Thank-you for
your interest in childbirth class. Some of
the topics your 10-12 hour series will cover
are: third trimester changes, preparation
for labor, comfort measures, partner/coach
helpful hints, relaxation and breathing
techniques, newborn care, breastfeeding,
bottle-feeding, and what happens after the
baby is born.
These classes are offered to all patients
delivering at Maine Coast Memorial Hospital
and are scheduled throughout the year. If
possible, we suggest moms and
partners/coaches begin class during the 30 -
36th week of pregnancy. This will allow
you to complete the series before you
complete your pregnancy.
Class options are:
-
Saturdays, meeting 2 times, from 10:00am
to 3:30pm
- Tuesday
evenings, meeting 4 times from 6:00pm to
9:00pm
We encourage
early registration. Pre-registration is
required.
For more information and a registration
form, please call us on the Obstetric Unit
at Maine Coast Memorial Hospital at 664-5464
or stop by the nurse’s station (take a peek
at the unit and meet us).
