Specialist
Private Antenatal Class
A
pregnant woman has nine months to prepare her
and her baby’s body and mind for the experience
of labour. The more time you give yourself to
become ‘birthfit’ the better the chance
you have of a healthy, natural and even enjoyable
birthing experience.
Have our Specialists
show you and your birthing partner safe and effective
techniques for your labour and birthing experience.
As well as reducing your discomfort and increasing
your awareness of your baby’s birth, this is a great way for your birthing partner
to feel like a useful part of the event.
Having a birthing partner who
can help you to feel more comfortable and know
how to support you effectively during labour will
allow you to feel safe and protected and give
you the chance to focus your whole attention on
you and your baby.
BY THE END OF THE SESSION YOU WILL...
- Be able to reduce the experience of discomfort
using safe and effective techniques in all the
different labouring positions
- Utilise the maximum space in your pelvis and help your
cervix dilate
- Know how to relieve backache and help turn
the baby during back labour (when a baby’s
spine is along it’s mother’s spine)
- Be able to relax your body to make your uterus
and vagina more effective
- Be able to use visualisation and relaxation
techniques to keep you relaxed and safe no matter
whether you’re in hospital, a birthing
suite, at home or on the back seat of a taxi!
