The chances of some of these procedures happening aren't as high as some people anticipate, however they do happen. Some people find these subjects to be scary, some people prefer not to do much research due to all the mixed information available online. Yet, some people are looking for simple and straight forward information with no emotions and persuasion involved, and that is the main goal of this series.
The goal of this class is to inform you about the medical side of these procedures such as: how they work, risks, benefits and the common scenarios that they tend to be offered, as well as a summary of the evidence based information involved with these procedures. The focus will be what is common in the hospitals protocols. All that will be shared in a simple language so someone that isn't involved with the birth world will easily comprehend and learn with confidence that they can avoid an unnecessary procedure.
This class will be offered at my office in Oakland. There will be two classes and each class will last about two hours. We will have two to four couples present. It is highly encouraged that the birthing woman brings the main person that will be supporting her during labor.
This class can also be offered privately at the comfort of your home.
This series always starts at the first and third week of the month and is offered once a week on the same weekday from 7pm to 9pm or an intensive session one Saturday a month from 8am to 12pm.
