I have been toying with the idea of hynobirthing classes which include a lesson on breathing techniques which would mean I do not need to attend antenatal classes. The thing that is putting me off taking a hypnobirthing class is that I know it would bore my husband to tears literally.
He is so keen to attend ante natal classes. He really wants to understand everything that is going on when it gets to the stage that he needs to hold my hand and tell me to 'breathe!'. He is so keen to play a part in the actual labour and has been excited about the antenatal classes since finding out we were expecting our first baby.
My dilemma is not only deciding which class to take but I am also confused as loads of my friends didn't even bother to attend the basic antenatal classes!
For those of you who already have children and attended antenatal - did you find the classes helped when you actually went into labour?
