Home birth Prep

One of the most common feelings parents struggle with during pregnancy is fear. Fear grows easily and can be the biggest obstacle to having the empowered birth you are planning for you and your baby. The easiest way to dissolve fear is through education. The more knowledge you have, the more your questions are answered, the more you will trust your body and the birthing process. One parent also may feel more prepared than the other for birth and classes are a perfect way to get on the same page and explore questions that arise. Parents who plan for a home birth have better experiences when they’ve prepared for and understand physiologic birth.

Medicated Birth Strategy

You will learn about hospital procedures, anesthesia, and medications, as well as how to advocate for yourself in the hospital setting. Comfort measures and basic coping strategies for laboring, pushing, and birth are also introduced.
