Prenatal appointment numero dos
We had another group appointment last night. I was freaked out to learn that I've now gained 14 pounds. Ack, already?! My midwife even implied I should slow it down a bit (and now I'm eating donut holes our VP brought into work, oopsies) But, babys' heartbeat is good at 150 and my belly is measuring on track. I was also told not to worry about him not being as active as I was expecting as he is still little and he might be turned towards my back (which he was during our ultrasounds). Then during the class, it seemed like the little guy moved around quite a bit!
The class covered parenting, which was fairly pointless since she just had us share our favorite things about growing up and encouraged us to talk about parenting styles at home. Then we watched a breastfeeding video and talked about how Fairview helps new moms get into the routine of things. Not going to lie, the video had both Zach and I cringing a bit! Hopefully we have a strong latcher and eater-shouldn't be a problem with how much his mom and dad like to chow down!
Next class we watch the regular birth video and the following class we watch a C-section birth and waterbirth. In July we finally get to tour the birthplace and meet with our lactation consultant!
