The Obstetrics Department at Parkland Health Center conducts childbirth classes, which include Lamaze, breastfeeding, prenatal and postnatal care, and for siblings.

  • Childbirth classes are available to all moms-to-be in the seventh month of pregnancy. Topics include different birthing methods, including Lamaze. The class teaches birthing options, discusses medications and teaches participants what to expect during the last trimester.

  • Breastfeeding classes are taught one-on-one with the mother before she delivers, and after delivery on an outpatient basis.

  • Sibling classes teach young children basic baby facts, and they get to see a short film.
