Birth Preparation Course for Couples

This is a one day workshop, which comes highly recommended as an addition to the weekly Active Birth classes. The course is also excellent as a one off if you are unable to do the weekly classes or just need a refresher course. The day is designed for couples and/or birth partners to be there, but if it doesn't work for you it is always fine to come on your own.

The main aim of this workshop is to ensure that both you and your partner have the knowledge and tools required for you to have the best chance of an empowered birth experience.

The day focuses on normal physiological birth and clearly describes the advantages of an Active Birth.

The course includes a lot of practical work on birth positions, breathing and chanting as a couple as well as massage. Partners find it very helpful in developing a better understanding of the birth process and greater confidence to be at the birth.

Anatomy & physiology of birth - how is the body designed and what to expect of a normal labour

Optimal fetal positioning - how to get the baby into a good position before labour and how to encourage them to move if they choose an unfavourable one

Creating the birth environment - how to create the best conditions for a natural birth to unfold

Coping with pain - practicing a variety of techniques

Writing your birth plan - the guideline for what you want and for what you need from people, who are present during your labour

The role of the birth partner - clarifying what women in labour need from their birth partners
