The ideal birthing class duration depends on your individual needs and preferences. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:

  • Time Commitment: Consider how much time you can realistically dedicate to attending classes.
  • Learning Style: Do you prefer a comprehensive hands- on approach or an information session online?
