Baby School 101

I went to Childbirth Class last night. Willie was finishing up a sales course and couldn't make it. He didn't miss a whole lot. We reviewed some basic terms (like cervix, placenta, vagina and umbilical cord), watched a film where women gave birth in different positions and that was about it.

Hopefully next week we'll do more....supposed to bring our pillows so maybe it will be inter-active with our partners and we can learn different positions. Of course, that's what got most us there to start with!!!

Sweet Stuff

Willie and I went to the OB again last night. I ate Rice Krispies (with some sugar on them) and didn't even think about what it would do to my urine sample! Trace of protein and glucose +1...Dr Sullivan asked me what I ate right before I got there! She laughed when I told her. At any rate, I have a glucose test scheduled in four weeks. Can't wait to drink that sweet syrupy mess.

Anna is fine...heartbeat 133. Mommy, however, has gained a little too much weight in the past month. I won't go into details...but we are more than healthy right now. Too much Halloween candy I suppose.

After my next four-week visit, I will start going every two weeks. Seems like our first visit was just the other day.....

She'll be here before we know it!
