Me neither! they sound like something you would get in the USA! it's not antenatal classes is it?

well to be honest im not 100% sure lol they asked if i wanted to go to them and i wanted to learn the breathing techniques and they do that, thats y i said yea. they also take you round the delivery suite and prepare you for becoming parents i think. tell you what to expect in labour things like that.

That sounds like antenatal classes! it may be the same thing but with a different name.

My midwife said we would talk about antenatal classes at my 28 week appointment.

Parent Craft are just the antenatal classes. From what I got told they will go through birth options and plans, show videos breathing techniques etc, however I will not be getting a tour of the labour suite due to hospital policy and cross infection
