What You’ll Learn
- Describe the physiologic principles of maternal and fetal oxygen transfer as they apply to principles of fetal heart monitoring
- Appraise the fetal response to maternal pathological and physiological adaptations during the labor process
- Analyze complex case studies and tracings using standardized terminology

Why does our coping with labor skills matter, they should just take a class and prepare themselves, right? If your epidural rates are high, won’t this class content barely be used? Our Physiologic Birth class taught you the mechanics of labor/birth and how to help the baby navigate the pelvis, this is the same class right? WRONG!
This class builds a strong case of how coping techniques should be included in the Physiologic Birth class because they have a direct and indirect affect on the labor process and can help or hinder the physiology of vaginal birth. If you’ve taken our Coping with Labor class, this class is the advanced version that includes the “why” behind everything we do, while teaching new advanced skills to help facilitate a physiologic birth!
This class is a class recording of a 2-day live class. The class was so successful and participants loved it so much THEY asked that it be made available for you!!
What will I learn?
Upon successful completion of the workshop, the participant will be able to educate, triage and better facilitate physiologic coping to meet the desires of the laboring person and accomplish a vaginal birth. This class is designed for labor & delivery nurses working with intrapartum birthing people and their partner(s) practicing in the inpatient hospital setting, but is not limited to just nurses! Birth workers, OBs, Midwives are also welcome and will learn so much!
It will provide information necessary to promote physiologic coping and birth and positively interact with a diverse demographic of birthing people through non-pharmacological coping interventions. This course promotes birth as a normal, physiologic process for most people, but recognizes that there are complexities of birth that may predispose the client to trauma, negative experiences, and interruptions in the physiologic birth process that can impact the ultimate mode of delivery.
- Learn directly from nurses that understand the flow of a unit, your time constraints and how hard your job is.
- Bonus guest instructor Krysta Dancy, perinatal trauma therapist
