If you're the one who'll be standing beside her, you've probably noticed: the shelves are full of books for the pregnant woman, and next to nothing for the person holding her hand. Most of what does exist boils down to "stay calm and stay out of the way". That isn't good enough, and it isn't true.
You have a real job to do, and when you do it well, she feels safer and the whole birth goes better. This is the guide that shows you how.
Everything you need on the day
- Your three jobs in labour, on a single page you can grab in a panic
- What to say, and what never to say, during a surge
- Breathing, visualisations and a full relaxation script to read aloud
- Birth positions you can suggest, and physically support her into
- Affirmations to say to her when she needs them most
- How to advocate for her, with ready made questions and the B.R.A.I.N. framework
- A complete hospital bag checklist for her, for you and for baby
- What to do in the first hours and the early days at home
- Australian support services for partners, because your wellbeing matters too

Founder of Bright Births, birth preparation educator and qualified hypnobirthing teacher on Sydney's Northern Beaches. I've spent years getting couples genuinely ready for birth, and the birth partner is the half almost everyone forgets. This is the guide I always wished they had.
Good to know
Is this just for dads?
Not at all. It's written for every birth partner: dads, partners of every kind, mums, sisters, best friends.
When will I get it?
The moment you buy. It lands in your inbox and your account straight away, and it's yours to keep.
We've already done a hospital class. Is this still useful?
Yes. Hospital classes tell you what to expect. This tells the birth partner what to actually do, which is the part almost everyone is missing.
Can I print it?
Absolutely. It's designed to print beautifully and live in the hospital bag, as well as read on any screen.
Walk in ready.
You don't need to be perfect on the day. You just need to be present, prepared and on her side. This is how.
