About The Instructor: |
|
|
|
|
|
I have two boys, ages five and three. During my first pregnancy I attended the Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth course and a refresher course for my second baby. Both births, even though completely different in duration and intensity, were uncomplicated, and went according to our birthplan of no induction, drugs, medication, IV, episiotomy, forceps, or vacuum extraction, and minimal fetal monitoring. |
