We at Asha Medical Foundation conduct a 6 weeks class called Positively Pregnant, an educational prenatal program for expecting parents on the care they can take before, during and after the delivery of their child to ensure good health of the two. Started initially at Pune in 1999, we are now conducting classes at Bangalore also. Batch one will be conducted from the 25th of August 2006 (3pm to 6pm) at Bangalore. You can get a lot of information on the exercises, nutrition, relaxation techniques, pregnancy, labour & childbirth, post partum, parenting, changing body, rhythmic breathing techniques, breast feeding and delivery.To register yourself contact

Hi Shriram,

Good initaiative and best wishes to you.

This is a welcome move, and I think that as a responsible citizen such awareness programs should be introduced everywhere. This would surely be of immense help to the expecting parents as these issues are something which always lack the basic concepts as for most of them this is their first time. Hope more people will be encouraged to host such awareness campaigns.
