“I really appreciated that my instructor walked us through what to expect when we get to the hospital, and the process of labour. She was so detailed in explaining everything from the stages of labour, how to relieve pain, pain options to even where my partner should park when we get to the hospital. She provided us with information using facts and compassion and was non judgemental in her approach. Learning about what positions are best for labour and what is happening with the baby (using heart rate monitors, etc) was wildly informative..”
