Hi girlies
I have just got home from the first of 2 ante natal classes. The midwife covered the 3 stages of labour and the drugs that are available throughout labour.
To be honest there wasn't really much that she talked about that I hadn't read about/ been told about etc.
I am really miffed as she did not cover the different breathing techniques that coincide with each stage of labour!? I would have thought this was THE most important thing she could have taught us about?
The second class is about your stay in hospital and breastfeeding - which I don't see the point in attending as I do not intend to breastfeed...
I am totally shocked that they have totally left out teaching mums to be how to help labour progress by breathing correctly!
Were your classes the same?
