Knitted In The Womb offers childbirth classes with comprehensive information about choices that are available to birthing women. Full classes are 24 hours of instruction time, as compared to a typical 8-12 hour class.

Topics covered include:

•Anatomy and physiology of pregnancy

•Pain management

•Safe, effective comfort techniques

•Support skills for the partner

•Writing a birth plan

•Pregnancy exercises and nutrition

•Stages of labor and birth

•Complications and interventions

•Breastfeeding

•Postpartum care and newborn care

•Optimal Fetal Positioning

 

Private classes for individuals with challenging schedules or who are on bedrest and may need in-home instruction. A benefit of this expanded education is that clients feel more prepared for birth and parenting, and have a cesarean rate that is significantly lower than the surrounding community. Birth doula services are available to help improve the birth experience through hands on care.

I wanted to have a blessing way for my cousin but knew nothing about it. When I met with Jenn she offered options, helped us choose & prepared for the special day. Jenn came to the small intimate gathering with lovely materials that she had planned for the event. We all shared our experiences with birth. My cousin was nervous about the birth & Jenn's doula skills came in handy when talking about birth fears. All of us left the evening feeling closer and bonded. We are waiting for the little guy to join us on Earth. The best part was my Grandma applying a henna daisy to her baby bump & Grandma wishing she had a blessing way before each of her 8 births. Feel free to contact me with more information on Facebook....more
