Childbirth Preparation (3 Classes)
Moms: Do you fear childbirth? Or the Pain?
Dads: Do you want to be involved but have no idea what to do?
Do you both want a positive experience?
These classes will prepare you for what to expect in labor and make sure that you have the information to have the safest and most rewarding birth experience possible. You will learn about nutrition, pregnancy exercises, relaxation techniques to manage pain, positions for labor, how your support person can best help you and also explore your views/fears about the pain of labor.
What you can expect from our classes is to come away with confidence that you have the knowledge and the skills to have a positive birth experience.
We will also cover how to prepare for the postpartum time including breastfeeding and ways to avoid postpartum depression. This class is interactive and fun as you explore the options for labor and birth.
