Birthing Better

The purpose of these talks is to inspire expectant parents to invest their precious time, energy and money into becoming skilled birthing families.

Just for... first time mothers-to-be:

All first time moms-to-be want to feel confident going into childbirth but often believe there is little they can do during pregnancy to prepare for their birth.

As a first time mother do you find yourself saying: 'Childbirth is so unknown'?

Yes, birth is always unknown even for women who are pregnant even with their 10th baby. In fact, the 5 minutes from now are unknown. We never know what is going to happen.

Your Birthing Better Pink Kit skills are about how to cope with childbirth as it unfolds AND you'll learn from the best learn-at-home resource on the market today and used by thousands of other pregnant women who have given birth.

Our job in Common Knowledge Trust is to inspire you to teach yourself the best childbirth skills you will ever have and which can be used in whatever birth you have.

Going into the unknown with your birth skills will mean you will respond to birth with skills. Go for it. You need The Pink Kit Package.

Just for... first time fathers:

As a first time dad-to-be, are you wondering what exactly you need to do  in birth?

Are you thinking to yourself 'Women have always given birth so my partner will know what to do?' Or are you thinking 'Our obstetrician or midwife will tell her what to do?'

Well, here's the bad news first. Just because women have always had babies, as pregnant women we actually know we don't just know what to do and that makes us nervous. The second bit of bad news is that our obstetrician or midwife isn't pregnant and won't be in labor ... we will so we have to have great birth skills.

And pregnant women wanted their husbands or partners to be in the birth to help us.

The GOOD news. Women and men have the same body. Do you blink? So you can learn the same set of birth skills but from the role of being a birth coach. This isn't rocket science. The skills are simple to learn and work every time.

Just like a first time mother, first time fathers can learn The Pink Kit Package skills and become great birth coaches.

This talk is to explain that all to you so you feel confident in your role as birth coach even if you are a first time dad.

Just for... mothers wanting a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC):

A successful vaginal birth after a caesarean delivery is one of the most empowering experience a birthing woman can have. For whatever reason you had a previous cesarean is not the issue really ... it's the birth skills you take into your vbac that will make the difference.

If you really, really, really are serious about achieving a vaginal birth after a caesarean delivery then you absolutely, without a doubt need The Pink Kit Package.

Without these essential birth skills, you might want, plan or hope for a vbac but your chances will be much less than if you are a skilled birthing woman. This talk is for you.

Just for ... fathers supporting a VBAC (vaginal birth after a Cesarean)

If your pregnant partner is planning a vbac, then she wants you to help her achieve this remarkable accomplishment. Childbirth is painful and requires willpower, determination and an ability to work with labor and let a large object out of the birthing body.

YOU have a vitally important role. You can learn to immediately see and hear whether your partner is becoming overwhelmed with the naturally occurring pain of contractions. If you've taught yourself The Pink Kit Package skills then you will have the skills to immediately help her regain her birthing skills.

This talk is for fathers (friend or relative) who will be the important birth coach.

Just for... women who experienced trauma from giving birth (TABS):

It's this simple. If you've been traumatized by a previous birth then you need skills to help you heal and cope with your next birth.

The Pink Kit Package can do both, even if you'll never have another baby and just want to heal.

If you are going to have another birth then you want to heal before hand and skill your way through your next birth. This talk is for you.

 

Just for... men who were present at traumatic births (TABS):

Men are just as traumatize by childbirth as women ... sometimes more because they couldn't help.

Without birth coaching skills how could you help? This talk is for you and get yourself The Pink Kit Package and learn your essential birth coaching skills. You can heal and help your pregnant partner heal as well both the birth and issues that might have arisen between the two of you.

 

Just for ... Staff birth professionals

This talk is to inspire you to grow a skilled birthing population NOT by doing The Pink Kit skills on families but coming on board and getting The Pink Kit Package to expectant families before birth.

Birth can change in your hospital when more families bring their Pink Kit skills to their birth. You'll be delighted!
