Labor & Delivery - Class 1

Well, well, well. The first class of labor and delivery. To get us started we drive into the parking lot and there are 3 women who look like they need to be at the emergency room not the labor class with there pillows. Pillows? We didn't know about the pillows. We were the only ones without pillows. We didn't use them, so we got by with that one. So we get into the class and find out that everyone has laborphobia (the fear of labor). Not to mention one of the first things the instructor talks about is the video they will show next class and the man who passed out from it during the last session of the class. Oh great, there I am, the husband who will watch the video and pass out. At this moment you can see all the men in the room tense up and ask for an excuse slip for next class. Then as we are going around introducing ourselves we find out that there is one women who is due 4 weeks from tonight. Forget the video we might see the actual thing at class #4! Talk about passing out now. Then there was a women who is not due until June 7th, but she says the baby is ready to go now. That's fantastic, now we have 2 ladies who could go a t anytime. This is not what I signed up for. I just want to see Christina give labor. Really, the class was good and I think it will be good for us. We will definatly get educated about the labor and delivery classes. I mean if it takes me 4 weeks to figure out how this baby is going to come into the world, it's got to be good. Well, that's it for now, we'll talk to you soon.
