| Bradley® Childbirth Classes The Bradley® Method is a system of natural labor techniques in which a woman and her coach play an active part. Bradley believes that natural childbirth is an important goal, since most people want to give their babies every possible advantage, so Bradley classes teach families how to labor without pain medications, whenever possible. Bradley is a simple, thorough method of increasing self-awareness -- teaching you how to work with labor based on information about how the human body works during labor. The instructor, Jessica Cannon, leads with a light-hearted and practical approach, and helps couples find what is comfortable for them in labor to reduce pain and make the labor more efficient. Instead of seeking to control the sensations of labor with distraction methods, the Bradley method encourages you to trust your body using natural abdominal breathing combined with relaxation. This series is 9 weeks long to include time for mental and physical preparation and practice, ways to stay healthy and low risk (which may help avoid later complications and allow for more options in labor), building confidence, education, improving relaxation skills, and preparing the coach with information and tools for an active role throughout the pregnancy and birth. The class fee includes a workbook containing the class curriculum, study guides, vocabulary, information on pregnancy, labor, birth, postpartum, coach training, ways of handling pain in labor, pre-birth bonding, staying healthy and low risk, nutrition, protein counter, general assignments, birth plans, relaxation exercises, labor rehearsals, and more. Classes have a minimum of 3 and maximum of 6 couples to allow for optimal interaction with the material and other participants. We recommend scheduling this class to end by 34-36 weeks of gestation to allow time for further study and practice. Advance registration is required.
