HYPNOBIRTHING
Hypnobirthing is a method used to help you surrender to your birthing body and trust in your natural ability to birth. Using breathing techniques, visualizations, and birth affirmations will help you prevent or break the fear – tension – pain cycle. Preparing for birth, Hypnobirthing allows both you and your partner to go inward to bring fears and emotions up and out. It allows you to experience a deep relaxation, all while remaining in control of your mind and body. Using the Hypnobirthing method and philosophy gives parents a different perspective on birth, making it a more joyful and comfortable experience.
SLEEP EDUCATION
Learn the science and the psychology behind infant and maternal sleep. There are several reasons as to why your infant wakes up in the night and it is normal. Learn sleep and nap strategies that are helpful for the whole family. Mama Tierra Birthing offers in-home sleep consultations, providing an individualized plan for your family. Here are my favorite books and websites on infant sleep:
BREASTFEEDING
Breastfeeding is a journey in and of itself. Just like it is important to educate and prepare yourself for your pregnancy and birth, learning how to establish and maintain your child’s source of nutrition is just as important. Our Certificated Lactation Educator Counselors can help you and your family get on the breast start!
The topics covered in our private breastfeeding class include:
- A&P of BF
- Breastfeeding Plan
- Common Concerns (Is my baby getting enough? Are they in the correct position and latching?
- Pumps and Equipment
- Work/School
- Maternal Nutrition/Meds/ Birth Control
- Myths, Support Systems, and Resources
POSTPARTUM PREPAREDNESS
Let’s talk postpartum! (Because no one really does)
This is not a class focusing on baby 101 care but instead postpartum parent 101 care. While postpartum is a time for welcoming the new baby to the family, it is also a time for healing and recovering. Come to learn the realities of life immediately after childbirth and what you can do to make it a smooth, supported, and nourishing transition.
In our Postpartum Preparedness class we cover the following:
- Birth…How does it affect postpartum?
- What is going on in my postpartum body?
- Healing from birth (vaginal and cesarean)
- Setting up a postpartum plan
- What is a Postpartum Doula?
- Other local services, and resources that play important roles in postpartum recovery
