Getting ready for magical euphoria or the worst pain of your life: child birth - PART 1
Some women say childbirth is a euphoric experience, while others argue it is the worst pain of their life.
There are as many child birth stories as there are babies, but presumably all women wish and hope that their story will be a positive one.
Some parents can’t wait to start a new life with a baby, while others may worry about their life changing too much.
In this episode, we want to go through all different ways how you can prepare for this joyous occasion in Finland and what kind of support systems are offered through Neuvola and other channels.
