Current Mood: Anxious
Well today we got to go to our first childbirth class. That was fun but also a little scary. It is really real now! Our instructor was a sweetie and very informative. She went over the different stations of dilation, labor, delivery, what to expect and we also learned some common termanology.
Hubby was picking on me because I was the smallest one there. Everyone there was in week 30 or more except me and another woman. Of course she was only one week farther than me and she was bigger. Oh well, our baby is healthy and happy....and I have no problem with delivering a smaller baby in the end (:
At the end of the class we got our first tour of the birthing center and what our birthing room will look like. It was a huge room with a flat screen tv, (Hubby LOVED), stereo system, fridge, sleeper sofa for Daddy to spend the nights with Mom/Baby, rocking chair, dining table and chairs and even light dimmers! Everything will take place in the one room and we will stay in that room until we are released.
The bed was kinda scary though! The thing did everything but have the baby for you! LOL! Hubby got a kick out of the "squat bar". I won’t even go into that...lolol.
Sadly no babies were in the nursery but they told us they believe the babies should stay in the rooms as much as possible with the Mother and Father to bond. We did see one woman coming in that was ready to deliver and she looked quite stressed...lol. We also so the doctors rushing in for a c-section so that was exciting.
Overall we are very happy with the hospital and staff and are eager for that time to come for us! I can’t wait! I’m so excited, and so is Daddy!!!!!!
