[QUOTE="shadowtalker1, post: 2306933, member: 803877"] I'm just stunned at your husband's lack of caring. Wow. Yes, you are the one giving birth, but his presence there means (or can mean, I should say) everything. He's a big part of this whole process, too, and I'm a little concerned he's so detached from everything. What in the hell does he think life with a baby will be like? Anyhow. Yes, I found it worthwhile to go to the classes. Not the week-long ones or anything like that (unless you're doing Lamaze or something), but I found it really helpful to tour the hospital, see the maturnity wing, see where we'd stay while there, etc. Kind of just everything to reality, you know? And I guess people attend alone, but I'll tell you, you're going to feel really, really lonely. Having a baby is a big deal (whether it's your 1st or 15th) and I can't imagine anything lonlier than sitting all by yourself at one of these classes when everyone else has their partner. [/QUOTE]
