Hi,
My first baby is due in October so I thought I would say hi and join this group!
I am in the process of looking into doing a calmbirth course and was just wondering if anyone could suggest the best time to do the course - i.e. is it better to do it later in pregnancy, so closer to the actual birth? Not sure what dates to book!
Thanks.

Hello!!
Welcome and congrats on your pregnancy
I did CB course in 2009/10 with my first - honestly i can't really remember when I did it (over a few weeks) but i had a decent belly on me! I think after 20 weeks.
The ideal is that you continue to practice your relaxation and breathing after the course finishes so you don't want to leave it too late that you don't get that extra time - but you prob don't want to go too early either! Call them up and check - they will probably have an ideal 'window' for the right balance.
