lamaze class

okay, thanks for enduring my brief foray into a political topic there. i definitely have some convictions about public and foreign policy, although i'm actually less 'partisan' than i have been in the past. i now have friends who are much more liberal than i, and also friends who are much more conservative (yes, it's true). besides, i wear one of those white 'ONE' wristbands, so you know that i'm a good and loving person. ;)

julie and i attended our first lamaze class wednesday. i really liked it, although the class was way too crowded. what's with all these people having babies these days, for god's sake?!

the class was much better than the la leche league 'class' we attended (which was actually more of a sharing session). this was extremely educational and interesting. i really did not know what was going on with the uterus and cervix during labor--very interesting stuff (my johnny carson routine here)... i'm glad i'm not having the baby myself.

the teacher was great, the other couples were nice... not too long... liked it. CAN'T WAIT for the baby! the lamaze teacher talked about how when the baby is born, if he/she hears the father's voice, he/she will turn her little head toward the voice. i seriously got choked up even thinking about that--hmmmmm.... wonder if i'm going to be a crying mess in the delivery room. probably not, because i usually 'ice up' during stressful situations.
