This is Part 3 of a three part series. Please sign up for Part 1 and Part 2 above. All of your class dates should be in the same month. Join us in person at MidCoast Hospital for the final session of our Preparing for Labor & Birth series. We will meet at the entrance of the offices building where you go to your prenatal appointments. It will start with a tour of the maternity unit and birthing rooms and then we will spend the rest of our time practicing various labor positions and hands on support techniques for partners, as well as discuss a variety of coping techniques!

We look forward to working with you!
