Benefits of Taking a Childbirth Class
/
According to MacDonald Women's Hospital, a childbirth class is the perfect environment to ask questions and can help you make informed decisions about key issues surrounding your baby's birth.
Some of the information you can find out from a birthing class includes:
- How your baby is developing
- Healthy developments in your pregnancy
- Warning signs that something is wrong
- How to make your pregnancy, labor, and delivery more comfortable
- Breathing and relaxation techniques
- How to write a birth plan
- How to tell when you are in labor
- Pain relief options during labor
- What to expect during labor and delivery
- The role of the coach or labor partner
