she's beautiful! I just read your story, I still have some time to go, but am already nervous. Would you say lamaze/ breathing classes are necessary? was your man/hubby in the room with you when Natalie came out? did he take those pics of her on the scale, etc? those are such great memories!

We did do a birthing class, and yes the relaxation techniques they taught us was what got me through labor. Especially holding off on the pushing. I know a lot of people say that they didn't need them, but I'm so glad I learned how to prepare for this type of situation,.

Yes my husband was there was in the room almost the whole time, they only made him leave when I got my epidural. He saw everything, even though before we went in he said he wasn't going to look when she was crowning etc. He did though and hearing him tell me that he could see her made me push harder, hehe.
He did take the pictures of her getting wheighed and all that good stuff. He also took video/

I want to take a birthing class, I am just entering my 7th month, do you think now's a good time? or 8th month? that is so nice, I am sure him being there encouraged you even more. those pictures are priceless.

Yeah I say it's a good time, you're close enough. I took a class that was a whole month long, so you may need to give yourself time, depending how long it is.
