Birthing Class

So last night it began. Our two and a half hour class each Monday night for the next four weeks so we can learn how this baby is going to actually arrive. It was very informative and I certainly was getting a lot out of it. Although some parts were making me very nervous. I only had to ask Dan a couple times if he was paying attention when he got his Blackberry out. The best part of all though was the last 15 minutes. We were being taught some breathing techniques and how to use imagery to concentrate. The lights were dimmed, there was some yoga music on, and everyone was silent concentrating on breathing. Of course Dan starts giggling just like the one time I invited him to come to yoga with me. And of course I start giggling too, I couldn't help it. We were so distracting and I was pinching Dan's arm so hard trying to keep myself from snorting. Thankfully he got up and left the room and I was able to quickly regain composure. I'm thinking it was a very wise decision to not go the hypnobirthing route- we never would have made it through the classes!
