Had our second class last night, not as many things to report.

So I think I forgot to mention that a snack sheet was passed around last week and everyone gets to bring a snack. They said "no pressure" but of course, there is pressure so we signed up. Even though I'm thinking you know I paid for this class, you could provide the damn snacks that I don't want anyway cause I eat dinner beforehand. But alas. I figured we'd do a bag of pretzels or something. Last night's snack people brought like 80 kinds of hummus, chips, and veggies for the like, 8 couples.

We're supposed to bring next week's so now I have to actually put effort into it.

Anyway, they start with an anesthesiologist talking about pain medication options. He passes around an epidural catheter and talks about the procedure. DH asks me for my water. Doc keeps talking. DH leans over and says he doesn't feel good. Wait, what? Do you want to leave the room? "I better not get up right now". Ok, well, stop listening to the doctor and take deep breaths. Eventually, he's ok but we learned that DH will not be getting an epidural during delivery.

Then, the doc said if you wanted to come up and look at the other tools, needles, and such, we could. Most of us go up - DH stays put. I also notice that the fainting husband from last week chose to go look at the snacks then too. I was standing next to that wife so I leaned over and asked if her husband was also not a needle fan and she's like nope, last week we had to leave after the video because he felt faint. I'm like yep, mine is that way this week. We had a good laugh about it.
Someone asked if a woman has ever passed out getting an epidural and the doctor is like no, never had that happen, but we do have to watch the husbands because they'll flop right over. LOLOLOLOLOL, I elbowed DH on that one.

More chirpy cheerfulness from the instructor lady then at the end of class she mentioned someone had asked if we'd learn baby CPR in this series and she's like nope, they do offer it separately but not in this series because they don't have the time and stick to just the basics of infant care. I said to DH, I'm no expert but it seems like keeping them alive would be pretty basic.

I only used the bathroom twice this week so my score went down from last week. Maybe the new score should be how many fainting partners there are. Have to see if the streak continues next week.

You live in Wisconsin. The correct snacks would be brats, a block of cheese and a case of beer.

Holy cow I didn't realize some in that cargo shorts thread were serious oops we all make mistakes.

Nice birthing class update CG. I'm with you on it wouldn't be that hard to give you a baby CPR class, I would think an hour would catch it pretty easily.

The cargo shorts thread was getting heated yesterday. I think some of the stereotyping either way was getting a little out of hand.
 
Yeah it’s Rachel McAdams, sorry about that.
Sorry. She didn't say that. She's moreso known for this quote.

Good update. Once again, it was almost as good as a kickball update.

Also, why is DH so squeemish about the epidural? Didn't he grow up on a farm and see all kinds of gross stuff growing up? Maybe he just loves you too much.
