C.H.O.I.C.E - Columbus Midwives
Center For Humane Options in Childbirth Experiences
WEEK 1: Childbirth Education Course. This course is 3 weeks long. Classes will be held on Saturdays from 1-4pm.
We will cover the anatomy and physiology of labor and birth, which will inform our discussion of why moms and babies have better outcomes with undisturbed birthing practices. We will also be practicing relaxation methods.
We will identify signs of early labor, active labor, and pushing stages through discussion and watching videos, as well as practicing hands-on techniques, including acupressure points, and ‘catching’ the baby. There will be a question and answer session.
