Labor Essentials Workshop
Effective labor tools to confidently prepare for a low-intervention birth
The Labor Essentials workshop shares highly practical information families can use during their labor in order to meet their goal of having a natural or low-intervention birth at any birth location. During the workshop families will learn:
What to expect in the different phases of labor (because fear of the unknown is often a reason women may veer from their birth plan)
Different labor positions to help sustain labor progression
Pushing position options for shorter pushing times
Comfort measures to effectively address discomfort
Breathing techniques for labor and pushing
The importance of relaxation and addressing our mental and emotional state during labor
How partners can best support mom in her pursuit of a natural or low intervention birth
And more!
Families taking this workshop will receive the course notes, photos of the different labor positions we will practice, and handouts summarizing key principles to take to birth location.
