Today Jordan and I went to a prenatal class at the hospital. It was an all day class that went over everything from why I am so uncomfortable to epidurals to the actual birthing process. This was a great learning experience and quite hilarious! The class really helped me realize that I am having baby! My brain went from "Oh fun we are having a little girl" to "Holy crap, we are having a baby"! It was really good for me to come to reality a little more.
The class ended with a video of several births. You see a birthing video in health class in junior high and high school but it doesn't really seem to hit home. However, this time.......IT HIT HOME! It made me so excited to have our baby and made me realize a little more of what I really have to do. Aah! Again, "holy cow we are having a baby"!
It was also great to look over and see Jordan's face. He looked somewhat glazed over....I think it hit him that his wife would be doing what the women on the video were doing. Great moment! :)
Overall, it was good for Jordan and I to learn more about the process and realize the very important road ahead.
I remember that class, did not like watching the labors!! Haha! You will do great!
