Okay mommas! I have had several people and couples come to me asking if I have started taking birthing classes yet (I'm 25 weeks) and it honestly has never crossed my mind. I'm constantly looking online and reading different articles about child birth and breastfeeding etc. I may not know it all but I've gotten very educated from just being curious. so my question is, are birthing classes really all that necessary?
you will freak until you give birth lol. Its just something we do. I can't think of a single woman who doesn't and has it all together.
I didn't take them you'll know what your doing when it's time and your body does most of the work for you
I've honestly been really nervous and freaking out for about a week now, ya know it's just all becoming real and I feel like I wasted to much time and am not gunna "get it all done". but I've been reading and am still kinda freaking out lol
mind you it was a 2 hour class one time. so pretty useless.
it was mandatory I take the one my hospital gave if I wanted to give birth there. it wasn't anything I hadn't already read about. its really a personal preference if you ask me.
lol no. I had my son at 17, never took a birthing class and my nurses and doctors were so impressed, said i was the best laboring first time mom they had ever seen. went through delivery like a champ and somehow managed to get it all with little advice from my doctor or nurses. as long as you remember to breathe and stay calm you're well on your way there. :)
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I need to ask someone this have you literally regret having a child with someone. I love my daughter with all my heart but I really regret ever being with her dad.

Natural Birth
Any moms out there given birth without meds? I have people asking me all the time if I'm going to get the epidural and I say no I will try my hardest not to. And some of them tell me that I will have in an get it, or they look at me like I'm crazy lol my sister in law, who is pregnant now with her first, told me there's no way I can do it without the epidural. She's getting the laughing gas.
I didn't take any. sometimes I wish I would have. other times I realize I know what to do and I'm glad I didn't spend the money.
