| Hello, I am so glad that you have chosen to educate yourself about the many birthing options available to you and your new baby! My name is Rachaela and I am a stay at home mom to two beautiful children Gavin, 9 years and Olive, 18 months. When I was expecting my first child I was not very informed about pregnancy and birth. I wasn't aware of all of my options and had no idea what I should be looking or planning for. After my son's birth I felt like I wasn't really in control of the whole experience, I felt like I should have done a better job preparing for him by educating myself and having a more active role in our care. When, 7 years later, I became pregnant again I knew I wanted to become as informed as I could. I was excited to be able to take the primary role in discovering what was truly the best options for my pregnancy and birth. I took a series of Bradley Method® Childbirth classes with my husband Chris. We both enjoyed our teacher's in-depth explanations of the natural course of labor and birth as well as various interventions and hospital routines that we may encounter and how best to select which ones, if any at all, would help us have the safest birth possible. We were excited to learn how we could work with the labor of our child in order to make the experience a pleasurable and gentle one for us both. We did everything we could to stay low risk so that we would have a healthy baby and reach our goal of a safe and natural birth. Chris and I feel that we are much closer after the birth of our last child because we both understand what a vital role we both played in bringing her in to the world. Without the Bradley Method® classes that we took I am not sure that Chris would have best known how to comfort and assist me throughout my labor and birth. It was great having him be there with me and never feeling as if he was unsure of himself or the process of labor. This is a very special class and it has helped so many couples discover things about themselves and each other that I would strongly recommend it to any couple who make a great team and want to be the primary decision makers in the pregnancy and birth of their child! |
