We completed our "prepared childbirth" class yesterday. We opted for the 1 day 8-5pm class offered by our hospital. Some of the info I already knew but it was definitely worth it for me. No matter what you read online or in books- you still never know what will be available/procedure at your specific hospital. I could not believe some of the people in our class. There was like 8 preggos and their coaches. We had a "baby thug" and his fiance who were due in a week (admitted they had no carseat- no pediatrician etc...) their biggest concern was putting the baby in their own clothes in the hospital nursery. I bet baby Roca-wear, Josy bets baby Fubu. 2 husbands were massaging their wives backs almost the whole class. One girl had her feet up on pillows because the chairs weren't comfortable. This same girl (who's about 35wks) made her husband put her shoes on her on after class. Trust me, I am a total back rub junkie (as Jody put it, lol) but really... for hours...in a room of strangers? I understand that these girls were 2-3 wks ahead of me but I think they're milking this. I'm kinda-sorta-a-little stubborn and controlling so the idea of having someone else prop up my legs or put my shoes on is just insane to me. Our instructor was really nice. Unfortunately, she had a family emergency and had to end class 1/2 an hour early so we missed out on the hospital tour. Oh well, we were just there 2 weeks ago for the twins- I'm sure not much has changed.
Speaking of those little peanuts...baby Reese and baby Rory got to come home yesterday! They weigh a little over 6 lbs each and are perfectly healthy. I can't believe how tiny they are. They are so content and adorable. Avery did great. She "gives the babies kisses"- which means she goes at them open mouth and kinda presses her mouth on them. She walks on her own for a few steps now- it's big news. We're so happy for Jesse and Kelly- they have a gorgeous little family.
