Antenatal Care Overview

 

what our antenatal care entails?

Did you know that nearly 6 out of 10 women experience fear and anxiety during pregnancy, especially when it comes to labor pains and childbirth?

Fortunately, Motherland Hospital offers specialized Lamaze Therapy & Education Sessions to help expecting mothers and their partners gain the confidence they need for a healthy and positive birth experience.

During these sessions, you’ll learn everything from the signs and symptoms of labor pains to different birth positions and pain relief options. And it’s not just for mothers – partners are also encouraged to attend the sessions and learn how to support their loved ones throughout the pregnancy journey.

In addition to informative discussions, Lamaze Sessions also incorporate the use of special tools like birthing balls, water tubs, and rocking chairs to help make the process as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. You’ll also receive tips on maternity wear, everyday exercise, diet, and how to handle common issues that may arise during pregnancy.

At its core, Lamaze is a comprehensive approach to childbirth that includes preparation for pregnancy, birth, and parenting. These sessions will equip you with the knowledge and skills to confidently embrace the changes that come with bringing a new life into the world.
