From Blogs to Journal: A New Chapter

This Journal entry is available in two ways: you can read it below, or press play to hear me sharing it in my own voice.

For a while, this page has been home to my blogs.
They’re still here, if you want to scroll back, you’ll find lots of reflections and resources I’ve written along the way.

But from today, I’m doing things differently.

Blogging never really felt like me.
I’m not about polished articles or step-by-step guides.
I’m about raw feelings, messy musings, late-night thoughts, and honest reflections on pregnancy, birth, and motherhood, right here in Grimsby and Cleethorpes.

So, welcome to The Mama Spring Journal.

It’s part of The Mama Spring – my space for helping women feel calm, capable, and completely in control through pregnancy, birth, and motherhood.
This Journal is where those ideas come to life. It’s not about information; it’s about transformation.

This is where you’ll find the nitty-gritty: the moments that made me laugh, cry, whisper “I can’t do this”, as well as the lessons, tools, and truths I’ve picked up along the way.

I’ll be sharing in lots of ways: sometimes in writing, sometimes as voice notes, sometimes even little video diaries — and sometimes a mix of them all.
However it comes, it will always be real.

What You’ll Find Here

You’ll notice two types of Journal entries:

Reflections — the honest, personal pieces that tell the story behind The Mama Spring.
Guides — the evidence-based, practical pieces that help you prepare and feel empowered — in birth, in motherhood, and beyond.

New Here? Start with One of These

If you’re wondering where to begin, here are a few of my most-loved entries:

• The Class I Needed as a New Mum (So I Created It)
• Pregnant After Loss: Holding Hope
• What Hypnobirthing Really Is (Grimsby Edition)

You can also scroll back through the older posts, they’re part of the journey that brought me here.

My Promise

This space will always be honest, heartfelt, and rooted in calm confidence.
I’ll never tell you what to do, only remind you that you already know how to listen to yourself.

This isn’t just my Journal; it’s a space we get to walk through together.
Read, listen, nod along, and maybe even share a piece with a friend who needs it too.

So, grab a cup of something warm. Breathe. Take what you need from each entry, and know that you’re never alone in this journey.

Welcome to The Mama Spring Journal — I’m so glad you’re here.
