Childbirth Class Information
FOUR WEEK GROUP CLASSES
This course is designed for women (and their husbands/partners) who are in weeks 17-32 of their pregnancy (however all stages welcome). Classes cover topics such as signs of labor, pre-labor and preterm labor, natural labor coping techniques (water therapy, position changing, natural birth, breathing & relaxation techniques, touch massage, etc) physiological management of all stages of labor, medicated pain management, prenatal wellness, baby care basics, breastfeeding, postpartum wellness, and more. This group course will be taught at the Sacramento location.
PRIVATE FOUR WEEK CLASSES
These classes cover all the same things as the classes above but are done in your own private residence. Classes are structured for women (and her husband/partner) who are in the 25-31st week of pregnancy.
PRIVATE TWO WEEK CLASSES
These classes are designed to cover the labor and birth process. Couples will be taught a wide range of natural labor coping techniques such as water therapy, breathing and relaxation, benefits of movement and positon changing in labor and more. The classes will also cover stages of labor and signs of prelabor, labor and preterm labor. A brief overview of breastfeeding and postpartum basics is done as well. You would benefit best by taking this course later in your pregnancy (32-35 weeks pregnant) because it is only two weeks.
