Postpartum Preparation Workshop - July 5 - Brunswick
Postpartum Workshop and Fourth Trimester Planning in Melbourne
Location: Balam Balam Place, 15 Phoenix St, Brunswick VIC 3056
Date: Sunday 1 March
Most antenatal classes prepare you for labour.
Few truly prepare you for postpartum.
Birth may be one day, but recovery, identity shifts and newborn care unfold over weeks and months. Many parents leave traditional childbirth education feeling confident about contractions, yet uncertain about their healing body, sleep deprivation, feeding challenges or how to ask for help.
This dedicated Postpartum Workshop in Melbourne is designed to fill that gap.
Across one immersive day in Brunswick, you will receive comprehensive, evidence informed postnatal education focused entirely on the fourth trimester. You will leave with clarity, practical tools and a personalised plan for life after birth.
What we cover:
The Postpartum Landscape
Explore cultural expectations, modern pressures and the evolving identity of new parenthood. Reframe recovery as a vital, supported phase rather than something to simply “get through”.
What Babies Really Need
Understand newborn physiology, feeding foundations, closeness, regulation and attunement. Learn what is normal and what often creates unnecessary stress.
Your Postpartum Body
Learn what to expect physically after birth, including bleeding, pelvic floor recovery, hormonal shifts and emotional changes. Explore how rest, nourishment and protection support healing.
Rest, Recovery and Newborn Sleep
Examine realistic postpartum rest strategies, newborn sleep rhythms and gentle ways to manage interrupted sleep without unrealistic expectations.
Nourishment and Sustainable Rhythms
Discover healing foods, feeding support options and how to create simple daily rhythms that reduce overwhelm.
Relationships and Boundaries
Prepare for changes in identity, intimacy and communication. Learn practical tools to hold boundaries with care and protect your recovery space.
Support Systems and Professional Care
Map your village. Understand the role of postpartum doulas, maternal child health nurses and other local health supports in Melbourne.
Integration and Personal Planning
Journal, reflect and create your own tailored Postpartum Plan so you feel organised, supported and ready.
The day also includes:
A prenatal yoga session to support nervous system regulation and embodied preparation
A Traditional Chinese Medicine session exploring postpartum energetics and supportive practices
This Postpartum Workshop is ideal for pregnant women, birthing people and their partners who want deeper preparation than standard antenatal classes provide.
If you are searching for postpartum classes in Melbourne, fourth trimester education or practical postnatal planning, this workshop offers holistic, realistic and compassionate preparation for the season after birth.
