Workshop FAQ

As we are eagerly awaiting the date of our workshop, here are some commonly asked questions to help you prepare!
What stage of pregnancy should I be in?

Most pregnant people attend this workshop in their third trimester, so that the techniques are fresh in their minds, however please feel free to attend in any trimester.

We generally don't recommend booking within 3 weeks of your due date in case your baby decides to come a little early (however please let us know if that's the case as we may be able to slot you in at the last minute!).
