A Refresher Birth Class @WBWC

We will review the many topics covered in first-time birth classes with an emphasis on comfort measures and relaxation exercises to help boost your physical and emotional well-being in pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Parents will be encouraged to share past birth experiences as well as hopes for this new birth. Each class will be tailored to participants’ needs, expectations, and interests.

This class is ideal for couples expecting their second or subsequent child and planning for a low-intervention birth.
