description This series is comprised of four sessions lasting 1.5 -2 hours long. They are designed with the whole pregnancy in mind to help expectant parents make informed choices that result in a happy, safe, and memorable birth. Each of the following classes compound on the information from the first class. It is recommended to start taking classes at the beginning of the pregnancy, however, if you are later in the pregnancy, the last 3 sessions are encouraged. The FIRST SESSION starts during the early second trimester- ideally after 18 weeks pregnant. Information discussed will focus on the changes that have occurred with the mother and the baby thus far. We will also review what to expect in the upcoming weeks, what tests your medical provider may have scheduled, and strategies for continuing a healthy lifestyle. 1.5 hours Some topics include:
The SECOND SESSION is given at the end of the second trimester - 2 hours
The THIRD SESSION is given towards the end of the third trimester. Essentially, this class gets the client and her coach ready for labor itself. 2 hours Topics to be discussed include:
The FOURTH SESSION is also given towards the end of the third trimester, one week after the Third Class. We do not recommend taking this session without the 3rd session. The fourth class focuses on the client and her coach and getting ready for the hospital.
