Second Time parent Refresher Antenatal Class 2nd September


Recommended Posts

The Group are a team of local practicing midwives that run Antenatal Classes for local parents and parents to be.


The next Second Time Parent group is running in The Lordship Pub on Sunday 2nd September. The course includes back up reading material and a hearty pub lunch!


A refresher class is a great opportunity for you to debrief your last birth with midwife and local mum of two Rachel, and with that in mind have realistic plans for your next birth. We also jog your memory on feeding and recovery as well as suggestions for preparing your first child to become a big brother or sister. Our relaxed and informal sessions create plenty of opportunity to get all your questions answered and chat to other local parents.


COURSE CONTENT

    • In fact most times things are none of our business but when you see something in your vicinity, you are interested! let’s hope we don’t see any vulgar nosey parker’s on the forum again!
    • I'm trying to get my head around why people think it's exceptable to completely waste you time on here. I give people my personal details ie home address/ mob nunber and you just never hear back from them. You waste your evenings or afternoons waiting for people to collect your items for sell for them to completely ignore your texts and calls. Or another great one is someone will ask if they can collect now then turn there computer off for a few days then ask if it's still available days later!! I'm just so confused with people's mentality on here how people go about themselves on this forum and not one person gets back to me just to say.... Sorry not interested now but thank you. Arghhhhh!!!
    • Do you really want the fox brigade onto you? there are too many people entertaining the foxes & feeding them! they are going nowhere
