Birth Preparation Workshop for Couples/ Birth Partners

These one day workshops can either be taken as a complement to the Labour of Love Birth Preparation and Natural Active Birth classes / courses or on their own. Through a mix of information and practical exercises you will learn about birth physiology, deepen your understanding of how to support a woman giving birth and how you can work together during the labour and birth.

Areas covered include the importance of optimal foetal positioning, birth positions, the role of birth hormones, the birth environment, phases of labour, birth of the placenta, pain coping practices, breath awareness, comfort measures for labour and natural and medical interventions. There is plenty of time for discussion, questions, addressing concerns and getting to know the other couples.
