Birth without Fear

​

When is it appropriate to take a Birth withour fear course?

​

It is usually sometime after week 25. If you are very worried, we recommend taking the course earlier. 

​

What differentiates the Birth without fear from other childbirth preparation courses?

​

During the course, we work based on physiology, i.e. how the body works, which means that everyone, regardless of whether it is the birthing person or the partner, can recognize what we are talking about. This not only strengthens the laboring woman in her understanding of how to manage the contractions, but also the partner. The partner gets a lot of focus and is therefore strengthened in his role not only by having understood different techniques but also by having gained bodily experience based on the exercises we do together, individually and in pairs.

 

As instructors, we are experienced and active as doulas at local birth clinics, which means that we are up-to-date on the latest, e.g. which guidelines and routines exist and how it looks at the various hospitals around Skåne. You are given the opportunity to contact the instructor via email or phone if any further questions arise before or after the birth. 

​

The course has given good results in evaluations. 77% are helped by the course during childbirth and 84% have a good experience with them from childbirth. (Evaluation made by 71 expectant parents giving birth and partners). This course is not only inspired by Birth without fear, it is Birth without fear, which means that the pedagogical approach, which is a great advantage of the course, is designed so that the tools are useful tools even when it is time to give birth.

​

Din Gravidcoach was the first to bring Birth without fear to Skåne and since 2013, thousands of parents have been trained in the method. We also train midwives at, among others, Lund University in the Birth without fear tools.
