I struggled to find birth preparation content that felt empowering, peaceful, and positive - so I wrote and recorded my own affirmations. They became exactly what I needed. My midwife and doula both loved them, and more importantly, they brought me tremendous comfort leading up to and during my birth. These affirmations are for whenever you need to reconnect with your strength during pregnancy - whether that's early on when processing all of the big emotions, during any discomforts, dealing with any fears that come up, on your way to the hospital, or in the moment of labor itself. Listen anytime doubt creeps in and you need to remember: your body knows how to do this. No matter what kind of birth you're planning - home, hospital, medicated, unmedicated - these words are for you. You are a pillar of strength, naturally intuitive, and a divine expression of femininity. You are a mom. You've got this.

Congratulations,

Mama.

You've got this.

I'll begin the birthing affirmations and give you plenty of time to repeat them back to yourself.

Before we begin,

Let's notice the breath for a moment.

Picture each breath you take connecting you to your baby and feeding you both vital oxygen.

As you breathe out,

Feel your whole body settling back inwards towards your baby.

Simply be in awe of the miracle of your breath.

Easy breath in,

Easy breath out.

If your mind wanders during the affirmations,

Use your breath as a place to come home to,

To anchor to.

You can also reconnect to my voice,

But let go of any expectations of yourself or your experience.

Allow your experience to naturally unfold.

I trust the process.

I have faith in the universe.

I am at peace.

Everything is okay.

I am strong,

Healthy,

And capable.

My past injuries do not define me or my ability to birth.

I follow in the footsteps of the strong woman before me.

I surrender.

I let go of all things I cannot control.

I release into the surges.

I go limp as I feel the power source of my body helping move my baby along.

My body knows what to do.

My baby is safe and so am I.

My baby will instinctively contribute to her birth.

Each surge I experience brings me closer to my baby.

Birthing my baby brings me home to my body and empowers me regardless of the outcome.

I welcome fluidity into my birth of my baby.

Nothing lasts forever.

I believe in myself,

My body,

And the process.

No matter what happens,

I am okay.

I call upon help,

Protection,

And guidance.

Each surge connects me to every woman that has come before me.

Feel their strength.

Feel their support.

Feel their love.

I can do this.

I breathe into the sensation.

My exhale releases my body.

I trust that birth is a deep and unknown mystery.

I know what to do even when I don't know what to do.

My body may surprise me.

I trust myself and others.

I am open to each moment.

Birth may have moments of effort and intensity,

But I can do it.

What would it look like to trust myself?

What would it look like to find ease in the sensations?

What would it look like to trust the process?

What would it look like to trust my body?

What would it look like to feel empowered?

What would it look like to be okay surrendering?

What would it look like to allow the process to unfold naturally?

What would it look like to feel strong even during the challenging moments?

What would it look like to find softness in my body?

I am enough.

I am worthy.

Everything is okay.

Best wishes to you,

Mama.

You've got this.

You are enough.

You are a pillar of strength.

You are naturally intuitive.

You are a divine expression of femininity.

You are a mom.
