Welcome! I’m Donna Sizemore, a Registered Nurse for more than 20 years. After 12 years as a childbirth educator, I produced my class as a DVD that you can experience at home.
Now all of the information you would learn in a private childbirth class is available for much less than the price of a class. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Donna Sizemore and the Get Ready For Birth team believe that a natural, unmedicated, birth is a great option for many women. In addition to preparing hundreds of couples to give birth without medication, all four of Donna’s children were delivered naturally. This combination of professional and personal experience makes her the perfect Natural Childbirth teacher.
Our DVD has an entire section devoted to techniques that will help with Natural Childbirth as well as interviews with new parents who have recently been through that process. Order the DVD for more information on delivering your child naturally, or read a few of Donna’s thoughts on the process below or on her blog.
“The onset of labor can be a very exciting and emotional time for a woman. The desire to ‘get this over with’ can combine with the fear of an intensely physical process to create a pretty intimidating process. She may be ready to have her pregnancy over with so that she can begin the journey of parenting while at the same time she experiences fear at the intensely physical process she now faces. Regardless of how a woman’s labor begins, welcoming it with optimism and joy helps relieve the anxiety and tension. It’s a tremendous undertaking…hence the name “labor”.”
“However, fear doesn’t have to be the motivation for seeking medical intervention during labor. By preparing yourself for the process you really can attempt a natural labor!”
