Not all labor starts dramatically — and many first-time parents spend hours (or days) wondering:
“Is this really labor?”
This class is designed to help you feel more prepared, more confident, and less exhausted before active labor begins. We’ll focus heavily on early labor, prodromal labor, rest strategies, coping techniques, and how to avoid burning out too soon.
Perfect for first-time parents, but helpful for anyone wanting a smoother start to labor. Partners are encouraged to attend.
Topics We’ll Cover:
• Signs labor may be starting
• Prodromal labor vs early labor vs active labor
• When to stay home vs when to leave
• Rest strategies & energy conservation
• Positions and movement for comfort/progress
• Oxytocin vs adrenaline in labor
• Practical coping tools for long early labor
• Fear–Tension–Pain cycle
Includes:
• Interactive labor scenarios/discussion
• Take-home handout packet
