A course that prepares you for all the variances that exist in a hospital birth: not just what the hospital tells you
Welcome to a birth course like no other! Here, we dive deep into the world of birth and labor management, focusing on the real-life experiences within a hospital setting. It's important to understand that the journey of labor isn't a one-size-fits-all path; each hospital comes with its own set of unique policies, budgets, and staffing that can significantly influence your experience.
From staffing levels to the availability of essential medications, including epidural management, every detail matters. The amount of time allowed for labor and pushing varies widely across facilities, so being aware of these differences can empower you.
Furthermore, individual birth providers have their own preferences in how they manage labor and childbirth, leading to a wide range of approaches for things like induction, cesarean sections, and epidural use. This course has been crafted with one goal in mind: to equip you with all the options available for labor and birth management.
With this knowledge, you can make informed decisions and practice true informed consent. After all, we can only make the best choices with the information we have, and I’m here to help ensure you have the knowledge you need!
