Benefits of Childbirth Classes
Childbirth classes can help parents feel more confident and empowered in their ability to cope with the physical and emotional demands of labor and birth. They can also provide an opportunity to meet other expectant parents and build a support network. Other benefits of childbirth classes include:
- A safe space to discuss fears about labor and birth with an instructor and other couples with similar concerns
- Teaching your partner how to support you before, during and after birth
- Reinforcing your bond with your partner through shared experience
- Learning about pain relief options including breathing techniques, massages, and medications
- The opportunity to tour your birthing facility and ask about routine practices and expectations within the facility.
