Childbirth: Beyond the basics
This one-day workshop consists of discussions and interactive exercises that cover the signs of labor, the normal progression of labor and birth, techniques for coping with pain, how your partner can help you during labor, and when to call your doctor or midwife. In addition, we will discuss some of the more common childbirth complications and how they might be handled. Attending this class also provides a great opportunity to meet other expectant parents.
