Hi there...have you gone to any ante natal class / parenthood class? care to share which hospital conduct the class?
is it that important that first timer parent to go to such class?

Last time I went to Pantai Indah, they organize the class FOC plus a lot of free gifts

We went to Gleneagles for the class. My friend went to Sunway hospital.

Both are quite good. Not sure about others. You can try call the hospital up to ask for the class schedule. Usually they will split it into few weeks.

Best is check the hospital that you intend to deliver your baby. Most hospital should have it...

PS: Frankly, Ante Natal class can be skipped, cause you can find those info on the net or talking to family members/friends who have experience already. But, since it is your first time... just go and listen... not expensive and won't take up much of your time

I remember they teach my wife the breathing technique.. but when delivery time... semua forgot... hahaha...

Ante natal class is very useful for fathers, since the moms tend to ask around for advices etc but the dads... not so much

We went to the one in Pantai Indah like moorish. Free summore with lunch provided. Good speakers, but when I was there, it was heavily sponsored by Wyeth & Stemlife (free mah) so you'll be bringing back a lot of brochures.

Prince Court got Parent Craft classes, but need to pay RM200 - got stuff from J&J.

thanks people...i oso thought it would be great if i oso go to the class...more formal knowledge compared to listening to akak2 in my ofis...hehe...

my wife planned to deliver at her hometown.... the hospital she wanted to deliver provides no such class... heard about ante natal class at Kuantan Specialists (KPJ Hospital)... will check for more info..

We went to the one in SDMC and found that it is very informative. Price at RM310 and was conducted by third-party, the course was helpful for us when we were expecting our first child. My colleague who recommended us is going back for a refresher course during her second pregnancy.

We are attending the Sunway hospital classes - RM300.

It's good to attend.. to learn about the hospitals procedures and stuff, when the wife is in labor..

they also teach exercises for delivery preparations.. last week we had a dietitian teaching us what, and how much, to eat while pregnant..

a friend is attending at SJMC as well.. =)

Hi, I'm 35 weeks pregnant, and just completed my antenatal class last month in Gleneagles Ampang. It cost RM180 for 3 session, which are held for 3 consecutive saturday, so hubby could attend (and should, because all the moms are with their hubby )

The topics is very useful IMO, it covers diet in pregnancy, exercise, labour process, breastfeeding, and taking care of newborn . And there's a tour to delivery ward, showing us the labour room and also post labour suites. Since i'm planning to labour there, so i find this very helpful

I found it useful too, also completed the class last month in Gleneagles. Same class.

I wish to take my wife for antenatal class .. she's 5 months pregnant now .. heading to 6 months next week. any advice on antenatal classes???? thanks

Looking for ante class too.

Call Jenlia Maternal Service, too bad their are fully book on Dec & no class on Jan.

having my check up at Gleaneagles, but heard that their ante natal class is so so only. SJMC is better but more expansive. Any comment?

How can we book a class with SDMC ya?

Just tell the nurse at the reception that you want to sign up. They will help you.

Just finished ante natal at sunway. RM300 for three days. Afternoon session 2 - 5.30 -for a couple (husband wife or Wife + female friend/family).

It was okay. They tell you things like breastfeeding vaccination, how to bathe the baby, how to give birth.. and the details of giving birth etc etc. how to clean your baby and stuff. I think the nurses will also tell you when you are admitted/discharged. Quite informative. Unless you already google everything at all times, then you'll feel quite bored.

Information is standard information and the free stuff is very little!

I think more worth it to spend the money on birthing classes or lactation classes. Maybe SDMC/sjmc is better.

Did hospital organize this antenatal class frequently?

I just call over to Columbia Asia @ Puchong they said they dun organize this class at the moment.

Where else i can find the related class?

My baby goin to b 12weeks. My wife searching for the related class.

ante natal classes available in KPJ damansara specialist hospital.
Charges are free if ur doctor is there and u intend to give birth there.

i didnt attend it.

Yesterday i visited the Sunway Medical webpage. Saw they provide the related class. Charges is bout RM300. Is this normal price?

KPJ Damansara got..i saw the brochure when i went there earlier this year..not that expensive altho i cant remember the price anymore..but i remember saying to hubby..the price is agreeable

Thats quite cheap laa

But buy a DVD & DIY at home also not bad

My wife prefer on site training.

Let her think how 1st lo. She carry the baby most ma.

i think my friend is attending 1 soon at tropicana medical centre, as we just live nearby, so we choose here, its a 1day thing, i think from 10 to 5, and its only rm 140 / couple, all meals included.
all speakers are doctor and they said got practical on how to handle your baby
