About $200 for us too; it's an all day class with hospital tour and also came with a free separate bf class.

I don't remember exactly but it was a 2-day, 6 hr per day course for somewhere around $150.
@bluestriped bee: We got insurance to reimburse a large chunk of ours, you should see if you can too!

100 for 3 3 hour childbirth classes thru our hospital. I'm thinking about a baby care one as well that will be another 35 dollars, but other half thinks we should skip it

I took a free pregnancy/childbirth class at the birth center. They also offered a breastfeeding class that was also free.

I was planning on paying $280 for a package that includes two five-hour birthing classes, a breastfeeding class, and an infant care class, but this thread is making me reconsider!

Ours was free. It was provided by the hospital we were delivering at. They offered quite a few classes, and each session came with food. DH was a fan of that. lol

I took a free course through the library which was hosted by the city. It was 4 classes 2 hours each.

My childbirth class provided by the hospital was $170. My insurance paid for it though.

I want to say $300? For a 12 week course, about 2 hours per week. DH balked at the cost initially, but even with not finishing we were both really glad we took it.

Dang that's a lot! We're taking classes offered through the hospital and it's $20 for each class.

They were free through the hospital. I think there were 8 sessions, though not all of them were particularly interesting or relevant

I think ours was $80 - we did the six-week course with 2 hour classes each. It was childbirth + "babycare basics" + hospital tour. I didn't take a breastfeeding class, but my OB's office offered them for $20, I think.

@catlady: @lovehoneybee: Oh, I might be able to use our FSA to pay for it. I should call my insurance and see if they will reimburse me.

We took hypnobirthing classes. 5 weeks for 2 hours each was $325 and we're getting $65 back from our insurance. We're also taking a newborn care class through our hospital that is about $30.

Ours was $150 for a six week class taught by our doula. It was awesome!
