I had no option, the midwife organised
some classes out of town where I cant get
to so I had to organise some myself. I
had to go from one place to another and I
could just get myself the parental classes
in town because I am nearly 37 weeks
pregnant. I have four classes to go to in
august and I think ill only be able to
attend about two :(

they were to bring it in and put ur baby
in it,
we also got exercise balls and showin some

young mums in the class and uv got no1

Ive already had a tour of the delivery
ward. My midwife took me around it and
the classes im going to go to tomorrow
aren't at the hospital, they're in the
town community centre so I guess ours will
be completely different as ive already
spoke to my midwife about all the stuff
you've gone through at the classes. Ill
let you know when ive had my classes
tomorrow what mines all about.
