Ready for some juicy support?
Hey mama!
I know thinking about birth can bring up a lot of emotions -
excitement
anxiety
confusion…
over all the choices you have - birth center, home birth, or hospital
overwhelm
about knowing how to best prepare your body for birth
You want to:
✓ Have a beautiful, empowering birth experience that you’ve always envisioned as you bring your precious little baby into the world
✓ Know ALL your options when it comes to choosing what interventions you want to say yes or no to
✓ Have a team that supports you and your values for birth without fear-mongering
✓ Fully trust that your body was MADE for this and go into your birth with confidence
✓ Feel fully prepared physically and mentally to birth your baby
But I know it can be so overwhelming when you’re already struggling to choose what to even put on your baby registry!
Good news…
If you want to feel prepared and confident for birth, you are in the right place!
You may have been led by doctors, other moms, and even pop culture to believe that birth is something scary, and that maybe you don’t have what it takes to do this…
The truth is… that your body was made for this -
and whether you choose to give birth in a hospital or at home, get an epidural or go all natural, you already have all the resources WITHIN you to thrive in your birth.
But you may need some support accessing that juicy, feminine power within you to conceive, grow, birth, and nurture your baby -
and that’s where I come in!
Hi! I’m Dr. Jackie Roelofs!
A pelvic floor physical therapist and pregnancy and postpartum coach based in New Orleans.
I firmly believe that you don’t have to suffer through low back pain or just “deal with” leaking until baby comes, and you deserve to have support for ALL the aspects of this very special season of bringing a baby into the world.
Whether this is your first baby or you are a seasoned mom,
You deserve support during your pregnancy and postpartum journey so you can understand your anatomy and physiology, know how to overcome fear and anxiety surrounding birth, and trust that your body has got this!
If you’re pregnant for the first time or the 4th time, you may have internalized the belief our society feeds us that our bodies don’t know how to birth, and that has led to a lot of fear, rather than confidence in your feminine power to birth.
But you deserve to come into birth feeling confident and prepared, so you can have an empowered birth and an embodied, gentle postpartum recovery.
With my trauma-informed, full-body approach to the pelvic floor in pregnancy and birth, you can move from an empowered pregnancy into an intuitive birth and embodied postpartum, rocking those newborn days with grace, tapping into your juicy mom intuition, and feeling clear on your plan for birth recovery.
My birth preparation services are perfect for you if:
You are a first time mom who wants to know ALL your options for birth and how to have and empowering birth experience (with or without pain meds)
You had a C-Section before and want to have an all-natural VBAC - but know you need to prep mentally and physically.
You have had pelvic floor issues in the past, and want to make sure you know how to ride out contractions without clenching
You want to learn how to work WITH your body to push your baby out, and possibly even prevent tearing, prolapse, you know, all the spooky things you hear other moms talking about.
You want to learn how to ease back into movement gently postpartum so you can set yourself up for success and pain-free, symptom-free return to all the activities you love.
If you’re pregnant for the first time or the 4th time, you may have internalized the belief our society feeds us that our bodies don’t know how to birth, and that has led to a lot of fear, rather than confidence in your feminine power to birth.
But you deserve to come into birth feeling confident and prepared, so you can have an empowered birth and an embodied, gentle postpartum recovery.
With my trauma-informed, full-body approach to the pelvic floor in pregnancy and birth, you can move from an empowered pregnancy into an intuitive birth and embodied postpartum, rocking those newborn days with grace, tapping into your juicy mom intuition, and feeling clear on your plan for birth recovery.
