Abstract
Education for childbirth is a necessary part of prenatal care. Methods used may vary from individual instruction by the physician to group or class instruction by authoritative persons, agencies or hospitals. Brochures, anatomic and exercise charts and motion pictures are valuable teaching aids. The author recommends that instruction should cover anatomy and physiology of reproduction, nutrition, hygiene and minor problems of pregnancy, and physiology and psychology of labor. Results achieved from parent and maternity staff education justify any extra effort required.
