The Bellevue Hospital offers expectant parents the opportunity to prepare for the labor and birth of their child through Lamaze Childbirth Classes.
Relaxation, breathing and comfort techniques will be explored and practiced during class. Information on anatomy, signs of labor, medications, cesarean births and coaches in the labor process will also be discussed. The mother will learn how to take an active role in her care and make informed decisions during her labor. A tour of the family birthing center will give expectant parents a chance to become familiar with the center and ask questions.
The class is offered on a one-on-one basis at The Bellevue Hospital and is formatted into two, three-hour classes that also include breastfeeding education.
The class fee is $35. Please call 419-483-4040 ext. 4295 to schedule your appointment.
