Preparing for Childbirth

Few events are more exciting than the birth of your baby. Learn the skills and strategies that can help make your childbirth experience a positive one. In this five-session program, we'll teach you breathing and relaxation techniques to use during labor and delivery. We'll discuss pain management options, the role of your coach, hospital procedures, and what to expect before, during, and after delivery. We encourage you to take this class during the last three months of pregnancy. Early registration is suggested. Bring a couple of pillows or a mat because some of the exercises are performed on the floor. Open to Kaiser Permanente members and to those delivering their babies or receiving clinical/surgical care at Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa Medical Center. Available in Spanish. Location: Stein Medical Offices, MOB 4
