Should I Take Bradley Classes?

I am trying to decide whether to spend the extra time and money on Bradley classes when I am already paying for a doula. I also have a great doc who is very non-intervention and on board with my natural birth. It is going to be hard for me to come up with the extra money to pay for the class but I can probably scrape it up if it is really worth it. Any opinions?

It's not really worth it, you're doula will be able to offer you the same if not better than what the bradley class will. You can read up the information without having to take the classes and benefit the same way. What classes do mainly is help you connect with other expecting moms but the information is basically all the same. I took classes with my last pregnancy and signed up for them with this one but now it seems pointless and I don't think I'm going to attend. Of course if you feel you need it go with your gut but it seems like overkill to me.
