The Labor Pain Class
I really appreciate Kristen's approach to labor pain. It is positive yet realistic, which is a tricky balance to achieve when teaching on this subject. She showed me birth is challenging, yet it is doable. The class gave me lots of tools to cope with the intensity of labor. And she helped me know what to expect might happen, including what I might think, feel, and do during the process. Kristen's class takes a much more relatable approach than other classes, and she speaks from a place of deep knowledge rather than just spouting information.

Done For You Labor Technique "Toolkits"
Don't know how you'll handle labor? My done-for-you natural birth playbook keeps proven labor pain techniques at your birth partner's fingertips from the first contraction to the last.
Providing a quick reference to everything you'll discover in class, this playbook covers all you need to keep labor moving, prevent complication and interventions, and even handle the hardest contractions.
You'll both feel much more confident - and labor and birth can become a treasured memory as you work together to bring your new baby into the world!
I did the Labor Pain Class and Preventing Tears, which gave me more confidence. I already knew a lot of the "physical" side of giving birth, but all of the mental and emotional prep and things to talk through with my husband helped so much. We even used some of the printouts as "cheat sheets" for him to have during the birthing time. We both felt so calm, aware, and at peace during her birth, even
when things got intense.

Best Easy Labor & Birthing Positions
Labor can be difficult if you stay in the same sitting position throughout the process. Getting and and moving not only relieves pain, it helps labor progress smoothly.
The Labor Pain class includes full-color photographs illustrating effective labor positions used by real mamas. A bonus, full-page spread walks you step-by-step through my favorite calm birthing position (I birthed a 10lb 10oz baby in this position with NO tearing!).
Fully Up-to-Date Videos & Handouts
Each video walks you through how to prepare for labor before your birthing time begins - and exactly what to do once the contractions start. Feel calm, confident, and ready to meet your beautiful baby!
My favorite part of the class was the point by point ideas for coping with labor. I felt that I walked away with tools that I could use. And I have used them in both of my birth experiences! Especially if you’ve never given birth before, it’s easy to have other women’s birth stories create fear in you. I felt like I was going to end up getting an epidural because I just couldn’t handle it. Instead, I walked into my (unexpectedly early) birth experience with a list of ideas and tools that helped me and my husband work together well. My doula wasn’t allowed in the hospital because of covid restrictions and I had to be induced because my son had a rare intestinal disorder requiring immediate surgery. In spite of all that, I still didn’t need an epidural and was able to handle the pain with what I learned in this class.
