LOCAL CLASS - coping with contractions

Picture
Type of class: in-person, private classes or group classes
 
What this class is about: This is a comprehensive 3-day class about your options for coping with contractions and comfort methods during labor. We talk about natural and non-medicinal approaches as well as medication options. Know your options; choose what is right for you. This will also prepare your husband and support people to help serve you through labor.

There is a workbook that goes along with this class. The workbook will be printed and put in a folder. If you want, you can bring a binder and paper to take notes.  
 
Why take it: A prepared birth is an empowered birth. It makes a difference when people take the time to learn what to expect and ways they can handle it. Learn different coping options. Have your partner learn a variety of comfort measures. Have an easier birth.
 
Who it’s open to: This is for pregnant women in their third trimester. A spouse or one support person is included in the cost of the class.
 
What to wear: This class is very hands-on. Wear something flexible. If you want, you can bring a blanket for added modesty.
 
What to bring: You don’t have to bring anything for this class, but you may find it more comfortable to bring pillows. Bring a pen and a notebook if you’d like to. If you have any support tools for labor, you are welcome to bring them and practice with what you have.
 
Where class is: This class is available in person in the Dayton, Ohio area. Service area is based on county. See the Classes I teach page for more information. All classes are in-home unless a student can host at their church or other public location (in public is preferred if able).
 
How long class is: It’s a 3-day class typically taught Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. Each day is approximately 2 to 3 hours.  
 
When: All classes are by appointment only.
 
Cost: Private classes are $180. Group classes are $90.
