Becoming a first time mum, I can probably guess you’re feeling so very excited and yet nervous all at the same time.
It’s such a profound time for you - believe me when I say, I know because I’ve been there - twice.
Like me, there may be some niggles and worries, but most of all you just want to FEEL confident and to know you’re on the right track.
So let’s get you started, together.
You are in the right place - because you’re..
…trying to finish up at work (or get through work) and you’re in overload mode feeling like you just can’t take on anymore
...you want to get this whole being pregnant and becoming a mother thing ‘right’ - right for you and your family. But you just want to get through the birth first
...the unknown ahead is just another thing to think about BUT you want to understand what being a mother means, what changes will it bring, and how to cope with those changes and prepare yourself to make sure you thrive during pregnancy and after
… you’re feeling overwhelmed by the information overload about and the negative talk around the birth, lack of sleep, the feeding, the swaddling (how the heck do I even swaddle) and not knowing what is ahead of you…
and you just want to feel excited and joyful…
Your thoughts are all normal, but they don’t have to define your experience of motherhood.
Pregnancy is only nine months, but motherhood is a lifetime.
So now is your opportunity to leave all that behind and to design the motherhood YOU want.
Together, let’s get you on your way to a motherhood experience that YOU want, filled with confidence so you can FEEL steady and grounded - ready to take on those tough moments.
Join the gathering and feel…
a deep sense of confidence as you journey into motherhood
empowered with the latest in’s and out’s of mothering as a modern mother
like you’re already a good mother
like nourishing your body and nurturing your recovery can be easy
And leave feeling like ‘you’ve got this’
The Pregnancy Gathering
A divine session for you, the nervous, unsure mama-to-be who wants to do this motherhood thing the ‘right way’ and be able to ‘balance’ it with other aspects of your life.
When other mothers/friends/family say ‘no one can really prepare you’, the truth is you CAN be confident and prepared.
I've taken everything I've learned from multiple experts who’ve spent years researching and unpacking the modern motherhood journey and packaged it up as a divine two hours.
This nurturing gathering has been designed for you to learn about the profound transformation taking place in your life so you can leave feeling confident and aware.
Because I get it, you want answers and you want to feel reassured NOW, not after the baby comes.
At The Pregnancy Gathering you will…
learn to calm those nerves and worries
look at ways to reduce sleep deprivation
find your mama confidence
learn from the nourishing and body recovery experts
look at what support is available and discover what you really need
And of course this is supported by the latest research and expert knowledge on the modern mothering and motherhood experience.
A beautiful afternoon tea will be supplied as well as a gathering workbook for you to reference your notes when you need them the most.
You will be greeted with a gift of divine products to help YOU the divine first time mother, look after yourself and mother you first.
Finally exclusive access to The Mother First private facebook village where you can gather with other first time mothers to further build your confidence and connections - as well as continue to design the motherhood experience you want.
“I would highly recommend The Pregnancy Gathering to any expecting mother. Laura’s honesty, discussion, resources and suggestions were really valuable and it was empowering to be able to connect with, share with and discuss with other expecting mamas. I definitely left feeling more confident, calm and empowered to embrace this transition.”

Hi, I’m Laura
I am a mother of 2 vibrant busy boys 3yrs and 5.5yrs, and I wish someone had told me that being a mother meant mothering myself first.
Over the past six years I’ve walked the path presented before you noticing every bump, crack and ditch along the way. But think of me as your shortcut - I've done it for you, the research, the Google searches, the expert reading and workshops. I’ve sat in a circle with other mothers and I've learnt the skills you're looking for and I asked the questions that you want to ask.
I often say having a baby is like studying for an exam when you have no idea what the content is. What if you could go to a class not to learn about the functional parts; breastfeeding, settling, the birth, the pain management etc, but to learn about how to transform from a woman you are into the mother you long to be?
After many years in the advertising world, I went on to specifically study several matrescence and self development courses and now a Mama Rising Certified Facilitator and soon to be certified in Motherhood Studies, I want to share what I've learnt with you, beautiful. Let me save you the time, money, heartache and possible breakdown.
It’s that simple, beautiful. I am the mother in your village - the wise, been there before you, elder with a whole lot of modern motherhood resources, with open arms wanting to guide and help you through your transformation.
Warmest love, Laura x
