Fast Track Child Birth

So today we attended our child birth class, although we are just at 31 weeks, this weekend was the best weekend with our schedule's for us to take the class. The morning started off alright, it was more about natural pain management than about the nuts and bolts of what was going to happen. After lunch we got all the gory details. Mr. C and I were talking afterwards and he was like, it really wasn't that gross, I said no hunny you are used to field dressing deer, and seeing the inards of animals that you hunt and kill so you shouldn't be that grossed out. After the class was over we took a tour of the hospital and birthing suites. Overall i am glad that we went and feel that we both understand a little more about what could happen when i go into labor. At least now Mr. C knows where to go!

I scheduled my appointment for 9:30AM, knowing that i was not going to eat anything before the appointment, although it is not required to fast, they recomeended it. When I arrived, they drew my blood and then i waited for my appointment. I weighed in at 144, blood pressure was 122/68 and fetal heart rate was 140. The baby bump was measuring at 30 weeks, and I had no specific questions to ask at this appointment. After my appointment I took myself out to breakfast and then had a dentist appointment, what a fun day... not...
