Birth Preparation Sunshine Coast

“Pernille was brilliant, we came away from the classes with confidence about the uncontrollable, as well as feeling that no matter what, my husband and I would be comfortable with whatever happened”. Rebecca 1st time Mum.

Birth Connection’s Birth preparation classes offers you a holistic and soulful approach to birth preparation, based on the popular book and philosophy of ‘Birthing From Within’.

Next Workshop: TBC

The classes combine practical modern information with creative and experiential exercises and are about empowering women and their partners to have a positive birth, regardless of how and where their baby is born.

The classes, workshops and session are interactive, fun and engaging, also for partners, and will help you meet your birth experience with strength and confidence.

Parents come away from classes feeling more confident about meeting their birth with commitment, determination and an open heart.

The classes can be taken instead of your traditional hospital class or in conjunction with them.

Through the preparation we will work with:

• Creating a pain coping mindset – there is a big difference between pain and suffering. Pain and the physical sensations of birth are simply “what is.” Suffering occurs when we believe the negative internal story we tell ourselves about the pain. Learn mindfulness practices to help you stay aware of how your mind chatter supports you or discourages you.

• How birth works and how we best support it – birth is orchestrated by a beautiful cocktail of hormones. Understand how to help birth work and how to support the process also if intervention is needed.

• How to be a mindful and supportive helper – being at birth can be very overwhelming. Understand what might be helpful to a birthing woman and what is helpful to your birthing woman. Built confidence in you and your partner.

• What to do when things don’t go as planned – learn about the birth fairy, and how to deal with unexpected events, how to make decisions in labour and communicate effectively with your caregivers to get the best out of the system.

• Baby’s journey through the pelvis – learn simple ways to make space for baby and how to help him/her on their way.

• How to give birth from within by cesarean – understand what happens during a cesarean and what you can do the make the process more positive for you. Even if this is what you most hope won’t happen.

• Welcoming your baby – now what?

• Celebrating birthwith all its joys and challenges. Prepare to be amazed!!!!!

plus much, much more…
