Group Childbirth Class
There are so many options for childbirth classes, so how do you choose?
Bradley, Lamaze, Hypnobirthing, o my! So many options! Non-medicated or maybe you want all the interventions? Waiting to go into labor naturally or maybe the plan is to induce...
The point is... you shouldn't have to choose one type of class and hope you chose well. You need to know everything before you can make those decisions.
This is where we step in! A comprehensive birth class that dives into everything about later pregnancy, labor and delivery, and the early post-partum, including walking you through all the interventions offered by most hospital systems. We talk the mechanics of labor, pain intervention strategies (both medical and not), and even how to make sure you know how to protect your pelvic floor.
Next 7 Weeks Series Starts Thursday, January 25th 6-8 PM
Cost: $350 per couple
