Childbirth 2-Day Series


The online 2-day mini-series is a modified version of the 4-week series that only focuses on labor and delivery. It is a good option for first-time parents unable to attend the 4-week series or women who will be attempting a VBAC for the first time (vaginal birth after cesarean). Compared to the 1-day class, this series has an extra hour of instruction time which Ashley typically uses to further discuss coping methods and the benefits and risks of medical interventions.

Topics reviewed: 
  • Physiology and progression of labor and birth
  • Relaxation and breathing techniques
  • Coping methods for labor and birth such as hydrotherapy, music, mental focus, and comforting positions
  • Analgesia and anesthesia options such as nitrous oxide and epidurals
  • Benefits and risks of medical interventions
  • The partner's role during labor and birth
