How do I prepare my body for birth

Preparation rests on pelvic mobility, elastic muscles and breathing you'll be able to use during labour.

The third-trimester schedule is built for exactly this, and the Mindfulness section has short breathing practices: the point is to do them regularly, not to cram them in the final week.

The same place holds lectures from obstetricians — how to prepare and what happens after birth.

Anything to do with how your birth will go and your own restrictions belongs with the doctor caring for your pregnancy.
