When Beka attended our Healthy Pregnancy Seminar, she was eager to learn how to best prepare for childbirth. What she didn’t realise at the time was just how much those lessons would help her when the moment arrived.
Beka shared her story with us after safely giving birth to a healthy baby girl weighing 4.5 kilograms and measuring 56 centimetres. Despite the baby’s large size, Beka experienced an easy and natural delivery — something she attributes to the knowledge and techniques she learned during the seminar.
“When the contractions started, I walked up the mountain and did exercises at home. I tried to stay active by going up and down the stairs and used deep breathing techniques to manage the pain,” Beka explained.
“By the time I arrived at the maternity hospital, my cervix was already 8 cm dilated. The midwife praised me and said, ‘You came at the right time.’ I listened carefully to the doctor’s instructions and gave birth naturally and safely.”
After the birth, Beka restored her energy with orange juice — a simple but effective tip she also picked up from the seminar.
“The information I received from you was very useful and helped me prepare for childbirth. Even though my baby was large, I didn’t need a caesarean section. I breathed properly, followed the guidance, and gave birth successfully. I am deeply grateful to you!”
Beka’s story is a powerful reminder of how knowledge, preparation, and confidence can transform the experience of childbirth. Through simple, practical education, women like Beka are empowered to face one of life’s greatest moments with strength and peace.
