Baby groups

[An89]

Baby is 4 months and I have only just started going to one baby class and week. Is this too little?
Hate taking baby out as always cries and I find it so stressful being in the car or walkng with him

Not at all- baby groups aren’t a requirement. I would encourage you to build your confidence and to get out the house with the baby but that doesn’t need to be a baby group. Also please don’t worry no one cares if a baby cries- I had my eldest cry, fall asleep in classes, breastfeed throughout and miss any interaction- but it got me out the house and speaking to people again.

If you’re happy with it then it’s exactly the right amount of groups! There is no minimum required/recommended number. Personally I hate being stuck in with a baby so I got out to something almost every day, but if you don’t like going out then that wouldn’t be right for you. It’s fine!

It's not about baby groups but it does you both good to get out the house for fresh air (and movement for you).

Is he warm enough if he's crying when you leave with him in the pram?

The baby groups are for you, not for the baby. Don't go to any if you don't feel like it. Look at Dan Wuori's videos on Twitter if you want to see examples of babies developing through normal interaction at home.

Is it a group or a "class". Babies don't need classes.
Edit :
Sorry I worded that badly.
Babies don't need big paid for classes at 4 months.
It's good to join a group if you want to meet other new mums but the best type are the free (or couple of quid) ones like a Stay and Play. They are usually drop in style (you don't need to book or sign up for a certain amount of weeks) so there's no pressure that you HAVE to be there at X time. Sometimes there are sessions especially for new mums so ask your Health Visitor if there any local to you.
They are usually held in "Children's Centres" which most places have.
Rhyme time sessions at libraries are good too as they are usually relaxed and not formal
