Event Description: In this interactive 90-minute session, we’ll explore how to build a supportive birth team and make empowered, informed choices during labor. Whether you’re hoping for an unmedicated birth or planning to use medical interventions, this workshop offers balanced, evidence-based information to help you feel more prepared and in control.

In Birth Support + Medical Options, we’ll cover the roles of birth partners and doulas, along with comfort tools they can use to support you in labor. You'll also learn how to advocate for your preferences using the B.R.A.I.N. decision-making method, as well as explore common medical options like induction (natural and medical), IVs, Pitocin, continuous monitoring, epidurals, and even gentle cesarean approaches.

This is the second workshop in our 3rd Trimester + Labor Prep Series. Each session stands alone, so feel free to attend the ones most relevant to your birth planning.
