This morning we attended a birthing class. It was us and 3 other couples. Very informative. A little overwhelming. I still have no idea what expect, but now have an inclination of an idea. There are so many side effects of it all, whether it's a vaginal birth or a c-section. I guess it really wouldn't be an issue if I knew that I was definitely going to be doing it vaginally. But at this point it's still a strong possibility that I might be scheduled for a c-section. So it's very confusing. It's all out of my control anyway, so I don't know why I'm working myself up about it. And a zillion women do it everyday...
So just sitting here trying to figure out what to eat for dinner. Bradley and I ate at Two Guys in Raleigh after the class. Yummy... but now I need to eat something healthy tonight. We're having severe storms here right now. So sitting here listening to the thunder.

Regardless of how you deliver...the most important class (which I did not take) is BREASTFEEDING!!! I am not kidding...the whole "it's so easy and natural"--BIG LIE. Not easy and not instinctual...although you may have a different experience. Go to a breastfeeding class and find a lactation consultant you like BEFORE you are weeping because your baby is crying right after you feed...not that I know anyone who would be going through that right now! LOL. Can't wait to see you this weekend!
