IN Labor / AT Labor is an experiential, interactive course emphasizing every woman's innate knowledge of how to give birth and the importance of mental and emotional aspects of birthing. Classes are designed to thoroughly prepare you for your birth, whatever your birth place: home, hospital or birth center. Course topics include:
- Instruction on basic labor vocabulary to help demystify "hospital speak" and to help equip Dad, who is often less familiar with pregnancy and birth lingo, for meaningful conversations about birth planning. Many moms have reported that one of their favorite things about the class is that she and Dad are now TALKING about their upcoming labor and birth.
- A discussion of the stages of labor that will help both Mom, with what to expect IN labor, and Dad, with what to expect AT labor
- Practical experience with coping techniques, so Mom knows what to do and Dad understands what she is doing
- Comfort Measures and Labor Support 101 so Dad will know what to do to support Mom through labor, as well as when and how to do it
- Information regarding the benefits/risks of, and alternatives to, obstetric procedures along with techniques for navigating hospital politics and policies, an essential skill for those birthing at home/birth center or in the hospital
- How to prepare a birth plan and how to make sure your birth plan stands out in the minds of those who read it
- Classes include the loan of a binder full of notes from class and articles, collected over 15 years, to help you in your preparations and encourage you in your choices.
ESPECIALLY FOR DADS:
- What to say to a laboring woman
- What to never, ever say to a laboring woman
- Specific, easy to remember ideas for supporting a woman in labor
- The single, most important thing Dad can do for his lover during labor
