Helen & Zoe

“Please tell the lovely ladies at the yoga class that your lessons gave me a mental and a physical strategy with which to face the labour and birth, making me feel prepared and confident even though I had never done it before.
I found yoga breathing and my mantra most useful during the pushing phase, I really felt these techniques helped me get control of a tricky situation (I’ll say it again - 10.5 lbs) and I found the birth empowering in the end. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done but also the most worthwhile. I told myself my body was made to have this baby, and that I remained calm and determined throughout - it helped with each push, and that final phase lasted just 40 mins after a long labour.
