Labor and Delivery Class

This weekend Todd and I had our Labor and Delivery Class at WakeMed.  Because of Todd's tavel schedule, we choose to do the weekend class instead of one night a week for 5 weeks.  It took up most of the weekend - 9am-4pm on Saturday & 9am-1pm on Sunday.  We thought the class was very informative and I got a lot of my questions answered.  There were 8 couples total in the class and it was nice to hear from other couples who are at the same stage in their pregnancies as us.  We learned all about the process of labor - what happens before, during, and after.  We also went over breathing techniques and different ways to get through the contractions.  We got a tour of the maternity floor which was very helpful.  We got to see the delivery room, nursery, waiting room, and we went over the process of having visitors.  The tour was my favorite part and it made me really excited for the big day!  Of course I'm getting a little nervous but I just can't wait to meet our baby!
