Re: Childbirthing classes
This is how much stuff costs for us through the hospital:
Lamaze - $150 per couple Baby Care Basics - $10 contribution Baby CPR - $35 per person Breastfeeding - $10 contribution
But the Bradley Classes are different and done outsdie the hospital, so they're more.

Re: Childbirthing classes
I think ours was $150 when I was PG with Connor. And I may be in the minority but we thought it was a waste of money.
The lamaze part amy have been helpful but I had a c-section. As for the babycare stuff......it was all things I knew. I babysat most of my life and alot of it was common sense.
But that is JMO

Re: Childbirthing classes
We spent like $35 on the Laugh and Learn Lamaze DVD, got to do it in our home and got the same info. A possible alternative to a $300 class if you're interested. I believe that company also makes on for childcare and breastfeeding.

Re: Childbirthing classes
I think it was $150.
If I had to do it all over again, I just would have gotten the DVD, since I have a higher chance of having a c-section.

I see a doctor in the city on Spring Street. Which is why the price is probably so high?

We are taking at class at Dr. Hanauer's office (she does not do the class). It is $140 for 2 classes. The first class is about labor, delivery, etc. for about 3 hours and the second class gives us a tour of the hospital.

Where did you take a private class? I am having a hard time finding a class because my DH works crazy hours (usually leaves eraly in the am and is home after 11pm). He can take off one day for a private class but to take off for 4 nights to go to the hospital is too much. With his job, if he has to leave early he'll have to take off the whole day. TIA!
