The Complete Birth Preparation & Postpartum Guides

Looking for more information on how to prepare for birth and postpartum, but not necessarily looking for doula support? Check out The Complete Birth Prep Guide and The Complete Postpartum Guides: Comprehensive guides that cover more than you could ever want to know as you prepare to have your baby.

OBs and midwives simply don’t have time in your prenatal appointments to cover every aspect of labor, birth, or postpartum—and you don’t have the mental energy (or time!) to look up every individual thing. So I put it all together for you.

Written by a homebirth and hospital doula, mom of two, and perinatal personal trainer, the Guides are written to help you feel empowered about labor and birth and prepared for postpartum. The combined guide is over 50 pages of research- and experience-backed knowledge. It’s all there: The seemingly obvious down to the easily-overlooked nitty-gritty.

What you’ll learn:

• What happens during each stage of labor

• How baby’s position can impact labor—and how to encourage better positioning

• Labor positions

• Medication options explained

• Pain management tools and options

• C-section specific information

• Common labor and newborn interventions and your options for each

• How your partner can best support you

• How to write your ideal birth plan

• Informed decision-making

• Postpartum healing, rest, and nourishment

• What postpartum mood disorder symptoms to watch out for, and how to get the help you need

• How to care for your newborn

• Common relationship hurdles and returning to sex postpartum

• Breastfeeding expectations and tools

• And more

Along with the information covered in the Guides, you’ll also get:
