Abstract

Achieving two main objectives of antenatal education, namely optimising normal birth outcomes for low risk pregnant women and improving the quality of birth experience for all new mothers (Ogden et al., 1997/2014), is linked with a cascade of health benefits indicated in research converging on the concept of ‘primal health’ (see www.primalhealth.org). Mothers’ mental wellbeing is paramount to thriving families and lightens the burden and cost of health care in the short, medium and long terms (Brixval et al., 2014; Gamble et al., 2002)
