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.
