Childbirth Education Class

Childbirth Education Class

• Understand the birth process: Learn what happens during labor, delivery, and the immediate postpartum period.
• Know your options: Get familiar with pain relief methods, birth positions, and medical interventions (like epidurals or C-sections).
• Reduce fear: Knowledge reduces anxiety by helping you feel prepared and in control.

• Classes often include partners or support people, helping them:
• Understand their role during labor.
• Learn how to provide emotional and physical support.
• Feel more confident and connected to the process.

• You’ll practice breathing exercises, relaxation, and movement strategies to cope with labor pain.

• Know what to expect from admission to discharge.
• Learn how to advocate for your birth preferences.
• Get clarity on routine policies and how to navigate them.

• Meet other expectant parents going through similar experiences.
• Share questions, fears, and joys—many lifelong friendships begin in these classes.

Research shows that people who attend childbirth education are more likely to:

• Feel satisfied with their birth experience.
• Avoid unnecessary interventions.
• Breastfeed successfully.
