Preparing for Childbrith

We had our first Prepared Childbirth class on Thursday night. It's a 6 week course and the class is 2 hours and 15 minutes. Kevin thought that was a little long but we had a great time at our first class. Our instructor is very high energy and keeps things interesting. The other couples in the class are a good mix of personalities...I think we'll have a lot of fun these next few weeks. The first class was mainly introductions of the couples and an overview of what we'll be learning about the next 5 weeks. We even did a little bit of relaxation and breathing at the end of the class. There were two other couples that had the same due date: May 25th. One of those couples we chatted with a little bit at the break and found we had a lot in common with them. We're both having boys (with the same due date), both of us teach, we've had easy pregnancies and we were even wearing similar outfits. It was just kind of funny...we're hoping to get to know them a little better as the weeks go on. It would be nice to have friends with a child the same age as our own. I'm looking forward to the rest of the class!

We start our classes next week. As long as we finish before D-Day, I'll be OK. Thanks for the preview of what we can expect at our first class. We're getting close now, aren't we?!
