NEW FREE MODULE: How to Have a Positive Birth During a Pandemic
As the shape of the maternity system changes, it’s important to us at birth-ed, that our courses remain up to date and relevant. All of the content shared throughout our Online Antenatal and Hypnobirthing Course is still particularly relevant to giving birth at this time. But as some guidelines change around the way care is offered in the UK, we wanted to share some specific support for women and birth partners during this time. So, we bring you this NEW module, completely FREE- ‘How to have a positive birth during a pandemic’.
