Trying to stay mobile and active in labour is really important. Firstly, because gravity helps your baby move down the birth canal effectively. Secondly, because research shows that instrumental births and caesarean sections are more likely to happen if you give birth in semi-recumbent or, partly reclined positions.

It's so important to educate yourself, and understand your rights as you're looked after during your pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond. Whether it's a routine check or a major procedure, YOU decide what happens to your body. 💪💜
In our latest blog, we dive into the importance of informed consent and how healthcare providers must give you clear, unbiased information so you can make the best decisions for yourself and your baby. 📋✨
Key points to remember:
🤝 Your choice matters! Always ask questions and ensure you understand the options.
🚨 You can withdraw consent at any time. It's YOUR body, YOUR baby, YOUR decision.
💕 Even your birth partner can’t make decisions for you, but they can help advocate for your preferences.
👶Post-birth, both parents may share in decisions for your baby, but until then, it’s the pregnant person's choice.
Check out the full post and empower yourself with knowledge. 🔗 [Link in bio]
