A must for every antenatal teacher, the Linear Contraction Chart is a visual aid for parents which illustrates the journey of labour, indicating typical intensity, shape and patterns of contractions. Obviously, no labour is the same, but this tool gives parents a general understanding of what contractions ‘look like’ in an average labour.
Having a linear timeline of labour measured by contractions gives you a powerful tool to demonstrate labour’s journey. Each contraction can be seen as one less until the birth of the baby. Also, the visual picture of the smooth lines conjures up images for parents that they can use as powerful metaphorical tools during labour—imagining a hilly road in the country, waves on an ocean, a roller coaster, etc. Let the parents decide what it looks like for them.
This chart is made of coated paper - now thicker 150gsm - with scrolls for easy rolling and storage. The scrolls can be detached for permanent fixing to a wall for teaching, or there are hooks on the scrolls. Some teachers just use pegs to attach to curtains!
IMPORTANT: Finding a satisfactory material and manufacturing process at a reasonable costs for these has proven challenging and following feedback from teachers, we have decided to lower the RRP to £10.
Your chart will already have creases in it when it arrives and all charts will crease further as they are used. Creases do not impair the value of this teaching aid to students in your class, who will be viewing it from a distance.
To reduce curling of the chart - to be expected in a long piece of unsupported paper - roll it around one of the scrolls in the opposite direction, i.e. image facing out.
Curling and creases are not manufacturing defects and not covered by the 90 day warranty on this item. Please purchase this item with these expectations to avoid disappointment.
