Pregnancy & Birth

Greater Regional Health offers obstetric services from preconception counseling and infertility services, through delivery, and postpartum care. Our obstetric providers will ensure both mother and baby are safely guided through all phases of pregnancy and childbirth. Whether the baby is delivered vaginally or through a planned or emergency caesarian section, our providers are trained to handle any change that is presented during the natural, but sometimes complex process of childbirth. If a C-section is needed, our Surgery Center is down the hall from the Birthing Center.

We offer prenatal classes, breastfeeding resources and individual teaching to help you and your baby get the best start possible. Following delivery, we focus on the health of the mother and child, ensuring that both make the transition into routine daily life.

Prenatal & Breastfeeding Classes

We offer a variety of options for prenatal and breastfeeding classes, both online and in-person. Courses will cover the last trimester of pregnancy, labor, delivery, postpartum, and breastfeeding. These resources, along with individual guidance often help mother and families feel better prepared for delivery and beyond. We want to help you and your baby get the best start possible, ensuring that both make a smooth transition into routine daily life.

FREE online classes are available through Pampers.com. This includes a 9-part series, led by clinical childbirth experts, providing in-depth information for new parents on all stages of childbirth. These classes are available to watch whenever you want!

 If you prefer an in-person class, Greater Regional Birthing Center is happy to schedule a time to meet with you at your convenience. This can be private or with your support person!
