In Utero Resonance – A Spiritual View of the Mother and Baby Dance
This post is by Maha.
Lately, I have been thinking a lot about the real, raw and wildly powerful sensory experience that I delved into when my babies were in utero. “Utero Resonance” – the mother/baby resonance that is in general, often neglected by mainstream society when we address the pregnancy/birth experience. Yet in my own journey this resonance gave me the basis of connection with my babies that informed and influenced my birth experience. […]

Science of Mother and Baby
This post is by Maha.
“Science mother baby”, When it comes to pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and parenting I see that there has been a huge lean toward proving things scientifically and via evidence based knowledge. I, like many, am very interested in how science and evidence configures in our understanding of the birth and beyond field. It is valuable to have these pillars to support our deeper understanding if we are looking through the lens […]

Hijacking the birth limelight from mother and baby.
This post is by Maha.
Hijacking birth limelight This is a very real and at times challenging ideology to present to birth professionals, OB’s, Dr’s, educators and teachers because of the hidden nature of their own deep birth wounding that can play in the shadows of their psyche. The way I see childbirth education is that it must take the best aspects of the essence and feel of traditional women’s wisdom and knowing that used […]
