XP: 1st night of childbirth class yesterday - went well!

We started our childbirth classes last night.  I have to say, we enjoyed it!  Last night was mostly just an overview of things but we did get some useful info & watched a video about 3rd tri (Pregnancy for Dummies video, lol!).

It's held at GBMC but not through the hospital.  The instructor is a 23yr L&D nurse.  The classes offered at GBMC are taught by nurses that haven't worked in L&D before.  A bunch of doctors didn't like what was/wasn't being taught & asked her years ago if she would do a class.  Together with the docs, they put together the 4 sessions to cover everything they felt you really should know before going into labor.  She's really laid back & fun which makes the class itself go by quick.

Next week we have to take in a pillow & blanket because we'll work on lamaze & talk in depth about what might happen in the delivery room.

  • I was actually looking at that and wondering if it was worth paying the $75.00 for the class. I was hoping to take a Saturday class, but my due date is in June when the Sat classes start up.
