Natural birth matters. After all, it's the way our bodies were meant to give birth, and we're meant to experience it with awareness. While we're grateful for technology when it saves moms and babies, routine interventions and medication can also lead to a cascade of complications.
Informed, natural birth is the goal of The Best of Natural Birth. Jessica English is a former certified Bradley Method instructor, but in her years of teaching she discovered a passion for a wider range of techniques that work beautifully for moms, dads, partners and babies.
The Best of Natural Birth isn't a rigid method—it's a toolbox. A toolbox of natural birthing techniques that you won't find anywhere else, from an independent instructor who works only for you. As of July 2008, 90 percent of Jessica's students who've birthed vaginally have done so without pain medication—that includes first-time parents, VBAC moms, and even several third-time parents who just wanted to find a new way to birth. Less than 15 percent of her students have had c-sections. The techniques work.
You're starting an amazing journey. We would love the chance to share some tools that will help you make the most of it.
Sept. Refresher Class
Jessica will be offering a three-class refresher series for experienced parents in September '08. To qualify, you must have either had a natural birth with a previous child, or attended a full series of independent natural birth classes.
