Every birth is unique. Childbirth is a normal process for which a woman’s body is designed. Preparation for childbirth gives a woman confidence in her abilities and provides her with coping techniques for labor and answers to frequently asked questions.HOW WNH HELPS YOU PREPARE:
Our two-week prepared childbirth classes are designed to accommodate the mother-to-be and a support person if desired.
Because we want families to be prepared and active participants, William Newton Hospital offers this class at no charge to those planning on delivering at WNH. Otherwise, the cost is $10 per class or $20 for the full two-week session.
Week 1: What to expect during your hospital stay & infant care—signs and symptoms of labor and when you should come to the hospital. During this class you will also learn relaxation techniques to help focus during stages of labor. We’ll also cover infant care including bathing, diapering, and infant behaviors.
Week 2: Infant CPR & safety—safe sleep, period of purple crying, newborn safety, and more. You will also get a tour of the Family Birthing Center during this class.
Breastfeeding: Schedule a one-on-one, individualized meeting with one of our certified breastfeeding specialists and learn techniques that will benefit you & your baby. Breastfeeding classes are offered by appointment only and provide specialized instruction, customized for your individual needs.
WHEN & WHERE:
Classes are held on Thursday evenings from 6pm-8pm in the Lower Level Classroom at William Newton Hospital. Each session lasts two weeks, but you may choose to attend just one class or both.
Upcoming class dates are March 7 & 14, June 6 & 13, September 5 & 12, and December 5 & 12.
