fruits of our labour

{cervix dilation} fruits of our labour by Jenna Wiebe

We all focus on ‘how many centimetres the cervix is dilated’ but we can never tell how long the labour will be.

Our focus should be on forgetting the time, forgetting the centimetres and focusing on our positive visualisations {for instance, I was thinking about the Kerelan warmth of the backwaters where I had the sun shining down onto my skin, where the sound of the water was so calming}

Labour is designed for us all, we can do this! It is incredible how our bodies are to be able to grow little babaru{s} {or more!} and birth them.

Keeping calm + positive + hydrated + staying mobile + changing position = encourages cervical dilation.
