Past: Accelerated Childbirth Preparation Class

This all inclusive, one-day, accelerated class is designed to accommodate couples who just want the basic information or whose schedules do not allow for five weekly evening classes.

The physical and emotional changes that follow delivery, as well as normal newborn adjustment and breastfeeding, also are discussed. This class is taught by one of the OB nurses on staff at Southeast. Free for those delivering at Southeast; $40 per couple for others. Please register at SEhealth.org or by calling 331-6190.
