πΆπΌThinking of booking a refresher antenatal course but not sure if you should? πΆπ½
Here at OBC we believe that refresher courses are SO valuable! With your first baby you are often inundated with information, but second, third (etc!) timeβ¦not so much! With each baby comes new joys and challenges and thatβs why itβs just as important this time round to arm & prepare yourself for these uncharted waters!
During refresher courses parents often tell me what their main concerns and worries are, these generally include:
π Feeling bad that they havenβt focused on this pregnancy as much as they did their first - whilst that is totally normal (parenthood is busy!!), they also say how nice it is to spend a few hours during their refresher course focusing on this pregnancy, baby and getting their head back into the birth & newborn space.
π Feelings of guilt (for multiple reasons) are something that comes up a lot and something we tackle head on discussing why these feelings are totally normal & how best to handle them.
π βHow on earth am I going to leave the house with two (or three, or four)??β A question I hear often!! We really delve into the practicalities of life with multiple children, sharing tips & tricks for making this transition as smooth and stress free as possible!
π Anxiety around how their first born will cope - we really look at the emotions your little ones may experience with the addition to your family & how best to handle this changing dynamic, as well as how best to introduce the siblings and prepare your first born for the pending arrival.
