Our society has deeply conditioned us to fear birth. We’ve medicalized, dramatized, and put it behind closed doors. No wonder there is so much misinformation.

But what if I were to tell you that the more you fear childbirth the more painful and potentially traumatizing it will be?

Luckily, the vicious fear cycle of labor can be broken.

Knowledge and understanding go hand in hand to help not only make labor a positive experience but a beautiful one.

Fear dies when we understand what is happening to our bodies. Having informed consent, and a voice in your experience, matters.
