Further info on course and course leader:
This course is held regularly at Meridiem usually every month-6wks. The course prepares you for everything you need to know to birth in Sweden such as hospital routines here, your rights and how to make informed choices about your care etc, as well as going through the usual birth prep subjects like medical and natural pain relief, breathing, relaxation and hands- on practise of massage and pressure techniques for the birth partners.
We learn about the physiology of birth and how we can support that with lots of tips for the birth partners too so you both can feel safe, secure and calm during the labour process.
We also look at the postpartum period and prepare for that, looking into what to expect the first few hrs, days and weeks, baby care, healing after birth and basics of baby feeding.
It is a very comprehensive course aiming to have all your questions answered!
🧑‍🧑‍🧒 It is also a wonderful opportunity to get to know other international families in Gothenburg.
