This week has been another busy "baby" week so far. Monday: Kasey and I toured the lovely New Bern hospital. The staff of nurses seem to be really nice and informative. They have an I.D. system that keeps the baby very secure while in the hospital. I just hope the food is good too :). Tonight was the last of 6 child birth classes. We had a guest speaker, a local Pediatrician. He was very helpful with breastfeeding tips, sleeping habits, and other topics dealing with a newborn. He told me that if Gavin had a close family member that is lactose intolerant, then I could pretty much count on our child being intolerant too. So a special "Thank you" goes out to Papa and Adam!
Here are some pics of our class (with one couple missing). The last picture is of our great teacher...
I highly recommend child birthing classes to first-time moms. I truly learned a lot of valuable information. Tomorrow night is the one and only breast-feeding class. Hopefully, with all these classes, Gavin will be set up for success or, at the very least, I will have another degree in child rearing...either way, it was well worth the time and money!
