KURSANGEBOT
Birth preparation classes

This course offers you the basics for the perinatal period. It’s divided into three parts:
- The last 4 weeks of pregnancy: how the body changes and prepares for birth / how you can prepare for birth - both physically and psychologically
- Labour and birth: birth mechanics / coping techniques / the partner’s role
- Postpartum: First hours, days and weeks after childbirth / what to expect and how to prepare / physical and emotional changes / newborn development, needs and care / feeding the baby (breastfeeding and formula feeding)

Group course
In a small group of maximum 5 couples you get a chance to prepare for birth and postpartum in an interactive five hours course. You meet other parents-to-be from different cultural backgrounds, benefit from the „wisdom of the crowd“ and have a chance to ask all your questions. You’ll see, no question is stupid and there will be at least one other participant who’s equally as nervous and excited about becoming a new parent as you are!
The course takes place at our practice in Leimbach (Leimbachstrasse 56) on a Saturday every three months from 10am to 3pm with a lunch break. Small snacks for coffeefbreaks will be provided. The costs are 360CHF, your basic health insurance covers 150CHF.

While the basics of the last four weeks of pregnancy, labour and birth itself aswell as the postpartum period are covered, there’s time and space to focus on your particular wishes and needs. Be it that you would like to look at some specific topics in more detail, wish for a refresher after your previous birth experience, are expecting medical interventions (like a C-section) or discuss your options around choosing your mode and place of birth. Costs are 120CHF/hour

The private course takes place on a weekday at either our practice in Leimbach or at your place. The costs are 130CHF/hour, your basic health insurance covers 150CHF. For questions and application, please contact Anouk Hüssy directly (anouk@diehebammenpraxis.ch).
