Come and talk over your 'Choices in Childbirth'
Active Birth Taranaki Inc. is a not-for -profit group made up of lay members of our community passionate about owning your own birth — wherever that may be.
Being women who like nothing better than to "meet at the river" to talk over and laugh over the important issues of life, we are getting together to talk over your/our Choices in Childbirth. This will be an informal discussion in Carla's warm and welcoming home, with input from all of us with experiences to contribute.
Whether you are interested in exploring childbirth choices and claiming ownership of your birth, you're a support person or simply an interested party, we'd love your input too. Heck, come along just to be around positive, upbeat women, for confidence, laughs and companionship - we do!
This month we'll be focussing on using water for labour and/or birth, but this discussion can roam anywhere it takes us. We will also catch up on previous weeks topics/questions. We're happy to talk with you about
any concerns, questions, triumphs or stories you have!
This month - JULY
Focus: Managing Labour - Using water for labour and/or birth and other options for labour.
When: 29th July, from 7.30pm
Where: Carla Moore's house (112c Hine St, New Plymouth)- may need to park on the road and walk the driveway if you need to be guaranteed a speedy exit
Bring: Gold coin koha or something to share to nibble on
We anticipate these relaxed discussions will continue monthly throughout the year (replacing our current Choices In Childbirth classes until further notice) with four main topics being discussed on a revolving basis. Topics in later months will include Managing Labour (including Using Water in Labour, Acupressure), Dads' Talk, and Babywearing/Sleep Options.
Come along - we'd love to see and hear from you. All welcome!
