@NaturalMommy100 I think it seems amazingly PAINFUL, but hey, I'm only 17 xD

I soooo agree about people not connecting with birth. When I tell people I love giving birth, and I love doing it without pain management, I get the STRANGEST looks. Sometimes I wonder if I really am insane, but mostly I feel bad that many women don't get to experience how amazing birth is.

Those pictures will be really awesome for the baby book! Thanks for sharing. This class sounds a lot different than the one I went to at the hospital last pregnancy. We didn't like it, but this one sounds more informative. They did make it feel more like going in for a procedure.

this was very helpful, I am terrified to birth a baby. I would love to hear about all the other classes you have.

aww! That art idea is clever! I think Colby's looks like a mini him in a onesie. hehe Cute! I think it's awesome to make a plan and still go with the flow. That's going to be my plan! Try not to get to bent on the "perfect" delivery and just remember however it happens, your little man will be in your arms! :)))

I love your view on the birth being an experience that is so special and life changing! These classes sound great! Loved both of yalls drawings too!

[TheBabybound]

This class sounds great! I love that there is so much positivity being centered around the actual birth process. I am happy that this is something that you and Colby are doing as a couple. Childbirth should include the partner, I cannot imagine doing it alone. Best of luck!

I am doing a Birthing from Within class too!! :)

That class sounds really great! I'm glad you guys had a good experience your first week. I love that Colby drew Maddie to look like a lion. :) Hehe.

That is a great analogy about the pain being worse than you expected... it's completely true. You can't expect the amount of pain you'll be in until it's there.. even though I know it's something every woman could completely handle (if they wanted) I think it's harder to picture the first time around. Sounds like a great class!
