Childbirth Class and 30 weeks!

Saturday, April 21st Joe and I attended our childbirth class at the hospital where we plan on delivering Little Boy.  It was a long day!   It was scheduled from 12-7.  Our instructor went over a lot of questions and concerns that we had and we definitely got some good information.  The funny moment from our class was when our Instructor pulled out a chart showing the different stages of labor. The chart was broken down into stages, showing a face of a woman depicting how she may be feeling at each point of a non-medicated delivery.
  • First stage, normal face, things are getting started and she's still pretty comfortable.
  • Next stage, a worried face: she's starting to look like shes's in pain and not very happy.
  • Delivery stage, a crazy face and emotions including irrationality and anger.
Finally there's the picture of the woman who had an epidural, smiling and calm.  Joe looks at me and says "you're getting an epidural".  I had to laugh.  I'm really not nervous or worried about the delivery, just looking forward to finally meeting this little guy.

We are 30 weeks pregnant on Monday April 23rd and here's the latest picture...
