- Childbirth is a normal, natural process, not a medical event. By attending a 6-week series of comprehensive, independent childbirth classes, you will learn the importance of:
- Staying as healthy as possible, through eating a well-balanced diet with plenty of protein, exercising regularly, and avoiding anything which may be harmful to the mother and growing baby.
- Understanding the physical, psychological, spiritual and emotional aspects of the birth process so that you can work with your body to give birth.
- Learning how relaxation and slow abdominal breathing will minimize any pain during labor and maximize the effectiveness of the miraculous uterine muscle.
- Choosing a caregiver who is supportive of your birth preferences and developing a birth plan to promote cooperation and trust between you and your caregivers.
- Having a caring person with you during labor to provide physical, emotional and informational support.
- Working with your caregiver to protect the health of the mother and baby throughout pregnancy and during labor, while minimizing the need for unnecessary medical interventions and medications.
