Yesterday, on Valentine's Day, we attended the childbirth class at Mary Immaculate. It was a long, seven hour class, but we survived. Chris did a great job being a coach... however, I wasn't in labor so it was pretty easy. We learned about relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and the stages of labor. I hope we remember everything! Our instructor was awesome and she gave us her number if we need anything or have any questions.
So far I feel great! I am REALLY excited that I got into my Jimmie Johnson shirt! I was nervous that I wasn't going to be able to fit in it for the biggest race of the season... the Daytona 500! I am going to start walking on the treadmill this week and make my last attempt to do step aerobics. I have to admit that it's getting very hard to see where my feet are going to land on a step. It's pretty funny to watch me in the class. Oh, by the way, a HUGE thank you goes out to the women in my step class for the "surprise shower" and the gifts. I appreciate your friendship and your thoughtfulness! I will miss you after I deliver, but I will be back :0). The swelling has started in the feet as of the 33rd week; however, I can still wear my rings and watch... for now. Physically I feel great and I have a lot of energy... I love being pregnant. Baby Obo is constantly moving now. He responds to my students, music, and loud voices and noises. We can see him move across my belly and it's amazing to watch. Many blessings and thank you for your continuous prayers for a safe pregnancy!
