Doula training 2024
Glimpses from module 3 of our doula training.

This module we dive deep into birth stories, birth experiences and our own human blueprint from birth.

These women are so brave, wise, warm, exploring and learning. We are in awe of them all and how they show up for them selves and in the group💜🙏

The intention from us, as trainers is to share our embodied experience from our many years of working with pregnant, labouring and birthing women.
Sharing from being there, in the rooms, in the situations, in the midst of all the emotions, smells, sounds and waves that is birth.

We share from our embodied doula practice and it feels ever so important and joyful to pass on tools, knowledge, practices, experience that will make these doulas able to make a difference in birth culture.

Love from @copenhagendoulas.dk and @doulakristinekohlmetz

Workshop for dad’s to be - 26 of May at 10:00-13:00
Why ?
Because your journey matters too.
Because knowing where and when to hold your wife head and hands matters.
Because knowing which part to massage and add pressure matters.
Because knowing what birth looks like before you experience the birth of your baby matters and it will settle your nervous system.
Because knowing just a little about the post Partum period matters to you as a family and to your wife.

Posted @withregram • @foraeldreogfoedsel KRITIK AF SUNDHEDSSTYRELSENS ANBEFALINGER OM FØDETILBUD

I dag var forkvinde Mie Ryborg-Larsen i studiet hos Radio 24syv for at give et brugerperspektiv på flere eksperters kritik af hvordan Sundhedsstyrelsen (SST) anbefaler at gravide informeres om fordele og ulemper ved hjemme- og klinikfødsler.

Specifikt drejer det sig om, at der i SSTs anbefalinger for organisering af fødetilbud (udgivet i 2021) står, at førstegangsfødende med en ukompliceret graviditet og forventet ukompliceret fødsel, bør informeres om, at der kan være en forøget risiko for sjældne, men alvorlige fødselsrelaterede komplikationer for barnet, ved planlagt hjemmefødsel. Samme information skal gives til dem, der ønsker at føde på en fritstående fødeklinik, ifølge SSTs anbefalinger.

Som påpeget af de to eksperter, seniorforsker Ole Olsen og professor emeritus Jes Søgaard, der begge medvirker i indslaget, tager den specifikke anbefaling udgangspunkt i et snævert evidensgrundlag, hvor det kun er ét ud af mange studier, som påviser en øget risiko hos førstegangsfødende. Og den er slet ikke påvist, når det kommer til klinikfødsler. Derfor giver det ingen mening at man skal informere de fødende om den samme risiko ved det valg.

Både vi og de interviewede eksperter, mener det er et problem, at landets øverste sundhedsmyndighed instruerer fagfolk i at informere gravide og fødende på et misvisende grundlag.

Anbefalingerne bærer præg af en gennemgående tone af at alternativer til fødsel på hospitalet alene bør tilbydes på baggrund af ønske fra den gravide. De forpligter ikke de sundhedsprofessionelle til at informere og rådgive om fødetilbud af egen drift og understøtter ikke, at gravide og fødende får bedst mulig information og rådgivning ift. valg af fødested.

Why should you become a doula? Birthing a child i

Why should you become a doula?

Birthing a child is sacred.
Birth is vulnerable and transformative, for both mother, baby and family.

The quality of care received throughout can affect long term physiological health and mental well-being, well beyond early postpartum for all involved.

Doulas are important, more than ever, to create sustainable change in the modern birth culture, by bridging the gaps in our healthcare system.

Doulas promote (w)holistic health by providing continuity of care, qualified support, education, perspectives, reassurance and the comfort of presence.

Trained and educated doulas offer a guide to build resilience in physiological, mental and emotional wellbeing of the mother, baby and new family.

How a woman is cared for during pregnancy, birth and postpartum significantly influences not only her birth, but also how she feels about the experience for years to come.

You should become a doula because you want to work with women and you want to work around birth. As a doula you are a part of a unique experience that matters and changes lives.

We look forward to share wisdom, teach and support you in becoming a solid human heart to change the paradigm of birth.

In our doula training you will learn from 3 experienced doulas, who for years have supported women and families in labour and during pregnancy.

This is a training with emphasis on the practical skills not just theory on what is optimal and ideal, but a grounded experience into how to actually use and apply our wisdom of birth.

We know that this requires a personal inner work to be present for your clients while still taking care of yourself.
And as a doula it is foundational in our relationship with a new mother, that we know how to take care of our own nervous system, emotions and ideals.

In our doula training we explore:
how you see birth, how you feel about authorities or the system, how you deal with intensity, with the scenario when things get out of balance and how to be a ressource to your client in this.

During our doula training 2024 you will become familiar with:

🍊 the foundations of being a doula, learn how to support clients and your community with an integrated understanding of birth physiology

🍊 emerge with the knowledge of how you as a doula can inform, guide and hold space for your clients, so THEY can navigate and have the birth experience of life

Furthermore you will:

🍊understand how you can make a significant change while promoting health and wellbeing in pregnancy and birth

🍊know the blueprint of birth and early postpartum

🍊be equipped to offer clients a framework for understanding birth and early postpartum

🍊study and practise the requirements for supporting women and families through birth

🍊practise how to be present and rooted in your core and personal integrity

🍊feel prepared, confident and excited about how you as a doula can make a significant impact in today’s birth culture.
