How a Few Minutes a Day Gave Me a Perfect Natural Birth

Around 11:45pm Galen made a safe, easy arrival into the world. His birth was fast, efficient, and exhilerating - I had no complications, no tearing (or episiotomy), no lasting pain, and felt on top of the world.

Galen's amazing birth wasn't "just luck." It was the perfect result of using the Pink Kit childbirth class.

Most childbirth classes all slick packaging - no substance. I can read all the basics in any book on pregnancy - and so can you. It's frustrating that they don't just teach you how to give birth.

Finally, a Childbirth Class that Teaches You to Get the Baby Out

I like to call the Pink Kit a "teach yourself to give birth kit," because when you work through it you'll know how to handle labor and birth. The info in the kit has been collected from many women, couples, families, and care providers by the Common Knowledge Trust, a not-for-profit committed to getting childbirth skills to women around the world. (Quotes from PK families are sprinkled throughout this review!)

The complete package includes:

  • A DVD covering anatomy, birth positions, stages of labor, and more
  • Audio Tracks demonstrating breath and a walk through for the Internal Work
  • 3 Comprehensive Books (detailed more below)
  • Digital Download Option for instant access

The three books cover many different skills for labor and birth, so you can effectively deal with pain and any procedures you choose or need.

"I did it! After 3 previous ceasareans, I gave birth vaginally to my daughter. It was the greatest challenge of my life. I tell everyone about The Pink Kit." ~PK Mom

New Focus

  • Detailed info on breath during labor, because breathing helps you stay in control (even in an intense labor)
  • Complete overview of common birthing language. This helps you understand each other exactly in labor - so you can get effective help quickly.
  • Reveals why touch is vital to labor pain relief (and how to determine what will work for you)
  • 6 tips for a positive birth experience... you won't find most of these elsewhere :)

What Does "Trust Your Body" Mean, Anyways?

Have you been told to "trust your body" - but feel you don't know exactly what that means? The DVD and book Essential Preparations for you Birthing Body help you discover what it means to "know and trust your body" - your own body (not just some anatomical picture on the pages of a book).

Here's what you'll discover:

  • Step-by-Step walkthrough of the pelvis (no other childbirth class teaches this)
  • Gain the confidence to birth your baby vaginally - because you'll know that your baby can fit through your pelvis.
  • Specific techniques to open your pelvis for a slow-moving or "stuck" baby (avoid an unwanted c-section)
  • Step-by-step video demonstration for all techniques, so you can see just how they work.
  • Overview of all labor and birth positions, so you can find the ones that will move your baby through easily -(and help you deal with any pain you experience)
  • A detailed "playbook" your birth partner can refer to during labor, so you'll be able to use the positions you've learned to help your baby be born.

The Companion Guide is written just for your birth partner. Your partner will be able to quickly thumb through for ideas to comfort you, help you stay in control and on top of labor, and to help your baby move down effectively for a smooth, healthy birth.

"This stuff is so, so easy for guys to understand! Its sort of like plumbing; if the baby gets stuck, just move this bit here and off we go again. Very practical, hands on information. It should be called 'The Birth Toolkit for Men" ~PK Dad

Stay in Control of Your Birth

Imagine calmly dealing with each contraction as it comes, and completely relaxing after... ...Imagine if you could stay on top of labor even if your hospital or birthing center requires certain procedures

Managing Skills Makes That Reality

  • Pain relief strategies you can apply right away during labor.
  • How to stay on top of discomfort and avoid giving in to pain.
  • How to work with required procedures and still have the birth you want.
  • Quotes and tips from real moms and birth partners - so you'll have "tried and true" ideas to fall back on.

One of your audio lessons demonstrates effective breathing during an actual birth. Pink Kit breathing techniques are one of the best ways to stay "in control" during labor. Even if you experience strong pains, your breathing techniques can instantly bring control back, allowing you to see the pain through without requiring interventions.

The Internal Work

The Internal Work is a quick, easy technique you use daily as you wait for your baby. You'll greatly enhance your body's ability to open for your baby, and to relax as your baby is born.

The reward of this simple technique - your baby's head will move smoothly through the toned, flexible muscle groups of your pelvis. Your perineal tissues will stretch around your baby's head as it crowns and is born - resulting in minimal stress and allowing you to avoid bad tears and episiotomy.

Pink Kit techniques let you effectively move your baby through your pelvis, down the birth canal, and out across the perineum with as little trauma as possible. My own baby, Galen, came out smoothly and easily. Despite his rapid birth (just one push!) I had no tearing or abrasions, and no pain at all after. I have the Pink Kit to thank for his awesome birth.

Further Information

Pink Kit skills are unique - you can't get them anywhere else (this isn't a repeat of your antenatal classes!) But the Pink Kit covers only childbirth skills. You won't find information on prenatal nutrition and other pregnancy issues. Be prepared to research healthy pregnancy outside the kit (the nutrition articles on this site are a great start ;) )

There's a benefit to leaving out some of the usual "childbirth class" material - the entire Pink Kit is packed with information to help you give birth to your baby - smoothly, effectively, and in control (even if you opt for a hospital birth or some medical procedures).

I've had some women tell me they worried they would find out their pelvis is "too narrow." With the Pink Kit it doesn't matter. I'm really "narrow" between my sit bones - but I was able to use my Pink Kit skills to get a good sized baby (8lb, 3oz - 3.71kg) out of my pelvis smoothly and easily (before my midwife even arrived to help!) The kit is going to help you discover the best positions for you to birth in.

All this information can seem a little overwhelming at first. Thankfully, once you dive into the material and go little-by-little it all comes together.

You'll need to spend some time on the Pink Kit (it's just like any other childbirth class - except you actually find out how to give birth)

Think about it - if you could spend just a little time each day and have a excellent, empowering birth where your healthy baby is born smoothly - leaving you feeling in control, energized, and happy (even if you do give birth in the hospital)... would that birth be worth a few minutes daily?

"I had 3 wonderful births at home with the most wonderfully supportive husband and midwife. I was hesitant to even look at The Pink Kit to start with. I've got to say, we all learned so much and our next birth was even more conscious and intimate." ~PK Mom

"What If..."

I do get emails asking "but what if a c-section is really needed?" You still need to prepare for birth. Imagine going into birth confident, in control, and with the knowledge you need to give birth... ...and you do really need an emergency cesarean section - you'll celebrate your baby's birth knowing it for the miracle it is... You won't feel forced into interventions or defeated because you "just couldn't take it."

You can either use a childbirth class that takes a lot of time and doesn't teach you to give birth, or you can ignore preparing for birth and hope for the best (maybe facing pain you can't deal with, or intervention you don't understand, or a transfer or cesarean section you didn't want)... ...Or you can act on my advice and use the few minutes a day it takes to prepare for a successful birth with a childbirth class that works.

"The book, video and audiotape helped me to understand my body structure and what I could do to progress and manage my labour. I performed the internal massage twice a day for about 7 weeks and did not require any sutures this time, (I had had a second degree tear with my first baby.)" ~PK Mom

"With the knowledge provided, we were aware throughout the labour of what my body was doing. With my husband also so aware, he was able to really assist me (not stand there freaking out). That was a big bonus. I honestly believe I would have had a birth with intervention if I had not done The Pink Kit." ~PK Mom
