with a straw 🍃 Aromatherapy oil 🌿 Affirmations 🍃 Rebozo 🌿 Emesis bag 🍃 Large towel 🌿 Snacks 🍃 Tea and Honey 🌿 Wallet and ID 🍃 Birth preferences and cheat sheets 🌿 Air pods or Earphones 🍃 Phone The only thing this baby doesn't fit is your birth ball! I recommend backing a small suitcase with baby's clothes and essentials, and your postnatal supplies. Your partner can either bring this with you or grab it from the car after baby has been born (they won't need their outfits immediately). Make sure you pack your brush, soap, toothbrush and toothpaste in here because that first shower after birth is 🤌 Add a Mother Moon Labour Bag to your purchase today and get a discount when bundled with a Birth Kit!

OXYTOCIN The hormone of LOVE. Oxytocin loves love. It loves dark, private, familiar spaces. It loves hugs and kisses. It loves deep eye contact with a safe, trusted person. It loves endorphins. It loves connected touch. It loves when you feel safe, secure, unobserved, and unrushed. Oxytocin responds to the feedback in your body and from your environment. It will build as baby applies more pressure to your cervix. It will reduce if you feel threatened or exposed. It will be released in pulses that respond to your position, baby's position, the lights in the room, the people around you, your stress levels, your energy levels. It's so deeply connected within you. It is you. How will you help make your oxytocin pathways optimal in labour? Plan to feel LOVED 😍 #tenshire #labourtenshire #labourtens #elletens #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoonbirthkits #birthkit #brisbanetenshire #goldcoasttenshire #logantenshire #ipswichtenshire #australianbirthstories #australiantenshire #tenshireaus #blissbirth #blissfulbirth #oxytocin #labourcomb #labourhormone #birth #naturalbirth #homebirth #hospitalbirth #hospitalbag #homebirthqld #homebirthaustralia #brisbanemidwives #ipswichmidwives #brisbanedoula #brisbanebirthphotographer 📸@mothermoon_hypnobirthing

Visualise the serene birth you desire. Visualisation is a powerful tool in hypnobirthing. Close your eyes, create a mental image of your ideal birth environment, and immerse yourself in the details. Picture the warmth, gentle lighting, soothing sounds, and the joy of holding your baby in your arms. What comes to mind when you allow your subconscious to create this image for you? Who is with you in this perfect moment? Where are you? How do you want to feel as you hold your baby for the very first time? As you embrace this visualisation practice, your mind and body align, until on your birthing day it feels like you've already done it before.

I cannot believe this birth was 4 years ago. The birth of my first child. The birth myself as a mother. There have been so many firsts since this moment. So many moments that have felt immensely challenging. Moments I thought I couldn't do it. And then, of course, I did. This is the birth that completely changed the trajectory of my life. This child is the WHY behind Mother Moon. They are woven throughout every aspect of this work we are called to do. There have been so many lessons learnt that have made me a better person, and even more things to unlearn to make room for that growth. And we have chosen to share that journey with all of you. Through our classes, through our socials, through our products. Know that there is the heart of a family behind everything we do here at Mother Moon.

Birth is not inherently traumatising. We aren't born with a fear of the intensity of birth. Children at birth see the strength and power without being engulfed in it. They have an innate trust that you can and will just do it. And when they see you through to the other side they witness your achievement with an awe inspired "You did it mama" What a precious gift to offer the next generation. 💞 Professional images by @olivejuicelifestyle of @mothermoon_hypnobirthing #siblingsatbirth #childrenatbirth #familycentredbirth #homebirth #labourathome #calmbirth #hypnobirthingaustralia #hypnobirthing #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoon #mothermoonbirthkits #waterbirth #earlylabour

Did you know that when a baby is born, they possess an innate ability to find their mother's breast all on their own? It's like a beautiful dance between mother and baby, an instinctive connection that holds numerous benefits for both. 🌟✨ Immediate and continuous skin to skin, with baby placed tummy on your tummy, allows your baby to search for the breast using instinctive movements. The nuzzling helps to boost oxytocin, which is added to by the gentle (sometimes not so gentle) kicks as baby moves their way up toward to nipple. Thise helps to keep the uterus contracted after birth. Mamas temperature adjusts automatically to support baby in maintaining a normal temperature, with her nipple radiating heat an additional degree warmer than the rest of the body. This helps baby to find the breast through touch. The Montgomery Tubercles secrete a substance that smells like amniotic fluid, and colostrum smells like sweet milky goodness so baby can follow their nose to their first feed. Babies don't need to be forced to the breast in a cradle hold, breast tissue sandwiched into their mouth in order to feed. Undisturbed birth, undisturbed bonding, undisturbed skin to skin naturally supports baby led feeding. Have you experienced the Breast Crawl in action?

CAPTION THIS 🤍 • • • • 🌌 That new baby smell 🌌 Triggering dopamine receptors, boosting oxytocin, encouraging prolactin.... Do yourself a favour and breathe in the smell of your newborn baby. And enjoy that first day together, skin to skin, because despite being exhausted (and only a few hours earlier wishing you could just SLEEP....) you will find yourself unable to close your eyes. You will never be as alert as you are after an unmedicated vaginal birth. Noradrenalin wakes up the brain and is 10 times higher at birth than any other point in your life (Lagercrantz & Bistoletti 1977). The hours after birth are of vital importance for bonding. As such, we must take care to maintain the birth environment in order to allow mother and child to transition together; 🌕 Quiet 🌕 Dark 🌕 Private 🌕 Warm 🌕 Supported, loved, respected 📷 @olivejuicelifestyle #mothermoonhypnobirthing #mothermoon #hypnobirthing #hypnobirthingaustralia #positivebirthmovement #positivebirthprogram #homebirth #undisturbedbirth #skintoskin #dopamine #newbaby #newbabysmell #physiologicalbirth #waterbirth #newbornbaby #newborn #fourthtrimester #brisbanedoula #hypnobirthingipswich #hypnobirthingbrisbane #hypnobirthinginternational #birthbecomesher #brisbanebirthphotographer #brisbanemums #brisbanehypnobirthing #brisbanebirthclass

#Repost @mothermoon_hypnobirthing with @use.repost ・・・ Beautiful image from @bendbirthphotographer Birth will test you. It will ask for your patience, your strength, your trust, your surrender. These themes often tend to arise for each of us in different ways. But they almost always come to the surface. If you're waiting for your baby to choose their birthing day. And you're still waiting. And all the guesses have gone out the window. And the day you just felt you might give birth (because of whatever signs from the universe) has passed. And you start to think maybe you won't go into labour. Patience. Trust. Surrender. Stay strong. If you're sitting on your bathroom floor. You surely cannot ride another wave. You plead with your body for a break from the surges. You just want to hold your baby now. You've done enough work, thankyou. Patience. Trust. Surrender. Stay strong. Whatever the obstacle. Wherever the journey takes you. You can do it. You are doing it. This transformation will not ask more of you than you are capable of. Patience. Trust. Surrender. Stay strong. And this is why preparation, doing the work, getting informed, and being held is so important. This is why what I do is so important. You will be challenged. Will you be prepared? #Repost @bendbirthphotographer • • • • • • Full Moon Birth and Family Wellness Center Hour 25 From Veronica’s Birth Santa Cruz, Calif — July 2020 #hypnobirthingaustralia #hypnobirthing #mothermoon #mothermoonhypnobirthing #birth #labour #brisbanehypnobirthing #brisbanemidwives #brisbanebirthphotographer #brisbanebayside #ipswichhypnobirthing #ipswichmidwives #brisbanedoula #brisbanemums #ipswichmums #birthclasses #calmbirth #positivebirth #hypnobirthinglogan

INTRODUCING Jess & Josh, the family behind Mother Moon. Together we have created two incredible tiny humans, and from their births have come our newest baby - our Mother Moon Birth Kits. Our kits include our must haves from our birthing experiences, created with Jess's extensive midwifery experience behind them. Before babies we enjoyed hiking and travelling. We got engaged on the #cooloolagreatwalk and spent our honeymoon hiking the Mont Blanc 8 day trek and the Cinque Terre seaside. Since then our adventures have been a little closer to home but there is a lot of beauty to be found in Easter Australia too! We love art, music, and trying new hobbies. So we often have multiple almost finished projects on our kitchen table. Currently there is a macrame rainbow, a needle felting hedgehog, and a Harry potter lego castle underway. We live in New Beith on 3/4 of an acre. Jess's parents live in a granny flat attached to our home, and her brother, sister in law and niece (who is the same age as our youngest) lives in the front half of our house. It's pretty awesome living in a small village like this and we love that the tiny humans get to grow up together with a huge garden and room to roam. We will be home schooling both of our boys, and would love to get a motorhome to travel around Australia once we have finished up with all our homebirths. Jess is pretty convinced there's a couple more to do yet ;) Outside of Mother Moon Birth Kits Jess teaches birth classes and attachment parenting classes @mothermoon_hypnobirthing, and Josh works in Disability Support. But the best job in the world is being parents to the two incredible boys who inspired this business. So that's us! Thanks for joining us in the space.

Every birth has that moment. The one where you realise no one can do this for you. This is all you. The moment you realise you need to surrender; You can either ask someone to come and save you or you can get in and Get. It. Done. You have the strength. To feel the challenge and still power through. You have the wisdom. To trust your body and your baby. You have the courage. To feel the fear and do it anyway. This is YOUR birth.
