Class starts tonight

and I'm definitely nervous! I know its probably silly, but I still feel like I'm going to jinx this pregnancy. I know the Pgal worries never really pass, but sheesh. I also can't believe we're getting so close to the end. I'm happy about it but definitely anxious. Plus it will be the first time we go back to the hospital since Dh's granddaughter passed so he's nervous as well... I know it will be good to get more acclimated to being there for a good reason but still feels strange.

    Yay, what a big step! Doesn't it make everything seem a little bit more real? Is it a weekly class? I felt like that made everything FLY by for me.

    As for DH being back there for the first time, it will be tough, but at least it's happening before you go into labor. I can't imagine dealing with the stress of labor on top of the stress of that past loss all at once, so at least this will give him some time to adjust to being there.

    Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place.
    Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace.
    Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
    It all revolves around you.

    It definitely seems more real! Its a weekly class so I'm thinking December is going to fly by!  And I agree, we weren't going to take the class but then I figured it would be good for both of us to go back there and at least have some weeks of adjustment.

    Yes It's totally going to fly by for you! I felt way more prepared for everything after taking my class. Our class was a hypnobirthing class, but the thing that I felt really prepared me was actually getting to see and handle the interventions in class. I already want to go intervention free, but I think that if some of those things had been pulled out in the heat of delivery for the first time of me seeing them, I might have just about had a heart attack!

    Haha, and our teacher has been hosting it for 15 years and has never had a full class graduate, there is always someone that goes into labor before the last class. Well, considering that when the class first started, it was me at 33(?) weeks, and another girl who was 22 weeks, I figured that odds were pretty against me. Then we got two other girls the next class, one was 28 weeks, the other was 22 weeks. I was freaking out with the superstition of it all, and made a crazy effort before my last class to get things finished! It's all good in the end though, we were literally the first class ever to graduate fully intact!

    I think its going to be really helpful to see some of the interventions as well, as much as I want to avoid them, I totally agree I'd rather see them ahead of time to prepare better!!! I thought about taking the hypnobirthing but I've been doing a ton of reading and I'm hoping between that and this class I can go med free. I just need Dh to be fully on board, he tends to be a "do whatever the docs tell you" sort of guy so I'm really hoping he can get on board and step up if I need it cause yeah... in the heat of things who knows what will happen. That's awesome your whole class made it through, although I can't even imagine taking a class at 22 weeks - yikes! I definitely think having it later is good and will make 3rd tri fly by. Its hard to believe 7 more weeks... yikes!  You are so close, you must be so psyched!!
