How wonderful! You're having another baby! Being pregnant again can be exciting and exhausting. It is an opportunity to revisit the labor and birth process from an "experienced" perspective. This can make it easier and more challenging at the same time, especially if you've had a previous difficult birth experience. Curriculum is dictated by the needs of the students, but is likely to include a review of the stages of labor and how they might be different this time around, positions of comfort during labor as well as pain coping techniques such as breathing and relaxation, and introducing your older child to his or her new sibling. There will also be an opportunity to talk about your previous birth experience to be clear on what worked for you and what didn't and explore what you may do differently this time as a result.
