That in-between.
The wondering.
The “Is this it?”
The “Do I call someone?”
The “Should I go back to sleep?” or “Do I wake them up?”
This free class was created to guide you through exactly that space.
A calm, clear, grounded walkthrough of early labor, what it is, what it’s not, and what to actually do with those first contractions.
So you can move through this phase with confidence, not confusion.
The difference between true labor and practice contractions, without dismissing what your body’s doing.
What it means when things start… and then stop.
The exact moment when it’s time to pay attention, and when it’s time to rest.
How to preserve your energy for what’s ahead (and why most parents burn out too soon).
How to know when it’s time to call your doula, your midwife, your partner, or no one yet.
Why we think “false labor” is a terrible term, and what’s actually happening when your body is “just practicing.”
You’re preparing for your first birth and want something more intuitive than a timing app.
It assumes you want to feel calm and ready when it begins.
And yet... most classes don’t teach you what to do in it. They jump to active labor. Hospital bags. Transition. Pushing.
But the start of labor isn’t something to skip over. It’s the foundation.
It’s where you realize: this is really happening.
It’s where your body and baby are starting to talk to each other.
It’s where you need rest, rhythm, and reassurance, not a stopwatch and pressure.
Your instincts. Your baby. Your breath. Your pace.
You won’t miss it. That’s what I always tell my clients.
But you can miss the chance to enter it with clarity.
Let’s change that.
