Birth Preparation Workshops

These are held at weekends and are for women with their birth partners. During the workshop we will be covering basic physiology and anatomy of birth through the three stages of labour and then we will concentrate on breathing, massage and positions for labour and birth. It will introduce you to what may happen in the labour and ways of helping the labour progress, and thoughts of options that will be available to you. We also explore the use and benefits of the birth ball.

The emphasis of the workshop will be on what you can do for yourself, how you can help improve your birth experience and how birth partners can help and support you through your labour. If you are coming on your own, I will be there to work with you when we do any work with partners.
