15. Apr
Welcome Rylan Miru Kim, born at 7.25 pm on the 6th of April at 3.56kgs and 52cm.
Before doing the Calm Birth Class with Cherie, I was focused on the mechanical/medical side of birth and hadn’t considered how I might approach labour calmly and confidently.
I didn’t actually know that this was possible – I’d always expected that you had to just put up with the pain and that it would eventually be over.
I managed to have a completely natural water birth using breathing, hip presses and visualisation to progress through labour with my partner by my side utilising the skills we’d learned in class.
Thank you for your knowledge and approach, we very much enjoyed the class and also the focus on birth partners and how they can assist.
Kindest,
Christina & Iltan
