Did you know that, as expectant parents, you have the right to take time off work to participate in parenting education?
What was so valuable about taking a childbirth preparation class was that we got to see how we could use our own home when labor begins. It felt exciting and reassuring to envision, with this new perspective, how we could manage contractions in the shower, on the couch, and in the kitchen. I looked forward to the birth in a completely new way after this class!

We never thought a plan for the earlige phase of labor would make such a big difference. My wife had contractions for two nights before it was time to go to the hospital – and it was incredibly comforting to have a plan for this time!
Thank you for a great class!

We loved how hands-on the class was; my partner got to practice giving massages and other things to help me relax and manage pain. I had read many books about childbirth before the class, and I felt this was exactly what we needed to feel confident before our big day.

What is the difference between Din Gravidcoach's childbirth preparation class and Birth Without Fear?
Din Gravidcoach's childbirth preparation class is a private session that can be seen as both an in-depth exploration and a complement to "Birthing Without Fear" (FUR), where you gain expanded knowledge on how to optimally prepare for birth based on your individual thoughts, needs, and circumstances. The focus is on discovering what works best for you, exploring how you can use your own home during the latent phase, guidance in formulating a birth plan, discussing birthing positions, trying tools like the TENS machine and rebozo shawl, practicing massage and other pain relief techniques, and more.
Birthing Without Fear (FUR) is a well-established method that offers knowledge about the physiology of childbirth and provides strategies for how you can face and manage contractions together during labor using the four tools: breathing, relaxation, voice, and thought. The practical part is essential for the value of the course — it is when you practice together that the best preparation is created! "Birthing Without Fear" is regularly offered as a group class; see upcoming dates here.
You can choose to take the classes separately or attend a combo class where you benefit from the core of both courses, with emphasis on your personal preferences.
The combo class is three hours long and costs 3500 SEK in your home.
