Where are you delivering? I am pretty sure all the hospitals have birthing classes for very little money (Methodist has many for free or like $20 if you join their Women's Plus program - also free)
It depends on what you are looking for. Most of the area hospitals should offer child birth classes. .
My husband and I actually took Bradley classes outside of the hospital. It really promotes natural labor and delivery. It is a 12 week series of classes and it covers everything from nutrition to various labor interventions, relaxation techniques, writing a birth plan and the different stages of labor. My husband found it really helpful because they showed a lot of videos of birth and it helped him feel more comfortable with what would occur with labor and delivery. I haven't delievered yet but I feel alot better about my impending birth because of all the information I got from the classes. If it sounds like something you might be interested in there is a website with teachers in San Antonio. www.sabradleyteachers.com/ Our teacher was Julie Walker who is off of 281 and bitters.
They also teach a free introductory class at Destination Maternity off of the 10 and Wurzbach called pregnancy 101.
