Labour and Birth Support

With so many options, opinions, and seemingly conflicting information online, preparing for birth can feel overwhelming at times. Grace's goal is to provide inclusive, trauma-informed, compassionate care that centres you within your story.

Labour and birth support covers the following areas:

• Birth goals and strategies

• Birthing after trauma

• Optimal fetal positioning

• Comfort measures for labour

• Induction of labour

• Cesarean section

• Preparing for postpartum and infant feeding

Labour and birth support can look like:

• Customized education and resource sharing

• Helping to prepare questions for your healthcare provider

• Helping to clearly define goals and paths to individual success

• Aiding with problem solving and decision making

• Offering suggestions for physical comfort and pain management during pregnancy, labour, and birth

• Discussing strategies for building self-advocacy into your care plan

• Ensuring continuity of support throughout your pregnancy, birth, and immediate postpartum period

• Validating emotions, answering questions, and centring your experiences
