Why Does it Matter If Your Birth is Empowering?
Empowering moms in pregnancy and birth is my passion and it’s because those feelings of empowerment last MUCH longer than during birth.
Knowing that you have the capability to research, make your own decisions, stand up for yourself, trust your body, and rely on your intuition are qualities you need throughout your motherhood journey.
Feeling empowered to birth your baby is truly just the beginning. That feeling holds through those hard postpartum moments, learning to breastfeed, standing up for yourself and your family, deciding what kind of parent you want to be, and making decisions that will bless your family.
Of course you can still be an empowered mom if you had a less than positive birth experience, but trust me- if you are empowered throughout pregnancy and birth, that’s a feeling that will impact you positively long term.
