Birth Preparation

in English

Breathing - Relaxation -
Mental preparation

- in Göteborg

With Bodil Frey. I am a Childbirth Educator and a Doula, working i Göteborg with Antenatal Classes and Doula Trainings.


Bodil Frey

The aim of childbirth preparation is to provide parents with the knowledge and means to enable them to take an active part in the birth of their baby.

I try to boost the expectant mother´s confidence in her body and her ability to give birth.

I encourage the father to involve himself in the process of pregnancy and birth, and find out how he can be supportive.


Topics can include:

- information about the process of birth and the birthing care in Sweden
- practical use of relaxation and breathing in labour
- pain relief and pain-coping methods
- beneficial positions
- the role of the birth partner
- talking over one´s thoughts, fears and hopes concerning birth and parenthood
- exceptions to normal birth, i. e. ceasarean birth
- the newborn baby, breastfeeding
- the first few days after birth
All are welcome, with or without a partner.

What I can offer:

Parent Groups
Two or three evening classes, depending on the number of participants.
Fee: 1950 kr per couple, 1 500 per person based on a minimum of three couples.

One to One private sessions.
Held preferably in the parent or couples own home. These can be arranged for people who cannot, or prefer not to choose a group setting.
Fee: 1 500 kr for a session, about 2 1/2 hours.
