RiverView Health is offering a daylong class for expecting parents on Saturday, March 7. The class will include information on labor support, coping strategies, understanding the labor and delivery process, newborn care, car seat safety, breastfeeding and infant CPR.
Area physicians encourage their obstetrics patients to attend classes, with a support coach, to better understand what to expect during pregnancy and childbirth; and to help ease the fear of the unknown and make for a more enjoyable childbirth experience. The course instructors will be labor/delivery nurses at RiverView Health.
The March 7th class will be held from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and is free to anyone delivering at RiverView, with a cost of $25 for those not delivering at RiverView. Pre-registration is required. For more information or to pre-register, call the Obstetrics Department at RiverView at 218-281-9300.
