Childbirth classes at CHI St. Alexius Health Dickinson are designed to empower women and their families with knowledge about childbirth. We offer education to prepare you to make informed choices about your childbirth experience. Our staff has Licensed Certified Childbirth Educators leading our childbirth classes.
Our sessions are held monthly. There may be 3-4 classes lasting 2-3 hours each, or a one-day class lasting 8 hours.
The classes will cover:
- Pregnancy, labor, birth, postpartum, and babycare
- Comfort techniques
- Pain management, including epidurals
- Breastfeeding
- Tour of the Labor & Delivery and Postpartum areas of the Obstetrics Unit
At CHI St. Alexius Health Dickinson, we feel every birth has a profound effect on mothers and their families. Mothers having a second child can also benefit from our classes, as every birth experience is different. We want to prepare you for a memorable birth experience.
