A scope-and-warning-sign decision map with reliable current clinical contact pathways.

Week 2

Physiology, comfort, support, and informed choices

  • Explain cervical changes, stages, and contraction terminology without predicting exact individual progress.

  • Practice adaptable coping, consent, companion support, and questions about interventions.

Your checkpoint

A flexible support demonstration and a checked contraction-timing exercise.
