Do childbirth classes matter? It has been found that taking childbirth classes facilitates:
-
increased communication of overall health decisions
-
better communication with partner
-
better relaxation and stress management skills
-
healthier lifestyle behaviors
-
increased birth satisfaction, even when the birth didn’t go as hoped
-
feeling more prepared for a second or subsequent delivery when the previous birth was upsetting
