PREPARE FOR BIRTH AND BABY
We cover everything you need to know to prepare for birth, including surviving the 4th trimester and provide a fantastic opportunity to make friends.
We teach in a grounded and down to earth way and our courses always include:
*The signs labour is starting
*The stages of labour, how things typically progress
*What is a contraction? The science behind what your body is doing and techniques to help you cope
*The role of hormones and the importance of the positive feedback loop
*The effects of fear on the process
*Using the breath, yoga positions and mindfulness as a toolkit for labour (complements the Hypno-Birthing approach)
*Clear explanations of all possible medical interventions and pain relief options – and why these sometimes have a much needed place
*How to make decisions and give meaningful informed consent in the moment – and why it is this that goes towards creating a more positive experience
*How long things might take, when to call, what to pack in your bag
*Where to birth choices – home, midwife led unit or hospital
*Essential birth partner tips – what to do, when
*The 4th trimester – early days with your newborn, what to expect – feeding, sleeping, baby care, mum’s self care and returning safely to exercise
*Some areas also offer Baby First Aid – a key essential for all new parents
*Meet ups, brunches, picnics to get to know each other.
