Nipple to Nose- Another Initiation Rite

Well we are full steam ahead in this final stretch of pregnancy. We had our first class this weekend- Breastfeeding Basics and Beyond. It was a little overwhelming yet very informative. You gotta love a class when the first words the teacher says are "Hi, please sign in grab a baby and a boob" I thought I was going to have to pick Simon's laughing self up off the floor. We were the first to arrive. The next two ladies came without a support person and Simon was eyeing me intensely with a look of- Ahem do I really have to be here followed with a I will hurt you if I am the only guy. But most other women brought their husbands as husbands are encouraged to attend. We had to hold back laughter at many points.

I took the breastfeeding class first because honestly I am pretty nervous about it. Secondly, I wanted to make sure I registered for the right things as far as feeding my baby girl go. Lastly, you have to start somewhere- right? They went over everything from cream, to bottles, to cleaners, to pumps, to pillows. When I asked Simon if he learned anything he said - Nipple to Nose which is obviously the techinique for proper latching- but I found it hilarious. He is a great sport and will be a great dad!

Nursery Update- the painting is pretty much complete so we started putting the furniture up. Look for the big nursery reveal (Move that Bus) soon.

There are so many things going on right now I will try to keep everyone as updated as possible. I have a dr. appointment Thursday (we go every 2 weeks now) and Jenni's Pictorial Debut is this weekend the 3D/4D ultrasound- I CAN'T WAIT!

Hope all is well with everyone.
