one step closer

Tuesday, August 19, 2008

Last night Josh and I took our first baby-related class through the hospital. We go again next Monday night to finish up Breastfeeding Basics. After this class we're taking Child Birthing and then my due date is just right around the corner! When we arrived I had to find the bathroom first thing. As we wandered around the lobby, another pregnant lady turned the corner. She took one look at me, smiled and said, "The bathrooms are that way". Josh couldn't help but laugh.

The class itself was really informational. The first handout they passed out about the benefits of breast milk over formula was enough to convince me (not that I needed convincing). We also watched a video that made the process seem a bit easier than everything I had read. It's so much better to watch examples than just read about them.

During the first 45 minutes of class, Baby was kicking and moving like CRAZY. I was twitching and jumping the whole time. Josh said afterward that he thinks the baby is clairvoyant like my mom and could sense all the other babies in the room. Like, "Woohoo! Let's go play guys!". Or he thought the kid is going to take after me and be really excited about eating.
