How to own your birth!!!

•Remind yourself that this is your birthing space! Take ownership of your space to stay grounded and avoid the feeling of needing to “tiptoe” around!

​

•Keep the door closed- this will give you a greater sense of privacy and safety!  It can be comforting knowing that your partner or doula is there keeping an eye out and providing privacy!

​

•Fill the room with sounds you love and encouraging affirmations!!

​

•Mess with the lights! Make the environment yours!

​

•Be where you want to be, whether that’s in the shower, in bed, walking the halls...it’s all you momma!!

​

•Ensure your birth plan is communicated well to all staff involved!
