We start birthing classes July 1, 2009. They will be every Wednesday at 7pm for 12 weeks. We hope to have a natural birth and we'll be using the
Bradley Method®.
What is the Bradley Method®?
The Bradley Method® teaches natural childbirth and views birth as a natural process. It is our belief that most women with proper education, preparation, and the help of a loving and supportive coach can be taught to give birth naturally. The Bradley Method® is a system of natural labor techniques in which a woman and her coach play an active part. It is a simple method of increasing self-awareness, teaching a woman how to deal with the stress of labor by tuning in to her own body. The Bradley Method® encourages mothers to trust their bodies using natural breathing, relaxation, nutrition, exercise, and education.

Our prenatal appointment with Mary on Monday went well. My blood sugar test was great (no signs of gestational diabetes), pulse, blood pressure, and urine test were all great.
Audrey's heartbeat was great, though she didn't want to be be bothered—she started kicking when Mary tried to feel her position and listen to her heartbeat LOL
All is good - my tummy (uterus) is measuring right on track!
