GROUP BIRTH PREP

Group Birth Prep courses at The KO in Newtown, Geelong.

6 hours of content over 2 evenings.

Topics that are covered in the Geelong Born Birth Prep program are:


  • Understanding normal physiological birth and our amazing birth hormones
  • Choices for your pregnancy and birthing journey
  • Body knowledge and awareness
  • Non-drug alternatives for effective pain relief in labour
  • Pharmacological pain relief in the hospital setting
  • What your birth partner can do to help
  • The use of massage and touch in labour
  • Active positioning in labour
  • Creating your positive birthing space and birthing in water​
  • Relaxation techniques in birthing
  • Discussion surrounding hospital interventions and procedures - induction, assisted birth and caesarean
  • Making informed decisions and communicating preferences with your care provider
  • Your baby, breastfeeding and the early days of parenting

​The content is evidence-based, modern and interactive. Geelong Born Birth Prep sessions are geared towards parents expecting their first baby, however anyone wanting to gain further knowledge and tools will benefit greatly.

We recommend you participate in the course between 24-36 weeks gestation.

This program has been created by Rosie Fitzclarence specifically for Geelong Born. It covers strategies for relaxation and positive but not a hypnobirthing course. Head to the Geelong Born hypnobirthing page if your looking for that 😉
