Pre-natal classes: Lamaze

I highly recommend that you attend the Lamaze class at the hospital where you will be delivering. Take your partner with you, most pregnant moms do. The Lamaze class is not all about breathing. They will walk you through everything from what to do when you start contractions all the way to what to do with a newborn (changing diapers and bathing). Since it's given by the hospital you get an added benefit because they walk you through additional things such as where to enter the hospital, how to register, what your room and the baby care rooms look like, as well as what to expect from your nurses and doctors. While some may say this additional information is a no brainer, when you are in a hurry and panicked it helps to bring about some calm knowing where you are supposed to go. Schedule a class today! There is no such thing as too much information where caring for a newborn is concerned.
