Antenatal Education and Support
Birth Trauma Australia created ThinkNatal™️ Education for parents, covering topics that antenatal education often leaves out or doesn’t cover well. We built it together with parents and the clinicians involved in maternity care, including midwives, obstetricians, pelvic health physiotherapists and mental health clinicians.
Welcome to ThinkNatal™️
We believe pregnancy, birth and postpartum care should be collaborative, involve different types of health professionals working together, and be tailored to each person, taking into account their life experiences, values, wants, needs and physical health. We encourage the health professionals we work with to take the same approach.
