COMING SOON: Lila's Empowered Birth All-Day Childbirth Course

Prepare for birth and postpartum with our comprehensive eight-hour course led by an OB nurse with 10+ years of maternal health experience. This course is typically taught over a series of 4 sessions, but join us for this full day course that includes all of the same information delivered to you on a single, highly interactive day. Unlike hospital-sponsored classes, this independent course offers a holistic exploration of all of your childbirth options, so that you can leave feeling equipped to have important conversations with your healthcare provider and make informed decisions about your birth.

Course Highlights:

- Understanding Labor and Coping Strategies: Dive into the stages of labor, from early signs to delivery. Learn effective coping techniques including breathing exercises, relaxation methods, and movement strategies to manage labor discomfort. Expect interactive exercises that are fun and informative for both you and your partner.

-  Crafting Your Birth Plan: Participate in a birth planning workshop where you'll create a personalized birth plan. Explore options for birth settings, pain management, and interventions, ensuring your preferences are clearly communicated to your healthcare team.

- Breastfeeding Essentials and Postpartum Preparation: Gain practical insights into breastfeeding techniques, positioning, and common challenges. Discuss essential postpartum supplies and their uses to promote recovery and comfort during the early weeks with your newborn.

- Partner Support and Enhancing the Birth Experience: Lila understands the importance of partners in the birth space. In this course expect your partner to gain practical knowledge and skills that can be used to make him/her your rock in the birth room. With the right tools, even the most nervous partners can help protect your birth space and be your biggest advocate. Think of it like doula training for partners!
