835.0. "good books/tapes on labor help?" by ESCROW::LIM () Tue Apr 16 1991 16:08

    Does anyone know a good booklet/videotape explaining the breathing
    technique for different stages of labor?  I'm due with my second child
    in little more than two months and would like to practice it in time.
    
    I took the childbirth class with my first one and found the breathing
    technique quite helpful, at least, at the first phase of labor.  But
    that was 8 years ago.
    
    I suppose the best way to refresh my memory is to take the refresher
    class, but I do not to want to take a couple of weekday evenings for that
    purpose, as our evening schedule gets pretty hectic these days.
    
    Any help would be appreciated.
    
    Thanks,

    We wound up taking the refresher class (they had one that was a
    single Saturday afternoon session at St. Joseph's in Nashua),
    after saying we weren't going to do it.  It was worth it; it was
    quite amazing the number of simple things I had forgotten that I
    was sure were graven on my brain forever.  Plus we had a chance to
    practice, and to get answers to specific second-pregnancy
    questions that the regular classes never get to because they're
    geared for first-timers.
