Childbirth Education Classes (1/9/08-1/10/08)

Jeff and I attended Childbirth Education Classes this weekend where we learned about what to expect in labor & delivery, the labor process, methods of pain management including breathing and relaxation exercises as well as medication options. Toward the end of the class they also touched on newborn care. We got all sorts of handouts that we'll have to look at when we get back home. All in all I would say it was a good thing for us to do, since we at least know what to expect now.

As of now we are still in Minot. We drove up here on Thursday to avoid the bad weather that was on its way that night. Minot ended up getting about a foot of snow. We will be heading home tomorrow and hopefully the roads will be cleared so that we can make it to our house. From what we are seeing on TV and the internet, there is a blizzard expected tomorrow night!
:( I'm getting VERY nervous about not being able to make it to the hospital when we need to. Wish we could just stay here until the baby is born.
