🤰 Expectant Mothers and Support Persons Welcome! 🤱
This class offers a realistic, hospital-based look at the childbirth experience for you and your support person. Rather than focusing heavily on specific techniques, we aim to provide a supportive space where you can learn what to expect and feel more confident about the journey ahead.
Topics include:
- Pregnancy Basics: What to expect in the final weeks.
- Labor & Delivery: Understanding the stages of labor and how it typically progresses.
- Comfort Techniques: A brief introduction to helpful strategies like movement, positioning, and relaxation.
- Medical Procedures: Common interventions such as inductions, epidurals, and cesarean birth.
- Cesarean Birth: What to expect if a surgical delivery becomes necessary.
- Newborn Care: What happens in the first hours after birth, including skin-to-skin and initial assessments.
- Postpartum Recovery: Physical and emotional changes after birth, and tips for navigating the early days.
This class is ideal for those seeking a straightforward, informative, and encouraging approach to childbirth preparation in a hospital setting.
