Few Questions about Good Sam

Has anyone done the sibling class at Good Sam? Is it worth it? Is there a tour we can go on as well as the expectant parents? I didn't have my son in Good Sam so I don't know about much about it.

I saw online that the visiting hours for siblings are 2-5. Are they very strict about that? My son is 6 and is so excited to be there. If he is in school during the day, by the time my husband got him and got back t the hospital he would only have an hour or so there.

Also, on the website its said that they encourage the baby to be in the room with you all the time-does that mean they insist on it? I had sent my son to the nursery at night from 12-6 (although they did bring him back to me one night when he was really fussy). I had a c-section and had a really hard time the first few nights. I will be having another c-section and am afraid to be alone with the baby overnight in the beginning.

Thanks for any help/advice!

Few Questions about Good Sam

I delivered DS at good sam 17 months ago and will deliver DS2 there as well. I sent DS back to the nursery both nights I was there with no problems. I really enjoyed it there.

They have a hospital class- the only thing that was worth it was seeing the delivery room and maternity floor, but I could've gone without it! Maybe they have just a tour without a full class- call and ask!

Eta- I had everyone in and out all day. They're not strict about who visits when! I even had a visitor during the one quiet hour (it was the only time my sil could come and she watched DS while I showered!).
