In the last few weeks I have finally become brave enough to read about child birth. I didn’t think that was ever going to happen. Really I figured Trent would have to tell me as I was in labor the dirty details about what was about to happen to me. However, one day I decided…ok I can do this. I am so thankful I did. I have learned a lot. Also, a good reason to read about it ahead of time, we did our birthing class a week ago, it would’ve been a bit awkward if I knew NOTHING about what was going on.
The class was actually pretty helpful. I was convinced it wouldn’t be, but I am glad we did it. It was also nice, because our hospital offers many different options for birth classes (7 week courses, 3 week courses or an all day option), we wanted to get it over with in one stop so from 9-5 (which ended up being 5:30) it was all baby. There was lots of relaxation ideas, the whole birthing process and a tour. There was lots more stuff, but those were the main points.
Fun little things about the class:
1. I was the only mother TERRIFIED and not just in love with the idea of the baby being squeezed out…well…you know where.
2. IU Health North has such great food
3. The woman sitting next to Trent, lifted up her shirt and was scratching and rubbing her bare stomach. It was awkward and HILARIOUS. You can just imagine how uncomfortable he was.
4. As I suspected, childbirth is not beautiful (we saw lots of videos)
5. 10cm is VERY big. EEK!
6. I am still in shock that the next time we go to the hospital, we will bring a sweet little baby home with us. <3
And here is our bump growing
We have hit the 3rd and final trimester!!! EEEKKK!!! Baby will be here so soon!!!
I feel like I have really grown a lot this past week! just 11 more to go!!!
