These seminars are a wealth of information for those who just aren't sure where to start, or are overwhelmed by the decisions about types care and where to birth that need to be made in early pregnancy. You'll walk away with a clear idea of the options available to you and the pros and cons of each, as well as knowing how to move forward when you've chosen a model of care and birth place. The seminar is presented by maternity service providers, childbirth experts, and mums and dads with first hand experience of the birthing options available in Brisbane. The information is balanced and untainted by the agendas that so often filter through discussions about birthing options.
