Last Monday night, Megan and I began our birthing class. Our second class was last evening. Overall, the class crawls by slower than a snail with an over-sized shell. I'm starting to wonder if the pillows you are required to bring are for the exercise routines or napping. Most of the information is on topics/concerns/issues that we have already read about via the Internet or other motherly experiences. There have been several breathing techniques that Megan says were relaxing, but when you're birthing a 7 lbs baby...that could go right out the door. However, last night we did watch a short video that showed the stages of labor. Now I know and realize that the birth of a baby is nothing short of a miracle, but couldn't God have made it a little more appealing? The most useful part of this class will happen in two weeks. On that night, we will take a tour of the birthing wing of the hospital. They will familiarize us with everything we need to know from the time that we get there, until the time that we go home. Hopefully, that will be worth the $30 dollars for this class.
41 days until the due date and counting...
