"This workshop has brought me and my spouse closer as partners in this pregnancy journey and helped mentally prepared us of the possibilities of emergency birth interventions. The best parts for us as a couple was the healing of some of the doubts and insecurities. Our love is stronger for each other and our baby. The three of us are in new beautiful harmony and ready to continue to build this bond."
