This Saturday Jason and I will be taking an all day Lamaze class. It will be held from 10 AM to 4 PM with lunch provided; however, I hope they let me snack/graze throughout the day - HA!
I know it may seem a little early; however, I think it would be best to cover our bases now - then before I am immobile and in case of emergencies. Besides, they also offer a 'refreshment/crash course' for those wanting to feel extra-sure closer to the due date.
Nonetheless, so many people tell me that they either didn't take the course or else forgot everything they learned during labor. I think it will be best just to learn various techniques of relaxation and breathing that we can practice while I continue to experience Braxton-Hicks contractions (ie, false contractions that some women feel - it's basically your uterus preparing itself for labor). I also feel it will be knowledgeable for both Jason and myself to learn a little more about the labor and birth experience.
Anyway, should be jolly good fun - or else just a funny experience for us to share on our journey!
Have a great weekend!
