Pre-Natal
Before Birth is a time of immense mental, physical and emotional growth. Changes are happening, both seen and unseen. I can provide space and means to navigate those changes and what they mean for you.
BeforeBirth Education
What is birth? How does birth happen? Using physiological birth as a baseline, we explore how uninterrupted birth works, natural coping mechanisms, possible alternatives to physiological birth and what to expect from them. And pain relieving options, including medical and non-medical tools for labour. We will also cover what to do after birth- the golden hour, breast crawl, first feed, 3rd stage options, and what is a babymoon?
BeforeBirth Preparation
Preparing YOU for YOUR birth.
Taking into account your specific history and circumstances, considering your options, and deciding your preferences. Whether you opt for a waterbirth in the woods or a planned cesarean birth. We do multilayered birth planning and figure out what is important to you and how to mesh what you want with what you need for a truly empowering birth. We also cover being your own advocate and getting the best support from your care providers.
BeforeBirth Debrief
What is birth to you? How do you feel about it? How has your view of birth so far coloured your view of the birth to come? Do you have a previous birth experience that you haven't yet processed? What do you know of your own birth? Are you carrying trauma from a past birth that needs to be unpacked before you can proceed clearly into the next? This session deals with these questions in a sensitive manner whilst providing an outside view allowing full understanding of the what and the why of your birth history, integrating it into your story and seeing how it relates, (or not!) to your birth future.
