I am at my 32 weeks mark today and everything is going just great still. I am now seeing the doctor every two weeks and we signed up for several classes to prepare us for labor and delivery. One is just a prenatal class for couples on hospital procedures, labor & delivery procedures, getting an epidural, managing last trimester concerns, and some basic breathing and relaxation. we also signed up for an extra class on breathing and relaxation that goes into more depth. I will also go to a class on breastfeeding. So we are way excited! I think we will really need these short classes though, cuz this week at our appointment when the doctor was asking if I plan on having an epidural or not, I think he could tell how totally clueless we are about everything. He seemed like he was trying to get a feel for how I was feeling and how nervous I am... but I really have no clue what to expect at all, so I don't even know how to feel. He was briefly talking about how there are some different options about different things and that they would help and support me in whatever I feel I should do to as much extent as they could. But I don't even really know what different options there are besides whether or not you get an epidural. Anyways, we are pretty easy going and laid back about it all, not really many worries. Maybe once it gets closer, I'll start thinkin about more stuff, but as of now we are just pretty much like "whatever works.." So anyways, thats the latest update on me and "lil D".

My brother-in-law said, immediately after their first child, that the epidural was the best $300 he ever spent. They were students at the time, and the first labor pretty painful for my sister... until the blessed epidural.
You look so cute!! I love your belly!! Can't believe how soon it's coming... Oh my goodness...
