Prepared childbirth class

yesterday we attended a day-long childbirth class. the instructor was great-full of personality and encouragement. we learned some breathing techniques for natural childbirth as well as coping mechanisms. we also got more info about epidurals and inductions and c-sections. there was a tour of the birthing facilities at the hospital (i will be delivering at a different hospital but it was still nice to get a general feel of the type of room). for what couldve been a very long day it passed rather quickly. i am gonna try going through labor without meds for as long as i can stand it, but i will say i have no problem with getting an epidural if need be!!!
