Understanding Birth
with Candace Crocker, BSN, RN, Family Birth Center MH Lincoln Hospital
Birth is a normal, natural, process. Just like each person is unique, each pregnancy, labor and birth are unique. At Lincoln Hospital Family Birth Center, we believe the best approach is supporting the birthing person as they navigate this natural, beautiful process. We support your decisions and value client input as a vital part of the birthing experience and labor process.
As your family prepares for labor, delivery, and the arrival of this precious new baby, we are here to help make this exciting new journey the best experience it can be for all. Our childbirth education classes cover pregnancy, labor and delivery, and newborn care. We use videos, stories, photos and animations, activities and games as well as demonstrations to teach all the essential information parents need to prepare for the birth of their baby.
It is recommended that expecting clients finish this series around 3-6 weeks before their due date. This class is for patients and their support person(s) and is now a two part series with an optional breastfeeding course (separate sign up) offered at varied times over the course of the year.
For more information about our class offerings, please call the LH Family Birth Center at 207.563.4536 to speak to one of our nurses. **Class is located at WATSON CENTER
Writing Through Grief
available
with Sarah Kilch Gaffney, MaineHealth Lifestyle Medicine Brunswick
The Arts of Wellness: Writing Through Grief
Wednesday, December 2, 5:30-7 pm
We will all face intense grief at various times in our lives. Sometimes, it will come in the form of the death of a loved one, and at other times it may take different forms: illness or injury, divorce, natural disasters, disability, family estrangement, loss of a job, taking on a caregiving role, and many others.
In this free workshop, participants will join writer Sarah Kilch Gaffney to learn how expressive writing and journaling can help us navigate grief in all its forms. Participants will hear readings, try out writing prompts, and learn about the benefits of expressive writing and journaling, as well as take home some helpful tools and ideas. No writing experience is necessary, anyone experiencing any kind of grief is welcome, and all workshop participants will get to bring a journal home with them to continue their practice.
Registration is required.
