Birth Awareness Class

Tonight we went to our first Birth Awareness class. Nichole felt bad because she thought she was the oldest pregnant woman there, but I don't think that's true... and she was certainly the prettiest.

It was an interesting class, mostly. OK, it was kind of boring. I'm being honest. It lasted nearly 3 hours, and they could probably have cut it down to 90 minutes at most. We watched one of those birth videos (very graphic) and they told us all about what to expect. Of course, no two births are the same, so telling you what to expect is a bit of an oxymoron, since you can't expect anything to be the same for you as it was for someone else. Your mileage may vary, and all that.

We have to go to class on a different night next week, and it's supposed to be a different instructor. Wonder if it will be any more interesting?
