Refresher Childbirth Class

This class is designed for couples expecting their second or subsequent baby who have previously attended a prepared childbirth class. It focuses on the differences between first and subsequent deliveries, a review of relaxation and breathing techniques and sibling issues.

Your instructor will inform you how to arrange for a tour of the labor and delivery and postpartum area of the hospital in which you will deliver.

Each couple will receive a packet of handouts on the presented material for future reference.

This course meets once for four hours on the weekend.

It is recommended you register for a class that is scheduled three to six weeks before your due date.

Special instructions:
Please wear comfortable clothing (preferably slacks) and bring two large pillows, a watch with a second hand and paper and pen if you wish to take notes.
