Anyone take birth classes with their first? My doctor keeps asking me if I'm going to take the classes at the hospital. I honestly have no desire to take them. Was it beneficial at all or a waste of time?
Are You Taking a Birthing Class??? I'm just curious to see how many mommas will be registering for any classes??? If so, are you registered already? When will you be taking them??
Anyone on here taking CNA training classes ?
first time mommies did you take a parenting class? did you take a labor class?
Birthing classes I’m a FTM and wondering if I should take a birthing class? I’ll be 37 weeks tomorrow so it’s kinda late ? but has anyone found birthing classes helpful?
Do you have to take child birth classes/prenatal classes to register at the hospital you want? Im going to Riverside Community Hospital. I wanted to take them but the thing is that my clinic gave me my registration packet for my hospital all late (suppose to give it to me at 6 months, just gave it to me I'm 2 weeks away) and the dates for the free classes had passed already for this month. I don't want to pay $60-$100 for a 2-4 hours class (still have baby stuff to buy) if it's not required to take. I did find a free online class with videos to take and I've been watching that. TIA! ☺

That's how I felt so I told my Dr I wasn't gonna be taking any birthing classes and plus the nurses walk you through everything as it is so it would be a waste of time. Our bodies know what to do and when you have a nurse telling you what to do and keep reminding you to breath it is easy lol in a sense

Exactly, I agree with you. & That's precisely what it is, repetitive information. You'll do just fine, I assure you! The doctors & nurses will definitely help guide you through your labor & delivery & there is always a lactation consultant & they are extremely caring & helpful!

@wyatts_mommy_0106, that's how I feel. My body was made to do this can't I just wing it? lol I'm normally a very relaxed, laid back person, and I'm really not nervous about it at all. My body will do what it needs to do.

Thanks for your input @mam426 @mommyof3preciousbabies @naomiedgd. I read everything I possibly can, watch documentaries, watch YouTube vidoes, talk to friends and family that have had kids vaginally and c section. I just have no desire to take a whole day and sit in a class that may not give me much new information. My biggest concern is breastfeeding and I know there will be a lactation consultant at the hospital giving me one on one help when the baby is here. idk...

I never took birthing classes I heard they was a waste of time and didn't help so I just went with it

It just wasn't beneficial for me. Those classes don't help when it comes down to really having a baby. This is, however, my opinion. Go with your gut though! If you really want to do them, then go. If you don't care either way, then don't. @39surp

@mommyof3preciousbabies, why waste of time? I was thinking of taking the classes too. They don't help?

I'm a ftm and I'm definitely going to take them. my mom said it helped her a lot with my older sister and she would recommend them to anyone :) She said they even teach you how to push!
