COST: $65

Class is from 9:00a-5:00p

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

We emphasize a family-centered approach to birth options, partner coaching, and informed choices. You and your support person will learn about coping with common discomforts of pregnancy and labor through positioning, massage, breathing techniques, visualization and total body relaxation. Various medications are explained and practiced, so you can determine which techniques work best for you. 

Learn how to differentiate true from false labor, what to do if your “water” breaks, warning signs that require a call to your physician, and reasons why internal fetal monitoring, induction of labor, instrumentation or cesarean birth may be necessary. 

Additional class information:

  • Infant care is not covered in this convenient one-session class due to time constraints.
  • The price includes the pregnant woman and one support person.
  • Wear comfortable clothes and bring a blanket/mat and two pillows for use with floor exercises.
  • Please feel free to bring any snacks/meals or drinks to class.
  • Due to distractions to others, we ask that you not bring children to class.
