Research shows that independent, evidence-based antenatal classes, such as One Mama Midwife, can reduce fear, anxiety, interventions and postpartum post traumatic stress disorder. Fear during labour can negatively impact your mental state, slow the progress of your labour, lead to more operative births and increase the rates of negative birth experiences (Gün Kakaşçı, et al., 2023).
Furthermore, attending Antenatal Classes has been shown to increase self-confidence in the labour room as well as in the postpartum period (Gün Kakaşçı, et al., 2023).

Knowing all of your available options can significantly improve your birth experience. Because Caesarean Birth is just as much birth as any other!
