prep for BIRTH with prenatal yoga
LEARN TIPS AND TECHNIQUES TO HELP YOU LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR LABOR & DELIVERY
what if you could feel CONFIDENT and EMPOWERED during childbirth?
“i'm SCARED to give birth.”
How many times have you said this to yourself?
Does this describe you? You...
Think about what could go wrong during your labor.
Read positive birth stories, but don’t understand how to have a better birth experience.
Feel overwhelmed, isolated or misinformed by the amount of resources and information online.
Took a childbirth education class, but wish you had a way to practice the information you learned.
Tell yourself you’ll get to a prenatal yoga class, but never find the time to get out your door.
Believe you can’t tolerate pain.
You’ll be facing the unknown of labor with no set of comfort measures or coping techniques to get you through.
I UNDERSTAND BECAUSE I WAS SCARED TOO!
The second I started showing, everyone told me about their own, or a friend of a friend’s, traumatic birth story. I knew my own story of how I came into the world wasn’t a positive one. I also didn’t think I could tolerate much pain. But, I didn’t want to be another unnecessary induction or cesarean birth. Most of all, I didn’t want to be afraid to give birth. I spent a lot of time envisioning what I wanted my birthing experience to be like. I read tons of books and attended Hypnobirthing classes.
But I knew I could be doing more. I needed something that I could do anywhere and on my own schedule. I wanted something that I looked forward to every day and really enjoyed. I realized the time spent on my yoga mat could help me prepare for labor.
I BELIEVE THAT ALL WOMEN SHOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN COPING STRATEGIES, REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY CHOOSE TO GIVE BIRTH.
I BELIEVE WE CAN HAVE A SMOOTHER TRANSITION TO MOTHERHOOD IF WE HAVE A POSITIVE BIRTH EXPERIENCE.
I BELIEVE THAT WOMEN WHO FEEL EMPOWERED WHEN THEY’RE PREGNANT FEEL CONFIDENT DURING LABOR AND ARE MORE PREPARED TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS.
