CLASS: TRANSFORMATION THROUGH CHILDBIRTH
Cost $185
Birth is a loving, exciting, RAW, REAL and sometimes challenging transition in life.
It requires a surrender, an openness, a heart-felt realness that knowledge alone WILL interfere with.
This day is a different take on the traditional childbirth classes. It emphasizes LOVE, ritual and hope and blends it with the stages and physiology of labor and birth, staying connected as a couple, support (who to have at the birth, who not to invite), and planning for postpartum. And more...
This is a day to fall in love with your partner (again), with Very Special Emphasis on partner preparation, acknowledging their vulnerability in this process and working to empower them and their emotional/spiritual role in this process. Learn comfort measures for birth, confront fears in a safe environment, have a LOT of fun surrounded by other couples on their journey.
CLASS: postpartum and newborn class
Cost $125
The anticipation, newness and preparation for pregnancy, labor and birth are so all-consuming that often we forget that there is a FOURTH trimester.
Postpartum! And that our new baby is someone we have to learn about and relate to. It SOUNDS easy~
Then there is the complexity of feeding our baby...AND ourselves! All while managing our changing body, mood and relationships.

FOURTH TRIMESTER GROUP
FREE TO ATTEND!
At Gentle Landing Birth Center, we offer a weekly postpartum meetup for anyone and everyone, regardless of where you had a baby! These meet-ups are vital for helping navigate the immense changes of motherhood. They offer an opportunity to meet and share experiences, celebrate milestones, and find validation for the normal struggles of postpartum. It's a place where a crying baby is not a source of embarrassment but a shared experience, fostering a sense of community and belonging.
Beyond emotional support, these meetups serve as a valuable platform for education and sharing practical advice. New moms can learn from each other about everything from breastfeeding challenges and sleep schedules to navigating postpartum mood shifts. The shared wisdom and diverse perspectives offer practical solutions and reassurance in an environment that is nonjudgmental and empathetic.
