Push Prep (Virtual)

“I still don’t understand how I am going to get this baby out of my body!” -birthing people everywhere

Pushing can be the most dramatic phase of childbirth but often comes without instructions, even in long form childbirth classes (there is never enough time!).

This 2-hour class will help you stack the cards in your favour in order to reduce the length of time spent pushing, reduce the risk of tearing during delivery, and prepare you for postpartum pelvic floor recovery.

We will start with anatomy and walk you through the bony pelvis, pelvic floor muscles, fetal alignment, and breathing techniques so you can understand the physiology of pushing. You will practice pelvic floor contractions and relaxation, as well as various pushing positions to help train your body for the main event. Class is relevant and important for those planning a medicated or unmedicated birth! 

What's Covered:

• The anatomy of and connection between our posture and alignment, including bony pelvis, pelvic floor muscles and baby's positions/fetal alignment.
• The benefits of and options around prenatal body work.
• Breathing techniques so you can understand the physiology of pushing.
• You will practice pelvic floor contractions and relaxation.
• Various pushing positions to helpm train your body for the main event.
