To help expectant couples with limited time fit in a Lamaze class, a one-day, all-day class is offered on a weekend day (Saturday OR Sunday) once or twice a month.

During the Lamaze course, nationally certified instructors work with expectant mothers and fathers to help you plan for your child's birth, discuss options and prepare you to cope with the discomforts of labor and delivery. Parents-to-be will learn about birth and what to expect when mom comes to the hospital. Positioning, massage, relaxation, breathing and other pain management techniques will be taught. It is recommended that expectant parents attend these classes in the last two to three months of pregnancy.

Because registration is limited to 10 couples, early registration is recommended.

Class fee (Hospital tour included) is $90 per couple. To register, 412-578-7030 and pay by credit card or send in a printed form with check. Reduced Fee Package: Register for the following three classe and save $15.00, Lamaze, Baby Care Basics and Breastfeeding for $160 per couple.
