Has anyone done NCT twice?

Hey everyone! So we did NCT with our first baby, not for the classes but for the social/support aspect. The group has been brill and we're regularly in touch two years later. I'd like to do it again but wondered whether it was more of a first time mum thing, as in my/friends experiences it's generally first time parents? I wouldn't want to rely on classes to make friends as they're all so cliquey, but at the same time wouldnt want to feel isolated in an NCT group by not being a first time mum/facing different struggles. Has anyone done it twice and how was it the second time? Thank you! X

They offer classes for second time which I did which I found helpful

I did NCT with first and like you met a great group but don't know of anyone that did it with a second. I joined a local pregnancy yoga group instead with number 2 and we have formed a great friendship group, made up of lots of second and third times mums. You could try something like that instead. X

I’ve not, but we had a mum in our group that was expecting her second. She had a bit of a gap between kids and didn’t know anyone in her area with babies, so was very honest that she was in it for the networking/friendships.

Agh that's a good idea @Gabby82! Xx
