One of the things that women in my pregnancy yoga and Active Birth classes all love is the affirmations that we do in class to help build a strong trust that their bodies were born to have babies successfully.
Here are some of my favourites:
My baby fits my pelvis perfectly
My baby knows when to be born
My body is softening and opening
My body knows how to give birth
My baby is moving down smoothly and easily
My baby knows how to be born
I can do this
I am enjoying this
I follow my breathing
I soften all my muscles and relax
I let go
Giving birth is natural and safe
