Birth Preparation Course ("Geburtsvorbereitungskurs") - in English - ONLINE
When should we go to hospital? What should we pack for our hospital bag? What happens to the body during childbirth? How does childbirth work? What are the stages of childbirth? Which movements will help us during birth? How does breathing during labour works?
Why are hormones so important? What is the role of the partner/companion during birth? What happens during a C-section? What do we need to buy? What does a newborn need? How does breastfeeding work? What is the postpartum period?
This course cover all the necessary information on giving birth, the postpartum period, baby care, breast and bottle feeding and changing diapers, so there is no need to attend a separate infant care or postpartum care course.
However, detailed information on how to carry your baby with a sling or baby carrier is not included.
We recommend completing the birth preparation course at least 1 month before the expected due date. If in doubt, sooner rather than later.
Of course, you are also welcome to attend our birth preparation courses if you are pregnant with twins. However, we would like to point out that the specifics of twin births and special topics related to the postpartum period for twins are not covered in the course. We therefore recommend booking a dedicated twin birth preparation course.
Partner fee is € 80
