Flexible Birth Prep FAQs

If you don’t find the answer you need, please contact me and ask!

Is this for couples?

Most sessions are for the pregnant women or birthing person to come alone and meet other pregnant people. The ‘Birth Partner Master Class’ is the only session aimed at couples. If you’d like to find a course where your birth partner is involved every step of the way, my hypnobirthing courses might be a better option for you.

Do I need to buy one or two tickets for the Birth Partner Master Class?

Just one – I will assume you are bringing your birth partner with you.

Can I bring more than one birth partner?

If you plan on having more than one birth partner with you on the day, it’s a great idea for them to join this class, too, however it will depend on how much space I have available as to whether I can accommodate them. Please contact me about this and we can make arrangements.

Does it matter which order I take these sessions in?

No. You can come to any, in any order. I have designed them to make sure that they make sense as stand alone sessions. Of course, I think the more you come to, the better! Knowledge is power!

When is the best time to come to these sessions?

Most people like to wait until after 12 weeks to start anything like this, and the most popular time to start is at around week 20. But it really is your call. It’s worth mentioning that The Birth Mindset Method is better to do earlier on in pregnancy, anytime from 12 weeks, because mental prep takes time, and the session provides you with the tolls to work on this at home.

What should I wear?

Comfy clothing and sensible shoes that you can remove easily. The sessions take place in a beautiful yurt, amongst nature. There’s a short walk down a path that can get muddy. Once inside, you’ll be sitting on yoga mats, with bolsters and cushions available for your comfort. You’ll also need to remove your shoes when you enter the yurt.

What do I need to bring?

You don’t need to bring anything at all, but of you have a birth ball, you might like to bring it to sit on. Herbal tea will be available during the session.

What’s the address of The Wellness Wood?

Because the Wellness Wood is in the grounds of someone’s private home, they prefer to give the exact address out to people who have booked a session, 24 hours before the date of the session. It is about a 3 minute walk from Hollingworth Lake, in Littleborough. Limited parking is available at the property, and some people will need to park at the Hollingworth Lake car park.
