HOORAH! My Lamaze!

So we were going to go to a local lamaze course at the hospital here in town but enrollment was super early and we missed the first two lessons. We were still going to pay for the whole course and go from there (my MIL was going to pick up the tab for us, hoorah!) but nobody at the course actually gave us a clear answer on whether we could go in or not. We were supposed to just show up and see if the instructor would take us. This kind of annoyed me and so I looked up other recommendations online.

And look what I found!

Laugh and Learn.

(mum, if you are interested, you can watch the first class online for free)

The DVD's are a two disk set and cover almost everything you can need, *including* lamaze/breathing techniques for a natural birth.

I'm very excited...IT ARRIVED ON MY DOORSTEP TODAY!!!!

Prepare at Home • Save Money • Save Time

This NEW and COMPREHENSIVE Childbirth Class, taught by certified Lamaze Instructor and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant Sheri Bayles,RN, covers everything you need to know in 6 fun to watch 45-minute sessions, a total of 4 1/2 hours - all in the convenience of your own home.

Anatomy and Preliminary Signs of Labor • Three Actual Signs of Labor
• Three Breathing Techniques • Labor and Delivery • Pushing
• Medications used in Labor • Induction • Forceps • Vacuum • Monitoring
• Cesarean Delivery • Post-op C/S • Postpartum Vaginal Delivery

Funny • Entertaining • Easy to Comprehend


Now it doesn't have the benefit of meeting other local mothers like the course downtown would have had, but there is the Auburn Mommy's Group I will eventually sign up for. And to tell you the truth, staying in and doing this at home with Brennen seems much more appealing to me anyway! We can do our classes together each day and re-do them whenever we want! Nekkid or non-nekkid! Playing the fool and giggling! Pootin' and tootin'! And I can also hand it along for my family to watch, my mum when she gets here and my MIL.

So.
I'm very excited.
But I am going to patiently wait for boy before I start watching it!!!
