Joyful birth

General information

Private positive birth coaching is truly personalised and individual coaching to help remove fears around pregnancy, birth and beyond.

So what is included in a private session?

Sessions are completely individualised dependent on the individual need.

The intention of the sessions though is to educate, inspire confidence and release fear and anxiety.

We will cover the physiology of birth, what is actually happening inside your body, if that is of benefit for you to understand. We may discuss what it might feel like and why.

We may look at the hormones that are needed for labour and birth, how you can encourage the natural flow of birth and what might have a negative impact on it, and what you can do about it! By understanding this it will give you a greater appreciation of what is happening and how you can be actively involved in the process.

We may look at various different coping strategies, I believe everyone has their own birthing style, there is no one method that will work for everyone, so I help you discover what might or might not work for you, as well as giving you a huge array of things to draw upon during labour and birth and beyond.

And although essentially we will be looking at natural ways to manage labour and birth we will also look at and discuss medical intervention, the why’s, when’s and how’s, what this may mean for you and your baby, and how to utilise what the medical profession can offer you if needed. This will cover everything from induction, pain relief, assisted birth and caesarean.

What every session will include is an ABC birth plan, which is an in depth detailed birth plan that covers different scenarios so you feel completely prepared.

After your session you will also receive a personalised e book that has all the information that we have covered, plus much more to continue the education and support that we have already started.

Sessions are charged at £40 per hour, a minimum of 3 hours is recommended for a 1st session, with possible sessions required afterwards should you feel it would benefit.

If you are wanting a positive birth, if there is any fear or anxiety holding you back from this then Joyful birth pregnancy and birth coaching can support you on your journey
