Who should take childbirth classes?

Whether you’re a first time parent or have given birth before, childbirth classes can provide you with important information to help you have a good birth experience. Ideally, you want to sign up for classes in your second trimester or very early on in your third. This way the information can be fresh and relevant in your mind when you go into labor but also gives you adequate time to practice coping methods and learn information to make informed decisions. Finding the right support during pregnancy can make all the difference in building confidence in your ability to give birth. I provide you with the knowledge and resources to make informed choices. Understanding how to support your body during labor leads to greater satisfaction of your birth experience, reduced fear and anxiety, and is associated with higher rates of vaginal birth.
