[quote=Anonymous]I procrastinated on classes and ended up with an unexpected emergency delivery at 34 weeks before we took any. Honestly, it turned out for the best since I needed the c section before contractions started, we got extra attention from the hospital lactation consultants and feeding therapists on breastfeeding and we had a long/slow introduction to parenthood and techniques via the NICU. Not saying this to scare you but just because all the classes would have been a waste for us if we did them earlier so I'm pretty glad we waited and now would advise friends not to schedule one day/weekend classes until about 35 weeks when a baby would be more likely go straight home if born early.
