Childbirth Classes Over

Phil and I had our last childbirth class on August 1st. We both feel better prepared, or at least think we now know better what to expect. And it gave us some great ideas for pain management. If nothing else, it gave Philip the opportunity to torture me with ice cubs, packs, and water (in an effort to simulate a contraction Phil would put an ice cube or pack on my skin for a minute or he would put my hand/foot in ice water for a minute so I could practice using the pain management techniques we learned).
I'm still reading, exercising and being conscious of what I eat all in an effort to have a good labor. It is definitely my intention to have a natural childbirth, so I hope that it works out.
