Childbirth education is a vital process that empowers expectant parents with the knowledge and skills necessary for a healthy and enjoyable labour and delivery. Understanding the stages of labour, pain management options, breathing techniques, and the role of a support person can significantly reduce anxiety and improve outcomes. It can equip parents with the ability to make informed decisions regarding their birthing plan, interventions and options regarding their birth.
