A kind guide to the pregnancy roadmap

Great chatting with other women at a similar stage in their pregnancies. It was great! I'm excited to take more classes with NR :)

So much knowledge, specifics, details and more!

Favorite part was the instructor. I’ve never felt so comfortable, welcomed and attended to in a class before. All my questions were answered and even above and beyond what I expected. I felt more at peace than going to a hospital or talking to a doctor. I’m so thankful for these instructors and resources. I can’t believe it was only $15. I will either donate or take more classes from this experience. Thank you so much for this!
