IN PERSON Comfort Measures: Coping Skills for Labor

This is an IN PERSON class at the Vanderbilt Birth Center.

NOTE: If you are enrolled in The Birth Journey series, you should *not* register separately for this class. The material is covered as a part of The Birth Journey.

This interactive, hands-on class is designed to build your toolbox of techniques to reduce labor pain and cope with discomfort in each stage of labor. You’ll have an opportunity to practice both relaxation and active birthing methods, and to adapt these to labor at home, in the birth center, or in a hospital setting. The full Birth Journey series goes much more in-depth on this topic, but Comfort Measures is a great refresher for people who have already given birth, or a supplemental class for those who want more practice.
