One to One birth preparation
You may not wish to have a doula with you in labour, but would like to have the benefit of one to one birth preparation with a doula in the comfort of your own home. As experienced mothers and specially trained birth supporters, doulas are skilled in helping mothers and their partners during pregnancy, labour and the postnatal period.
These evenings are tailored to each woman and her partner depending on YOUR needs. Topics COULD include:
- Antenatal class topics, such as stages of labour and pain relief (natural and pharmaceutical), for couples who have been unable to attend antenatal classes due to lack of availability or lack of time
- Debriefing a previous birth experience for couples expecting a subsequent baby and wanting to move on and have a more positive experience
- Writing an effective birth plan and how to maximize your chances of success
- How can my partner REALLY help me during labour
- Baby? Now what!
