Childbirth Education

Do you want a natural birth?   Would you like to learn about relaxation to lessen pain, the stages of labor and would you like to avoid narcotics to your baby during birth?

Anchor 1
The Bradley Method® classes teach:

  • relaxation techniques and natural breathing to lessen pain

  • excellence in nutrition as the foundation for a healthy pregnancy

  • stages of labor

  • exercise to prepare your body for birth

  • avoidance of drugs during pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding (no drugs are safe for baby)

  • active participation by the coach/partner

  • immediate and continuous contact with baby for bonding

12 WEEKS
3 MONTHS
LAST TRIMESTER
Twelve weeks = 3 months = the last trimester of pregnancy
​
The standard series of classes in The Bradley Method® is 12 continuous weeks for many reasons.
 
First of all, it works. Statistical analysis shows that students who attend a full 12 week class series are more likely to have an unmedicated birth.
 
Your body also needs time to prepare. It takes three months for habits (eating/nutrition) to change. It takes time for relaxation and exercises, practiced in class and at home, to change your body and strengthen it for the work of labor & delivery of your 
blessing.
