✨ Our little Solea-Rae has arrived ✨
A little later than planned in sharing our news, but five weeks ago, on her very own due date, 16.09.26 at 7:15pm, our world became a little more beautiful. 🤍
Her arrival was truly special. A natural home birth, in our own space, allowing my body to lead and trusting the process.Phil was right there by my side, as alway... no midwives present…In those final moments, I reached down and felt her little head between my legs, a silky, full head of hair beneath my hands. Something about that moment gave me everything I needed, it made the final push felt easy, and then, just like that, she was here, at the same time the midwives walked through the door! We did it! Looking into her eyes for the very first time was a moment I’ll carry with me forever. There are some experiences that words will never quite do justice to, and that was one of them. ✨
My girls have been incredible, Shanti like a second mom, and our hearts are overflowing with the love that has surrounded us. To everyone who has checked in, shown up and gone above and beyond to take care of our little family, thank you. We have felt so held, supported and loved, and we are incredibly grateful. 🤍
Five weeks in, Solea-Rae has already grown and changed so much. I have made a full recovery, and this birth felt so much easier on my body than my first and second.. this time round I was even more prepared. I feel deeply grateful and I am enjoying this precious time of finding our rhythm together as a family of five. And now, as I settle into this new chapter of motherhood, I’m beginning to feel that gentle pull back towards myself, too.
I’m ready to return to my own personal yoga journey, to move, breathe, reconnect and simply see where it takes me. No pressure, no rigid plans, just listening to my body, honouring the season I’m in and allowing things to unfold in their own time…👶🏾🌸💕To our Soulful Tribe fam, I miss you all! ❤️
Thank you for your patience, your love and for continuing to hold space for me while life has been beautifully full in other ways.
With so much love,
Holly, Phil Shanti, Ashaya & baby Solea-Rae🤍 ###
