Labour And Birth Antenatal Classes

Expecting a baby? Our half day labour and birth antenatal class is designed specifically for LGBTQ+ parents to be. The class coves everything from the stages of labour and pain relief options to birth, postnatal recovery, and the role of non-birth parents.

 Our class goes beyond a standard antenatal class. You'll learn the same evidence based content covered in mainstream classes, but through a queer lens that reflects your family - inclusive language, the realities of navigating the healthcare system as an LGBTQ+ parent, and space to connect with other Rainbow Families.


What we'll cover:

• Pregnancy, hormones, and signs of labour

• Pain relief, positions, and decision-making during birth

• Caesarean, induction, and assisted birth

• Postnatal recovery and the first hours with your baby

• Peer support, mental health, and finding affirming care


Upcoming classes:

Classes are offered quarterly in person in Sydney or in a dedicated online class.

Tickets are $40 per person, however if cost is a barrier for you to attend please contact us and we can waive the booking fee.
