Join Us for a Fun & Empowering Birth Prep Class! 🤰✨
Pregnancy, labor, and early parenting can feel overwhelming—but we’ve got you! This class will help you kick fear to the curb and build confidence as you learn what’s really going on in your body. You’ll discover how to work with your body (instead of against it) during labor, plus practical ways to stay calm, comfortable, and in control.
Birth partners—we see you! You’ll walk away with real-deal tools to provide hands-on comfort and support while feeling empowered in your role. We’ll also cover how to handle the unexpected with evidence-based info and informed decision-making. Oh, and don’t worry—we won’t leave you hanging after birth! We’ll dive into postpartum recovery, newborn care, and feeding tips to help your whole family adjust smoothly. 🍼💛
What You’ll Learn:
✅ The (real) history of birth
✅ How your body actually works during labor
✅ Mind-body connection & how it helps you cope 🧘‍♀️
✅ Nutrition & movement tips for a smoother experience 🥑💪
✅ Why due dates are so unreliable 😅
✅ The three stages of labor & how to know you’re progressing
✅ Understanding sensations (and what’s normal!)
✅ Natural comfort measures & breathing techniques 🌬️
✅ Positions that help labor progress & feel better
✅ How partners can actually help (instead of standing there awkwardly) 🤗
✅ Touch techniques for pain relief & relaxation
✅ Making informed choices & navigating options with confidence
✅ Birth planning without over-planning ✨
✅ Communication skills to advocate for what you need
✅ And so much more!
Whether this is your first baby or you’ve done this before, you’ll leave feeling informed, empowered, and ready to rock your birth and postpartum journey! 🎉
Come join us—your future self will thank you! 💛
