Prenatal Course Berlin
The bonding-oriented birth preparation course is aimed at mothers and their children aged between approximately 3 and 8 who are expecting a sibling in the coming weeks or months.
The course includes an online session via Zoom on Wednesday for pregnant women (without children) and a session on Friday for the expectant siblings accompanied by their mothers. The course includes all craft materials and drinks.
We will talk together about how you can explain your current pregnancy to your older child and how you can prepare for the birth and postpartum period so that the start of your “new” family life goes smoothly. We will also look at challenging situations and behaviors that can often arise in the first year.
The course is designed to empower you to recognize the needs of your older child and help you find your way more easily in dealing with the new sibling constellation—between great love and deep crisis. In between, there will be gentle movement and relaxation exercises. Please wear comfortable clothing for this.
We will continue with the children on Saturday: we will sing and there will be a playful story about birth that is appropriate for the children's age. We will also talk about what babies can do and need. Of course, there will be breaks and movement games in between. If you and your child feel like it, your child can paint your round baby bump in wonderful colors that are suitable for children and “belly-friendly.”
Participation is recommended from the 20th week of pregnancy onwards. Ideally, the child should already have a connection to the baby, e.g., the baby bump is visible.
