Should my partner come?   Yes. If there are two parents, the class is for both of you. If you are single and will have regular support from a friend or family member, I suggest you ask them to attend with you.

Do we take this before or after the birth?   Either, but almost everyone takes them prenatally because afterwards you're kind of busy.
