STACK THE ODDS IN YOUR FAVOUR OF HAVING A POSITIVE BIRTH! •Are you feeling a little anxious about the birth of your new arrival? •Do you want to be actively involved in the decision making and understand what choices are available to you for the labour and birth of your baby? •Would you like to be more informed about the current policies and practices within our Maternity Hospitals? •Would you like to equip yourselves with the relevant tools to assist you with the most positive and calm birth? •Do you feel that your partner is a little overwhelmed by the prospect of childbirth and is unsure about what role he should play on the day? If you have answered yes to any of the above questions, the Gentlebirth Programme and Workshop is for you. ! GentleBirth workshops are not like other antenatal classes. The GentleBirth Workshop is the only class in Ireland that focuses on birth preparation for the biggest day of your life – and your baby’s. We don’t teach you how to change nappies or how to bathe your baby (we know you’ll have that figured out very quickly). Our focus is preparing you for the most positive birth possible – no matter what comes your way on the big day. With over 8 years of experience supporting clients through Irish maternity services we help you navigate and negotiate the Irish Maternity system. You and your partner get the inside track – so you can make the system work for you. You will leave the workshop equipped with the knowledge and confidence on how to negotiate the best birth for you and your baby. How does Gentlebirth work? Gentlebirth is a complete childbirth preparation programme that teaches easy self- hypnosis (deep relaxation) techniques which enable you to feel calm, confident and in control throughout your pregnancy and labour. GentleBirth helps you to change chronic thought patterns (worry, anxiety and stress) to confidence and excitement in a very short time. It feels like a weight has been lifted as you look forward to your baby’s birth without any fear. The confidence that comes with GentleBirth means that you and your partner feel prepared to handle anything that comes your way on the day of your baby’s birth without anxiety. Gentlebirth not only teaches self -hypnosis techniques but also active birthing principles enabling couples of have a empowered, confident birth experience with or without medical interventions at home or at the hospital. Over 85% of GentleBirth mums did not require an epidural during the labour and birth of their baby. Our Mums and Dads are not martyrs or looking for medals. They practice and prepare for the big day just like they would train for an athletic event but the key is mental preparation rather than physical. Mums who attend GentleBirth workshops are from all walks of life – teachers, stay at home mums, midwives and more. Like you, they’ve all heard the scary stories and have decided to stack the deck in their favour of having a great birth experience rather than leaving the biggest day of their lives by chance. Gentlebirth workshops take place over a weekend. On Saturday, the workshop runs from 1pm – 5pm and on Sunday from 9am – 3pm. Although, Labour and birth is a serious topic, the workshop is a lot of fun. It makes for a very relaxing informative weekend. And don’t worry, no one will be going home barking like a dog after the hypnosis session. Alternatively, there is also the opportunity to attend a private workshop if you would prefer at no additional cost. During the workshop you will meet other couples who also want to have an active role in working towards a very positive experience. It gives you and your partner /birth partner a great opportunity to escape life’s day to day demands and just focus on each other and your baby for the weekend. You’ll leave the workshop feeling excited about labour – with no fear and ready for the great adventure of parenting – now immune to the scary stories everyone can’t wait to tell you.!! As part of the workshop, you will receive the complete GentleBirth Antenatal Programme Box Set which includes 8 CD’s and the Gentlebirth Guidebook. Please contact me if you are interesting in attending a private workshop or public workshop or if you require any further information in relation to our programmes. Full Details of our upcoming workshops will be posted on this page in the coming days.
