“Know Your Stuff” Childbirth Class:
Register at Growing Families Lactation and Doula Services. The instructors are certified birth doulas and have attended hundreds of births. One instructor is also a lactation consultant (IBCLC). We named this class “Know Your Stuff” because we want you to:
Know how to communicate with your providers
Know your options for birth locations and prenatal care
Know how to prepare your body physically and emotionally for birth
Know ways that your partner can support you
Know when labor is progressing or when it has stalled and what to do about that
Know your options for pain management
Know how to advocate for yourself and your baby
Know how to ask important questions even in challenging situations
Know what to expect after your baby is born
Know how to start breastfeeding well
We want you to Know Your Stuff when it comes to pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and babies. When you Know Your Stuff, you’ll feel empowered and informed and able to make the best decisions for your family.
