Seeking Birthing Classes

I took hypnobirthing and it really worked for me, I know birthing methods can be a touchy subject, but if you are running out of time I know that Amazon has dvds that you can buy, that's probably what I'll do my next time around as a refresher. I thought the class was good but everything I learned I could've read or watched on a dvd. They may have dvd's for other methods - even check your library - might be the fastest convenient way to go. Good luck!!

If you're interested in hypnobirthing or bradley classes you may be able to find someone that will do a class in a few hours 2X or something like that. Let me know if that's something you'd like. I know a couple people that do those types of classes.

Every hospital has them. I took mine through Generations OBGYN-my DR office. 15 mile & Old Woodward ave.

I had a terrific instructor who did Lamaze with my husband and I. She does it out of her home and is very flexible, I bet she would be willing to do a few classes together to get you done quicker. She is in Rochester Hills, let me know if you are interested and I will get you her information. Good luck~

I completly understand why you want to take a birthing class but I was very disapointed in the class I took. They covered EVERYTHING in such a short amount of time that they couldn't really cover ANYTHING to the amount I wanted to know it. My advice is to read all the books you can about the method you are leaning towards. AND don't forget that in just a couple of weeks you will need to know how the breastfeed (if you are doing that) or make a bottle (if you are doing that) and how to do all the other things a new baby will need. I forgot that until about 2 weeks to my due date, boy that motivated me to read!!! I would reccomomend Dr. Sears books -- they cover a great deal of sides to all the issues/concerns. They have a birth book and a baby book. You might beable to get them from the library I don't know. God bless and have fun with your new baby and family!!!

Our OB offered a one day option and at that time it was offered once a month. They are at Providence Hospital - the OB office is Associates in OBGYN in Providence Park in Novi.
GOod luck!
