Rebecca’s Pregnancy Story

Priscilla (Pri) was with me for both my first and second births and she truly played a pivotal role in creating an extremely positive experience on both occasions.

For my most recent birth in Dubai, Pri worked with me throughout my pregnancy especially from 36 weeks onward using techniques from the gentle birth method to prepare my body and baby’s positioning for the optimal birth. By using bodywork, visualisation, special oils and homoeopathic remedies, as well as offering a kind ear to speak to and express any uncertainties and fears, she helped me to avoid being induced and made me feel incredibly prepared and positive about the birth outcome that I wanted. I can say with confidence that the work we did to get the baby in the optimal position and prepare my body for the physicality of labour made my birth as smooth and short as it was. During the birth itself, Pri was an encouraging and grounding presence by my side, helping me to get through the incredible feat of labour and delivery without medication and with positivity and empowerment. She was able to seamlessly work with the Doctors and midwives in the hospital setting while also helping me to advocate for myself and have the birth environment that I wanted. I couldn’t have asked for a better birth experience or anyone better by my side to help me through. Pri and the Gentle Birth Method bring age-old wisdom and humanity back to birthing which can be difficult to access in the sometimes cold and overly medicalised birth environments of today. I am extremely grateful to Pri and GBM, and very proud of my story.
