A few Black moms have expressed to me that they have anxiety about labor & birthing. Some due to fear of pain, others due past birthing trauma & others simply due to birthing while Black in hospitals.

Here are a few things I feel will help relieve some of the the intense fear around laboring:

🔺Talk with a trusted friend/support person about birthing anxiety.

🔺Find, write and say birthing affirmations to calm you.

🔺Create rampages (audio recordings) about your ideal birth & listen to them daily.

🔺Write a self care plan to manage anxiety. Put it where you can see it.

🔺Seek therapy/professional support.

Pregnancy affirmations can help to empower and relax Black birthing folks during their pregnancy journey. Listening to pregnancy affirmations daily can help Black birthing folks love and appreciate their pregnant bodies and babies. They can assist in preparing parents as they transition from pregnancy to early birth.

BRAIN is a simple acronym that you can use to help you make informed choices (decisions) about your healthcare during conception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum + parenting. It provides a logical approach in weighing in on the many choices you face during uncertain times in your journey.

When a health provider suggestions something, use your BRAIN:

Ask about the BENEFITS.

What are the RISKS?

Are there ALTERNATIVES? If so, what are they?

Trust your INTUITION. What is your body and guy saying about this suggestion?

What would happen if you do NOTHING?

"For us, being with women who look at us as their sisters, aunts, cousins, and/or mothers reinforces a care provider relationship that cannot be duplicated with any cultural sensitivity training." --Claudia Book, CPM & ancestor
