| Your first step in preparing for the miracle of birth is to take our First Steps Childbirth Education Classes. Designed for couples expecting for the first time, this series of informational classes will teach you the basics about giving birth, including what to expect during labor and delivery. You'll learn breathing and relaxation techniques that will help you remain more comfortable and focused during the birthing process, and we'll even hold a "labor rehearsal" enabling you to get a feel for each stage of labor and delivery. Mother and baby care topics are also covered, giving you the skills you'll need after returning home with your newborn.
The First Steps Childbirth Education Classes are taught by experienced maternity nurses who work in labor and delivery and are certified in childbirth education.
Even if you're not delivering at Montgomery Hospital, we welcome you to sign up for the Childbirth Education Classes or any other First Steps programs, including our Prenatal Breast Feeding, Sibling Preparation, or Childbirth Refresher classes. If you have any questions or need assistance in deciding which classes are right for you, please call us at 610-270-2020. For upcoming class dates, see Special Events Webpage. |
