Erika Jo said, "I took this course and LOVED it! I would definitely recommend this to anyone having a baby. It helped me and my husband understand things and become comfortable with what to expect in general. We both felt much less terrified about the whole process and were as prepared as you can be for childbirth. Nothing about my birthing experience followed what I had planned and if it weren't for this course, I wouldn't have understood what was happening and would have been taken by surprise by everything. Leigh made it possible for me to still have a great experience even though nothing went as planned."
