Congratulations on the pregnancy! A special and exciting time for you both, especially with the delivery in anticipation. Maybe you are also worrying about the labour:
- What to expect?
- How to cope with contractions and pain?
- How can my partner support and help during labour?
- How can we prepare for the birth of our baby together?
- Is there a class in English instead of Dutch?
