In the past, I wrote a blog all about "knowledge is power" when it comes to birth. Yet, I cannot stress this point enough! If you are thinking about becoming pregnant, are pregnant, or are ready to give birth any day now-- NOW is the time! Please-- sign up for a class, investigate your options. Ask questions, LOTS of them. It is much easier to think through your options before you are in the process of giving birth. When you are giving birth, you will still be able to make decisions-- but why would you wait to think through things until you are needing to make a major decision? If you have a quesiton about side effects of medications, how certain procedures work, etc, it is much easier to talk about these in a class or prenatal appointment, or even do some research at home before you are in the moment and need to make a decision. The more educated you are, the better chances you will have of having the kind of birth outcomes you are hoping for.
If you are looking for Childbirth Education classes in the metro area-- I have attached a link for Amma Maternity. They have an array of classes and available times. I want every woman to have her best birth possible. Being informed and educated-- however that takes place-- is so essential!
