Topics that will be covered include:
• Signs of labour, including when to come to hospital
• Progress of labour and birth
• Support in labour
• Practical coping methods during labour
• Medical options for pain management
• Medical assistance for birth
• Understanding breastfeeding

As we cannot conduct Hospital Tours, we encourage you to watch the virtual tours on The Women’s website: https://www.thewomens.org.au/patients-visitors/cbe/childbirth-education-parkville-video-tour/A refund will only be available if cancellation is made, at least one week prior to the first booked session. If you book a program but do not attend no refund will be given.
Please choose your dates carefully as classes book out quickly. It will not be possible to change your booking.
You will need a device that has the WebEx app downloaded onto it in order to attend.
