I was told it's mandatory if you are having your hubby or someone else in the room - I guess its to prep them for things that might happen?

I may be delivering at Good Sam. Who notifies you of this class? I'm 18 weeks.

This is only for scheduled C-sections right?

Nobody- you have to call and make an appt.

I was told I had to take it regardless of scheduled C or not. It was a big fat waste of time, and DH asked around at the hospital to those who did have a C and nobody was asked for their certificate.Chat Icon

Re: mandatory c section class at Good Sam

i just had my lamaze on Saturday and they told us that the C-Section class is mandatory for EVERYONE..even if its not a scheduled c-section.

**IF YOU DO NOT SHOW UP FOR THIS CLASS YOUR DH WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE ROOM WITH YOU.**


ETA: From what I heard if you don't take the class they will know bc you will be asking questions about the paperwork that you would know about from the class.

Do all hospitals have this policy or is it only Good Sam?

Re: mandatory c section class at Good Sam

I had a c-section and did not take the class- although I had already had a c-section previously at a different hospital.

My doctor said it was BS and to not worry about it.

they told me it was mandatory but they never have asked anyone i know who had a csection there to produce the paperwork. We went regardless but i dont thnk you really have to. i wasn't willing to risk it though.

Re: mandatory c section class at Good Sam

they said it was mandatory --- but i ended up with an emergency c section three weeks early -- we had taken the course and gotten the certificate and of course not had it with us --- and it was never mentioned or asked for...

and as my DH had said "let them try to keep me out of that room when DD was born"

so i wouldnt worry about it - i think they just want more people to be prepared about what they might see
