We strongly encourage some form of Childbirth education for our first time expectant Moms. There are several options for education regarding the Labor and Delivery experience:
1. The physicians of NORTHWEST Ob/Gyn offer a unique childbirth class designed especially for our patients. The curriculum includes information about labor progression, medications, breathing techniques and comfort measures, epidurals, and delivery and postpartum procedures.
- The class is completed in one session which is 4 hrs in length. Suggested attendance is optimally week 30-36 of pregnancy.
- Classes are monthly, either:
TUESDAY Classes are 6pm-10pm at NORTHWEST OB/GYN, 3841 Trueman Ct., Hilliard, 43026.
SUNDAY Classes are 9am-1pm at AVINA WOMEN’S CARE 3600 Olentangy River Rd, bldg 490, Columbus, 43214 in the office complex across from Riverside Hospital campus, just north of the 315 freeway ramp (Avina is in back of the office court, on the left).
- Instructors are Nurses with additional certification in Labor and Delivery Nursing.
