# Preparation 

Preparation During pregnancy, not only does your belly grow, but also the preparation for the birth. Everyone does this in their own way. One reads a lot and wants to know exactly what can happen, while the other prefers to trust in the moment itself. Both ways are good. It’s about what suits you. Many parents experience that a course can help them approach the birth with more calm and confidence. You will get explanations about what to expect, learn how to cope with contractions, and discover how your partner can support you in this. The pregnancy courses we cooperate with are provided by www.bbbevallen.nl . This can be a nice way to prepare together and gain more confidence in the process. Practical preparation In addition to mental preparation, there are also a number of practical things that are helpful to arrange on time. This provides peace of mind when labor begins. For example, think about preparing a suitcase with items for yourself, your partner, and the baby in advance. On our website, you will find a separate overview of what is useful to take with you. It is also nice to have the birth kit at home and to know where important items are located when we come by. During the check-ups, we will go through this together with you. We will discuss what you need, when you can call us, and what to expect when labor begins.
