Last night and all day today we attended a childbirth class at the hospital where we'll be delivering. It was kind of the slackers' class--the one for prospective parents who didn't get around to signing up for the full, 6 week thing (or whatever) until it was too late. So the class was full of 30-35 week pregnant couples who, like us, hadn't gotten around to it. (In our defense, we have a number of excellent excuses, not the least of which is that 6 weeks ago we lived in North Carolina.)
We learned a lot in our short class, though, and we feel a little bit more prepared for what's coming. We also got a tour of the maternity floor, which was great. One piece of good news is that the whole floor has wifi, which means we'll be able to post pictures of the baby onto this blog and email very quickly--probably within a couple of hours of his birth.
We're thinking of taking another class or two, for fun and to get a little bit more prepared. Breastfeeding stands out as a good candidate.
It's getting real, people...6 weeks from tomorrow is our due date!
