Lindsey & Esme
“Exciting news to share, our little girl Esmé Rosa Lindsey was born on the 17th December weighing 6lbs 13oz. Inkeeping with her sisters, Esmé arrived 2.5 weeks early so was a lovely early Christmas present and we have been able to hibernate as a little family over the Christmas holidays which has been wonderful
I wanted to say a huge thank you for your teachings in class as it massively helped me to feel more in control during labour this time round. Having felt quite nervous about the birth even though it was my third child, I used a lot of your insight to help me manage the contractions at home. Getting in to a cosy, dark space, every time I felt a surge, I repeated different words you had said - empowered, soft, manageable, normal and productive to name a few. This helped my mind to really focus on what needed to be done & I used the birth breath and the little candle at the end of my yoga mat visualisation to push the pain away. As a result, my waters suddenly broke whilst still at home after 6hrs of strong contractions. After making a speedy dash to the hospital, Esmé was born 40mins after we arrived. She is a little poppet and her sisters are showering her with lots of cuddles! I truly feel that your classes helped put me in a really strong mindset and I am very grateful
Look forward to introducing you for cuddles at postnatal yoga soon. Thanks again.
