Using Hygge in Homebirth: for Mothers and Midwives
Hygge is defined as the practice of creating cosy and congenial environments that promote emotional wellbeing - sound familiar?
Birth environments should be cosy, congenial and promote emotional well being. So why not apply the elements of Hygge to birth, specifically homebirth.
Here's a little infographic I put together on how this could be achieved by both mothers and midwives.
Infographic for this post can now be found at http://sagefeminist.blogspot.co.uk/p/infographics-from-blogposts.html
What do you think? Could these elements help create a better birth environment or even make us remember elements which can promote natural physiology of labour.

We’re expecting our third little one in early February in Canada! Our home is very “hygge” you could say - we like to keep things calm and cozy ... so hopefully our planned homebirth for this little one will follow suit. Is there anything you can suggest to help our 5 year old Autistic son transition to big brother? He will be the middle child. Thanks
