Childbirth Classes: Final Week

I think I may have skipped some updates on the childbirth classes. That's probably because they were all about the same. We would learn about the birthing process and then she would teach us different breathing and massage techniques to cope with the pain. I enjoyed all of them. I felt like I got a lot of really good information and I actually feel prepared to give birth. I especially liked it when we got to practice the massage techniques and I would just lie there while Ben rubbed my back. That was nice. :)

This final class was our breastfeeding class. We had a different instructor. I liked her enough I guess. The class was incredibly informative though. We went over the correct breastfeeding techniques as well as some troubleshooting if things aren't going quite right. She also gave us a bunch of different numbers to call for support if I need it. I feel very confident that I will be able to breastfeed which makes me extremely happy and relaxes me a lot.

All in all, I would highly recommend the Non-Medicated Childbirth class through Tri-Health to anyone. I feel so much more confident and I actually feel prepared for the birth of our baby. Now we'll just have to see how confident I am about actually raising this child!
