Anyone skipping Lamaze?
My friend who delivered at Good Sam about a year or so ago said the class there was basically worthless and that the nurse in the delivery room taught her while she was in labor. I want to just "wing it", I feel like nature will take its course as far as breathing. Anyone agree?

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
I am on the fence about this as well.
Diane I just wanted to let you know my sister delivered 3 babies at Good Sam and loved them.

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
We went when I was PG with my son it was part of a one day class at my OBs office. To be honest it was a waste.
I had a c-section but the amount of time we spent on it in that one day wasn't enough to really teach me anything.

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
i am not doing lamaze.
first of all, there is no way i am going to remember lamaze breathing when i'm in the pain of labor. and i have a feeling that anyone reminding me how to breathe while i am in the worst pain of my life will be at serious risk for bodily harm... 
so i am winging it!

I never took it. I bought the Bradley book and read it cover to cover TWICE.
That, and the epidural man

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
You don't really need it. The nurse will show you exactly when and how to breath. You can also read up on it if you want.
I never took it the fist time and certianly won't need to take it this time.

I skipped it when I had my DS. The nurse talks you through it and it comes naturally.

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
We're skipping it. I'll let the nurses and doctors help me out, I'm sure I'd never remember what they told me at a class, anyway!

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
Skipped it the first time and your friend is correct...the nurses will tell you what to do and how. I am not about to bother this time around either.

We are not doing it either. Our friends who took the class told us it was a waste. At the most, we should get the DVD but that's it.

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
I will be skipping it this time but I highly suggest doing it the first time. DH and I had so much fun and it really brought up a lot of great feelings. We did a lot of couple work and the nurses who did it at Winthrop were great.
Just a suggestion

Re: Anyone skipping Lamaze?
I have given birth 3 times w/out an epi or anything and can honestly say that the lamaze stuff went right out the window once I was in the labor room..
