Childbirth Education Classes 
Provided by Sr. Lynda Lilienfeld,
Registered International Childbirth Educator, usually on
Tuesday evenings from 6-8pm over 6 weeks.
These courses offer a great opportunity for making
new friends in the area(which often become life-long friends as you are
all experiencing this overwhelming life-change at the same time and will
probably end up attending ballet classes or soccer practices together as
the babies grow).
You will learn about the Anatomy and Physiology of
labour and birth, which will put into perspective what will be happening
to you during pregnancy and during birth. Fear is a contributory factor towards pain
and being informed will empower you and help to make your birth a
memorable positive experience .
The course covers the Normal stages of Labour and
Vaginal Birth as well as Comfort Measures and Coping techniques for
labour, and a variety of Interventions including
Caesarean Sections and Epidural etc. The last two classes cover
Breastfeeding, how to cope with bathing your newborn and various topics
pertaining to babies eg. Weight gain issues, vaccine issues, Jaundice,
Rashes and temperatures.
Course Cost is R1200 (vat incl) and needs to be paid
either by EFT or at the Dunvegan Baby Clinic as cash or by Credit/Debit
card at least a week prior to first class.
