Have any of you taken this class through Beaumont? Was it worth the $90? If so, what location did you take it at? Thanks!

    I took in West Bloomfield, IMO it wasn't really worth it. We did the weekend class and I didn't learn anything I didn't know.  However if you are planning or thinking about breastfeeding that class was so worth it.

    Ditto on the Question! We are also considering the home study version... My OB didn't seem to sold on the classes....

    If you are planning to have a natural childbirth, they are not worth the money.  Not even a tiny bit.  They WILL teach you how to be a good patient and what protocols to expect, and when you can get your epidural.  So...if you ARE planning to get the epidural when you get there, they are actually probably all you need.  Other than that, they're not worth much.  I would be happy to recommend several out of hospital classes if you are looking for more than they are going to offer you!

     I am taking one that my doctor recommended. It is run by a nurse at troy beaumont. It is $75 and 4 sessions.

    email me if you want the info! We would probably be in the same class.

    We took the class about 5 years ago, it was at a church in Troy.  It wasn't very helpful for me, but I think it made my husband a little more comfortable, and to know what was going to happen.  Ours was 4 weeks long, one night a week.  Way too long in my opinion to cover what we learned.

    The only class I took was the breastfeeding class, where a nurse held the class in the Oakland-Macomb Ob/Gyn waiting room.

    When I had DD, I took the class at Troy Beaumont, and I had a really good experience.  My best friend took the one in Birmingham and didn't get too much out of it.  For us, it was a good experience for DH, because he didn't have as much prior knowledge as I did.
