Pre and Post Natal Specialty Course

 Pre and Post Natal Specialty Course

A Guide for New Mothers, Partners and Their Support Team

We are excited to announce this specialty course written by Livi De Rooy and Christina Truscott.

Livi is a Perinatal Doula, who has specialized working with expectant and postpartum mothers and their families for nearly a decade, she has spent hundreds of hours supporting them on their unique prenatal, labor and birth and postpartum journeys. Together with Christina’s vast knowledge of the body and experience in the fitness industry, we present a comprehensive and loving look at pre and post natal health and fitness.

We will cover nutrition, pre-conception health, conception, issues getting pregnant, intervention, health and wellness, support teams (doula, midwife, doctor, OBGYN), gestation and the baby, labour and delivery, drugs and medication, home vs hospital birth, vaginal vs caesarean birth, pelvic floor health and issues with the pregnancy and so much more.

We will cover postnatal depression, body image and self esteem for the new mother. This course will also give you, the fitness professional, several exercises that you can give your client before, during and after the birth.

On completion of this online course, you will obtain a Pre and Post Natal specialty certification. The course includes quizzes and assignments that walk you through each of the nine chapters. 

Note: Upon order, Body Blueprint will manually connect you to the first 6 online quizzes. Because we do this manually, there is a delay from the time of order to the time you can access the quizzes. Thank you for understanding. 

What are students are saying about this course:

There is not a lot of great information out there for how to exercise safely for pregnant women and it’s been very supportive to practice what is in the book firsthand and feel the benefits. The stretches have been a gamechanger for the aches I used to get in my neck and shoulders from tight muscles and help to alleviate any back pain or restless pains I experience from time to time. Overall, this course has been wonderful, and I have enjoyed it very much. I am grateful for the ways the information has supported me during my third pregnancy and I look forward to empowering other women with the many great things that I have learned. – Hailey D.

I first of all want to say that overall – I found this course to be very useful and informative of the overall journey that a woman goes through from pre- to post- pregnancy and the amazing changes that our bodies are able to go through to make a human being. I myself am hoping to start trying for a baby in the new year – and this course has given me soo much information to help me prep for my own journey. There is so much garbage information out online that I feel having taken a course like this makes me feel more prepared with credible information. I also have very special clients that have recently told me about their pregnancy and I feel great knowing that I will be able to provide them with a better service as their Personal Trainer with this knowledge from this manual. - Gavneet Blackford, Owner, Wellden Fitness Studio, Surrey BC

It is hard to point out things from each chapter because I really felt like the course overall taught me so much about how to go about helping a new mom bounce back but also a new mom-to-be maintain and stay healthy during her journey. - Chelsea V.

I've learnt so much from this course and I've enjoyed it very much. I found it easy to read and interesting. - Theresa
