Too few Birth Centers! Birth skills will improve your probability of achieving a Birth Center birth.
Birth Centres or Primary Birth Units are preciously few and far between. They stay open when birthing families have good births. Become skilled, birth better and reduce transfer to hospital.
Birth Centres usually accept ‘low risk normal pregnancy and birth’. 20%+ transfer due to failure to progress and not coping. Change these two factors with skills.
Learning Birthing Better body preparation skills goes a long way to prevent stuck babies and stalled labor and delivery. The birth and coaching skills give you control over the natural occurring pain.
We want to grow a skilled birthing population so that wonderful Birth Centre midwives will work wth skilled families. Birth changes when families are skilled.
The word ‘intervention’ started to be used in mid1980s. Instead we used: assessments, monitoring and procedures (AMP). Use skills to cope better in birth and as you experience those AMP.
When you use Birthing Better skills you’ll reduce the likelihood of transferring. You’ll also commit to using these skills throughout your baby’s birth even in hospital.
