Birth Education for a Legacy of Empowerment | My Essential Birth
Saturday Jun 19, 2021
Saturday Jun 19, 2021
Today we talk to Cortney and Stephanie, certified childbirth educators and doulas, and creators of My Essential Birth -- an evidence-based and holistic online childbirth education course -- as well as The Pregnancy and Childbirth Made Easy Podcast. They are dedicated to bringing the best that the birth world has to offer into one place so that new parents have the best possible head-start in preparing for their birth.
We talk about how both Cortney and Stephanie got into the world of childbirth education and the different kinds of birth experiences they've had that have influenced their desire to help others. We also talk about the problems they had with other birth courses that led to them wanting to create their own that didn't feel quite so rigid in their expectations for what an "ideal" pregnancy and birth looks like.
We once again cover one of our favorite topics: the importance of education in helping birthing parents to plan for the birth that they want and protect their choices against institutions and providers. We talk about the reasons that new moms seek out My Essential Birth, and how they come out knowing much more than they had originally thought they needed, and how the course's integration of everything the birth world has to offer can help them know what to seek out more information on.
We talk about the first things that a pregnant mother can do to set herself up for success, including finding the right provider and doing certain daily exercises to prepare their bodies for labor. We talk about getting clear on what sort of birth experience you want so that the experience and reality aren't dissonant. We also talk about preparing to negate and avoid birth trauma or to heal previous trauma.
Finally we discuss the importance of birth education to our legacy, and how empowered births can shape generations. We talk about how the sons and daughters of mothers who have had their lives changed by positive birth will go forward and improve the birth experiences in their own lives.
