Undisturbed Birth
This 3 part series focuses on an “undisturbed” birth process. Meaning, we discuss how birth works if no one interferes. The main interest is protecting the natural hormone flow of labor as this is what keeps childbirth safe for parent and baby. This information is essential to anyone making informed decisions about their birth care, regardless of planned birth location.
Undisturbed Postpartum
Building on our discussion in “Undisturbed Birth”, here we focus on the hormone flow in the immediate postpartum time and up to several months post birth. Protecting this time is THE most important thing we can do to both keep birth safe and ensure that family bonds are firmly created.
Intuitive Childbirth
This course is a complete Childbirth Education Class on its own. It is recommended that you first watch “Undisturbed Birth” and “Undisturbed Postpartum” as this class does build on the understanding of that information. This class is excellent for anyone planning a hospital, home or unassisted birth but is tailored toward those planning an unmedicated birth.
