So today, Matt and I went to the new and improved version of lamaze class that they have renamed "The Prepared Childbirth Class". It was fairly uneventful, and I didn't learn nearly as much as the breastfeeding class that I took a couple of weeks ago. That's not to say I didn't learn anything at all. We did get to take a tour of the labor and delivery unit in the hospital which was very helpful. And.....I do feel better about the birthing process. After learning about the stages of labor, and their expected time frames, I feel fairly confident that I can make it through a natural birth. That is of course, if everything goes as planned. Fingers Crossed. The epidural still scares me more then giving birth, although I have a feeling that if things start to get complicated that I probably wont care nearly as much. Lets just pray for an easy, speedy and uncomplicated arrival for Monty :-)
