Childbirth Prep Express

Picture
Blossom believes it is to your advantage to take a comprehensive birth class that meets over the course of a few weeks or more. However, we recognize that life circumstances may get in the way of doing so for many expectant families. To meet the needs of these families, we offer our Childbirth Prep Express, which can be completed in one weekend.

What you will learn

This course is divided into two three-hour classes, where we will provide an overview of the stages of labor, what to expect when birthing in the hospital with regards to common protocols and interventions, and have a short labor practice. Some couples may find that they would benefit from extra time spent on coping techniques for labor and may wish to sign up for our Comfort Measures for an Easier Labor as well.

Blossom offers more in-depth Childbirth Prep courses which can run from 3 to 8 weeks and have different approaches to Childbirth.
