During pregnancy, dear mothers-to-be, take time for yourself and your baby and try to attend a preparatory course: a series of meetings on a regular basis that can help you understand what’s happening to you and your baby and how to be supported.
It will be a meaningful opportunity for you to meet other mothers-to-be, who are perhaps experiencing such a special and intense moment like you. Also this course could give you a chance to discuss all the questions and doubts that may arise on the topics of pregnancy and of motherhood, with professionals in the sector who are prepared and available. Furthermore, these meetings will be the perfect time that’ll bring you closer to the moment of childbirth and will allow you to get there prepared and aware of what will happen.
These courses analyse: the moments of labour and delivery; the non-pharmacological and pharmacological methods of pain control; breathing and visualisations, passing through massages useful in view of labour.
Check with your doctor/midwife if, when and where these courses are organised.
