Countdown

Bradley Class

I had my midwife appointment today. I lost a pound since last time but Linda isn’t too concerned since my belly grew. I think I lost the weight doing housework actually. Since I am not on my butt at work all day anymore I have been a lot more active, I have been taking long walks in the park every morning too.

Today was Michael and my last Bradley classes (childbirth class.) We had a potluck (I made that vegan fudge for it.) We started the class 12 weeks ago with eight couples and now we are down to three (the couple in the far left of the photo had their beautiful baby boy two weeks ago but brought him today for us to meet! One other couple also couldn’t make it to this last class.) Jennifer Trunkey was the most amazing teacher, I highly recommend her to anyone local looking for a Bradley teacher. She is amazing.

I am really going to miss class, it was a beautifully supportive environment, though there has been some talk of a reunion a couple months after our babies are born (I think the last one is due in July. I am the next one due!) I really loved the class and feel it has helped Michael and I prepare physically and especially emotionally for labor and beyond.

Today marks 40 days to my due date but I do not feel stressed, I feel prepared and ready to face this upcoming remarkable transition. It is such a wonderful feeling knowing that we are soon going to have a precious beautiful baby.
