Comfort + Coping
You will not use what you do not practice!
Comfort + Coping is a 2-hour workshop and serves as a wonderful complement to our Intro to Labor + Delivery class, a more traditional birth class or as a stand-alone refresher course. This session will give you the guidance and space to practice what may work best during each stage of labor - with or without an epidural. Comfort + Coping also provides the ideal space for partners to experiment with hands-on support strategies and become more confident in their role as a labor support person.
