October Mommys Taking Any Classes

edited July 2011 in Third Trimester
i'm a first time mommy and was planning to take a course at my hospital, but they are so many options like one has everything and others just the birthing techniques. Have you/will you take any? Was it helpful? How many weeks before your due date are you/ did you take them?

  • I'm a FTM due Oct 31... My fiance and I are taking a birthing class and newborn care class offered by the hospital I will deliver. Unfortunately, its not free but I think valuable information to us new mommies... The hospital recomends 4 weeks prior to Due Date, so we are going in September...
  • I'm due the 21st and havent signed up for any but we definetely should since we are both first time parents.
  • Due Oct 16th and I think the only class I will take is the hospitals class on pain control options.
  • I'm due Oct 23rd and plan on starting birthing class on August 8th at the hospital. I'm also going to taking an early infant care class too. I'm a first time mama :)
