HSHS St. Anthony’s Memorial Hospital is offering expectant parents, “Having a Baby,” a three-part educational series which provides a comprehensive journey through the process of birth and infant care. The series is designed for mothers and their support partners, and can make a positive difference in the birth experience.

The series includes the following information:

  •         Signs of Preterm Labor
  •         Stages of Labor
  •         Pain Relief Options for Labor
  •         Medical Interventions
  •         Role of the Support Partner
  •         Breathing and Relaxation Techniques
  •         Birthing Positions
  •         Cesarean Birth
  •         Immediate and Extended Post-Partum
  •         Infant Care and Safety

HSHS St. Anthony’s encourages all first-time mothers to sign up for the series at 20 weeks of pregnancy and attend this series at 30 weeks with their support partners. All classes begin at 6:30 p.m. in the hospital auditorium and pre-registration is required. Each pregnancy and birth is unique so HSHS St. Anthony’s also encourages those who have delivered before to take the series as a review.

In June, the series will be held on Tuesday, July 12; Wednesday, July 20; and Tuesday, July 26.
