Natural Childbirth Positions

This is a great (yet short) clip about some of the best positions to be in for pushing. My favorite part is how this midwife ends, that she is there to aid the mom! Awesome! I would gladly hire her to be my midwife.

What are Christian Birthing Classes like?

These classes are similar to the classes given at your hospital with one exception - the focus is on Christ. This class will help you to prepare for your child not just physically but emotionally and spirtually as well. In it you will learn what the bible says about birth. You will also learn how to use Christian disciplines to aid in comfort and calm fears during pregnancy and delivary. All the same physiological information as hospital classes without the uncomfortable videos.

A couples class, it will help dads deal with their coming role of spiritual leader, provider and coach (through labor).

It doesn't matter if this is your first baby or your fifth, your planning a natural birth or a c-section; God wants you to invite Him into the birth of your baby. We invite Him into our weddings and funerals, babtisms and baby dedications. Now is the time to invite Him into the birth of your precious child.
