How many FTM are actually taking a birthing class? I'm a FTM and think they are overrated, but I could be wrong since I have never given birth before! haha

Lately I have been debating if I should go to birthing classes or just go with the flow. Birthing classes in my area at the local hospital are $60 a class and I really can not justify paying $60 a class when I could be using the money for bills or to ...

I didn't free birthing classes....
Week by Week..) I don't think you'll learn anything from the birthing classes.
We paid $120., WTEWYE, Preg.
It was worth it for us.
Some insurance companies cover the cost.

Some of my friends say its a waste of time, cause you forget everything during labor? Should I or should I not attend birthing classes? Are you attending them? And if you have in the past, do you think it was worth it?

So we were contemplating the idea of doing a home birth. Our insurance for anything out of network sucks. To use the only midwife in the area we would pay 1500 plus 60% out of pocket. She is out of network. We can't get her approved in network because...

Is anyone here in the UK hoping to deliver in a midwife led birthing centre, rather than in a hospital or at home? A new one has just opened in my local town and I'm booked in there, but I haven't seen it yet. I'm hoping to set a date for my tour on Monday...

I'm so confused by all the different types of birthing classes. I'm planning a natural water birth at a hospital with my midwife and doula present. My DH travels for work so it's 50/50 if he'll make it home for the birth. My doula recommended Bradley ...

The Bradley Method, also has a strong emphasis on a "birthing partner." So I would suggest, if you choose i took a birthig from within and a compationate birthing class.
