What to expect
In our birth preparation course in Berlin-Kreuzberg, we prepare you thoroughly for birth and the first weeks with your baby. Over four evening sessions, we talk about the onset and progression of labour, what happens in the delivery room and the different options for pain relief. A central part of the course is the role of the birth companion, as the course is designed for pregnant people together with their partner or another person they trust.
Through practical exercises, you will learn breathing techniques, relaxation methods and different birth positions. We also cover the newborn, the postpartum period, breast/chestfeeding and the first latch in the delivery room. Possible interventions such as a caesarean section or a vacuum-assisted birth are part of the course as well.
Beyond sharing knowledge, the course is above all a space for your open questions, fears and uncertainties. All parents-to-be and family constellations are welcome. This way, you go into birth feeling well informed and confident.
Costs and health insurance coverage
Health insurance covers the course fee for the pregnant person. The fee for the birth companion is €150 and is partly reimbursable.
