"My husband and I LOVED this class. It being online was great because we could go at our own pace and really make sure we were absorbing the information. Hillary is so funny and down to earth and made everything less scary." -- Tyler B
This pregnancy class was created for the thousands of couples who...
Labor can be simple.
Pregnancy, birth & breastfeeding seems really complicated, right? But it really isn't. I'm going to break it down into easy-to-understand bites.
You can learn on your own timeline.
No more Tuesday nights at 6 pm when you're starving and tired. Now you can pick when you're both ready for a quick 20-minute lesson, available whenever you want!
It can be fun.
Done is the era of the boring birth class. I know it's hard to imagine birth being fun -- but this class will have you laughing and prepared in no time.
This is THE online class created for couples that they actually enjoy!

The Pregnancy Nurse ™ Presents:
The quick, affordable, fun birth class that helps you both feel confident about birth.
What does the childbirth class cover?
This birth class is split into 3 topics:
Life Before Labor
Wondering why your doctor ordered a certain test, or what exactly you should be worried about (because everything seems a bit weird). This topic talks ALL about that.
Chapters in this section include:
"True" labor and "false" labor have a LOT of similarities, but also some things that are different and you'll understand all of it!
How does this baby come OUT?
The labor room seems so "mysterious" but it doesn't have to be that way. Experience is key and you will be prepared in all these areas:
Chapters in this section include:
Common labor concerns are no longer going to keep you awake at night. You'll know how to make the best choice when the time comes!
What happens AFTER baby is born?
This is the part most people just ignore, and it's the part you're in for the longest (forever). Let's get you prepared to make the most of your hospital stay and then a postpartum plan that sets you up for success!
Brand new in 2024: All class options now include "Postpartum Care Made Easy" where you learn in advance the problem areas to watch for in yourself after baby, at no additional cost (because it's SO important)
Chapters in this section include:
Let's make a great plan for life after baby. (because that lasts longer than even pregnancy & birth)

Want a review before labor (or maybe one of you only wants to do the bare minimum)? These are for you!
Each chapter is reviewed in what is important before heading into the hospital. Couples LOVE these videos! Think of them as the cliff notes for pregnancy!
Learn what to watch for after baby is born to stay healthy!
Let's hear from someone who took a variety of classes, and see how this one compared:
MARY H. | Class participant
Hers was hands-down the best
"Hilary's class was great! We went through a few classes (nervous first-time parents) and hers was hands-down the best. Her style was straight-forward and direct, but still funny and definitely engaging. I would (and will!) highly recommend!"
This Birth Class is taught by an RN with 20+ Years of Experience
Hey Mamas
I'm Hilary, I'll be your nurse today.
I've been a nurse since 1997, and have 20 years of labor and delivery experience, and many of you know me as The Pregnancy Nurse®
Every time I'd knock on a new door and share that I was going to be their nurse today I'd know I was just so lucky to get to be there. And even after helping thousands of families, it never gets old.
I know you're nervous, things are new and it doesn't feel good to be out of your element. The good news, the labor and delivery floor is entirely my element -- and I can help feel familiar for you too.
As a mom to three myself, I know how busy you feel and how much there is to do to get ready for this new baby -- but I can promise that this prenatal class was designed to give you just the information you need, and get you on your way.
In just a few hours I can get you prepared and excited for your upcoming birth. I guarantee it.
Online Prenatal Class for Couples FAQ's
As you know, insurance companies vary a LOT in what they will pay for. However, more and more insurance companies are covering birth classes.
The Online Prenatal Class for Couples does come with an itemized receipt, and is taught by a licensed provider and meets any stipulations an insurance usually requires.
Health education is an HSA/FSA covered expense. Our credit card processor may not allow the debit card you get directly from them, but our itemized receipt should make for easy reimbursement.
I am happy to provide any other information you need. FYI, I've never had a student who's insurance said they covered it who didn't get it covered with the information I have.
I'm so glad you asked.....
Let's see what the studies show:
Benefits of prenatal education classes have included increased confidence for labor and birth among women who attended prenatal classes, higher likelihood of breastfeeding, improved communication between childbearing women and their maternity care providers, decreased need for analgesic medication in labor, and increased satisfaction with birth (Chalmers & Kingston, 2009; Enkin et al., 2000).
Sounds pretty great, right? As a nurse for 20 years, I stand behind this data. People who take a class have a happier, more confident birth.
After thousands of deliveries...
I saw that people who took classes for expecting parents felt happier with their births, and their transition into parenthood. I KNEW that childbirth education was so important. I knew we needed to do better, and I started teaching prenatal classes for my own hospital to make a change.
But,what we were doing wasn't working....
Couples were:
Busy -- 6 pm on Tuesdays just didn't work for a lot (and sometimes one would have to miss)
Tired - after a busy day at work they couldn't concentrate & the rooms were uncomfortable, and they were STARVING.
Missing -- Childbirth education classes filled fast, couples schedules were hard to mesh to find a time that would work.
Not doing it -- So many couples WANTED one, but just couldn't make it work.
So, I changed it
In 2014 I launched the first edition of this class, and have edited and adjusted it until it was one of the best selling, and the most helpful childbirth class on the internet.
I am excited to help you get the confident, collaborative birth you want -- on your OWN schedule. This class is taught entirely on demand. It can be done anywhere or from the comfort of home
Longevity, studies and reviews show that this is one of the best online birth classes available!

"This class helped us know what to expect during delivery, how to advocate for ourselves, especially during Covid. It essentially replaced an in person hospital tour, as well as going over safety measures."
Dawn Chenette, Former Student
“
"Easy class to follow with your partner with all the key info. There's also a ton of extra resources if you need them (extra videos, notes, etc.). You can also always reach out to Hillary with questions at the end of each video."

Expectant parents, new mothers, pregnant moms and new parents are looking for online classes that talk about the stages of labor, birth plans, and the birth process for the birth of their baby. This class is taught by a registered nurse about comfort measures for new moms. It can include include support groups with childbirth educators. It is really important that you learn about medical interventions at your own pace in online birthing classes. You have plenty of time to take it, it has 3 hours of instruction. Similar to in person classes, we will talk relaxation techniques for natural birth, cesarean birth and what your support person can do for you. It is a great option for busy couples. Pain medication is an important aspect that your delivery nurse will discuss with you. Don't forget you don't JUST need these online programs, you'll also need a car seat . It is like the current Lamaze classes that give you valuable information. This class does not cover infant CPR , but it is one of the best online childbirth classes. This class has proven to be enough for natural childbirth or unmedicated birth. Expectant mothers who expect no pain relief in their birth stories might want to get a course from a Lamaze certified childbirth educator or Hypnobabies. This course does cover baby care, how family members can help even with their busy schedule. Your vaginal birth is important for pregnant women and this class gives you convenient access -- and we even have virtual classes that are similar to an in person class. Make sure that you are getting your prenatal care. for your new baby. This class is OK for people giving birth in a birth center, and have a good internet connection. It is parent education for the entire family to prepare for their birth. It is not created by a lacatation consultant and it is not the Mama Natural Birth Course. But it is one of the best birthing classes for expectant parents. Best birth class for couples.
