My hospital offers one. I am not signing DH up for this. Out of the 2 of us, he is better equiped to take care of a kid anyway (DH - one of 5 kids with lots of neices and nephews, me = only child with fear of diapers).
OliveBerry, your signature makes me laugh every time I see it!!
And I will not be signing my fiance up for anything. He's going with me to a child preparedness class, but only because each person who goes with you gets "baby bucks" and at the end you can spend all your saved "bucks" in their baby shop (clothes, toys, even PnPs and stuff).

I dont think we have one, but no. I signed up for the delux package (birthing plus first aid and breastfeeding) and he will go to all those classes with me. Except maybe breastfeeding. We'll see.
We have signed up for 7 classes (for only $90 total) at our hospital. DH is more excited about them than I am I think. He's an only child and only baby girl will be the first baby he's ever held! I grew up babysitting and nanny-ing in college, so I know much more about baby stuff than he does. We are taking a dog and baby, breastfeeding, parenting your newborn, CPR certification/first aid, childbirth prep, medications/medical options, and DH is taking the Daddy Bootcamp by himself. He's really pumped about it (except that he has to take a doll with him). It's also the day of my shower, so it works out well!
