Coping with contractions

Although for many women their biggest fear, labour can be a positive experience.

It is a physiological process, and doesn’t always needs to be medicalized. Feeling confident, safe and comfortable are basic conditions to pursue this. ​

Already during pregnancy, you can start to prepare your body (see package Get informed) and mind (see Pregnancy relaxation).
