Over the 20+ years I have supported women and babies, I’ve found that many women who are looking for an empowering pregnancy and birth experience find that they are either unprepared for what to expect during pregnancy and birth, or that they are overwhelmed with all of the information they are bombarded with on the internet, social media and from family and friends.
Many of the women I have had the pleasure of supporting postnatally wish they had been better prepared and realised with the benefit of hindsight that the information they had been provided only provided them with a basic understanding of the birthing process.
Being well informed, and understanding what you can do during your pregnancy and birth to influence the experience that you have can make a hugely positive difference for you, your partner and your baby.
The mumabuba positive pregnancy and birth circle is a new approach to exploring positive pregnancy and birth journeys through a weekly, small, friendly and safe group environment. Rather than expecting you to absorb a huge amount of information in one go, we will explore a different topic each week and spend time discussing what we know, what we’ve experienced, debunking some of the common urban myths and focusing on ways to make the experience as positive as possible for you and your baby.
Week 1 – Introductions + Understanding and reframing pain
Week 2 – Understanding what my baby is experiencing during pregnancy and birth
Week 3 – Understanding how your own birth can influence your pregnancy and birth
Week 4 – Exploring how you feel about birth and your readiness for becoming a parent
Week 5 – Understanding the consequences of common interventions & maternity language
Week 6 – Bring your own topic – open exploration of whatever is front of mind
Each positive pregnancy and birth circle will have a maximum of 6 women.
Each circle will last for 6 weeks and we will meet for 1hr each week to explore a different topic.
Each weekly exploration will be facilitated by Jo, founder of mumabuba, in an informal, discussion-based way…no death by Powerpoint!
By the end of the 6 weeks you’ll have met some new local mums-to-be, be better informed about pregnancy and birth, and have some useful tips on how to make the experience as positive and empowering as possible for you and your baby.
So if you’d like to explore what a positive pregnancy and birth journey looks like, and have the opportunity to get together with other local women each week, then please join the mumabuba positive pregnancy and birth circle!
Don’t delay, spaces limited to 6 women and take place every 8 weeks.
As a special launch offer the first circle will cost just $120 for the 6 weeks, so that’s just $20 for each week!
