Birth classes
When preparing to welcome a baby into your family, there are many ways to get ready. Taking an in-person birth class is a great way to start learning about your options in birth and what you may expect.
Bringing new life into the world is agruably one of the greatest tasks you will ever take on as a woman. Though uncountable women have gone through this rite of passage before us, it is still important to prepare ourselves for the journey ahead. Attending Childbirth Education Classes by Rise, Mama! will set you on the path of taking ownership over the remainder of your pregnancy, your birthing experience and the postpartum period.
With an emphasis on holistic well-being, bodily autonomy and informed consent, these classes will help prepare you for birth in any setting. Whether you choose a home birth or a hospital birth; a natural labor or a medicated one… these classes will provide you with the tools you need to own your birth.
We will explore the world of childbirth and early parenthood through three themes: Pregnancy & Preparing; Labor & Birth; Postpartum & Newborns. Together with your partner or support person, come learn the whys behind what is happening in your body and how to best support it. Whether that pertains to common discomforts of the third trimester, or practicing comfort measures to use during labor. When you choose our in-person, community classes, you will also have the opportunity to meet other parents-to-be and ask questions specific to your situation.
Some of the subjects we will learn about are:
- Third trimester discomforts and what can be done
