NCT or equivalent

[Sleepyquest]

So being an absolute dummy, I left it too late to book onto the closest NCT course in terms of my location and due date.

Therefore I'm wondering if anyone can recommend an alternative? Thanks!

It depends entirely on where you live. I did a non-NCT class (South London) and have a friend who did similar in another part of the country, but they were both companies that were specific to the local area.

Have you thought about hypnobirthing? We went to a 4 class course that was led by a midwife and included all of the info you need about birth etc. I've kept in touch with my group and found it really beneficial.
If that's not your kind of thing may be worth asking your midwife or doing a google search for antenatal classes in your area...
