So Kirstie Allsopp (Kirstie's Vintage Home ect) has slated NCT classes.
The NCT - despite being a rite of passage for middle-class parents to be - does not prepare women sufficiently for the possibility of birth complications, she has claimed after she had to have 2 cesareans not by choice. She said she was made to feel like a failure for them not being natural.
She described its classes as "politicised?, ?dogmatic? and ?scary?.
I have booked some NCT, and my first is on January 19th, and i too have been warned about the stereotyping to younger mums/couples.
Me and my partner are 21, and if someone was too look down upon me, and talk to me like a child, my mouth may get the better of me.
Your thoughts/opinions?
