Are you looking to become more informed, empowered, and prepared for your end of pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and postpartum period? These classes will be perfect for you!
I try to keep classes very conversational amongst the amount of information I will be sharing with you.
Classes are a combination of instructional time, videos, discussions, hands-on games, and practice.
Childbirth education includes what childbirth looks like, fetal positioning, hormones in birth, biology of birth, how the brain affects labor and birth, conscious childbirth, pain/fear/tension cycle, fight/flight approach, navigating birth, confident labor and birthing, discuss and practice comfort measures (emotional, mental, and physical), tearing prevention, birth affirmation, create a balanced self statement, as well as best immediate postpartum practices.
Breastfeeding education includes the benefits of breastfeeding for mother and child, information about your milk and milk supply, parenting practices that affect breastfeeding, practice various holds and positions for mom and baby, exploring what a good latch is and what it looks like as well as feels like, feeding cues, birth and postpartum suggestions for improving breastfeeding, baby habits, potential concerns and how to handle them, as well as other resources.
Postpartum planning is covered in an open discussion of mental health for both mom and dad, setting realistic expectations, biological normal infant sleep, relationship care, postpartum healing, and beyond.
Basic Baby Care covering bathing, diaper changes, feeding, baby gear, early weeks, and more.
All education is based on physiological and biological norms (i.e. natural childbirth, attachment parenting, etc.) with the highlights of body autonomy, medical freedom, alternatives, and more.
All clients receive Transcend Maternal Services custom resources.
