Ante Natal Classes - First Lesson

With only 100 days left till baby comes along, we've actually signed up last weekend for the ante natal classes at the hospital. The fees for 5 weeks of classes came up to RM200. Not bad, hope to learn lots from the class. The nurse who was conducting the class was not a good presenter, she just kept reading from the slides and even reading also pronounce all the words wrongly. So bad ya focus only on peoples bad point. Can't help it! English also very broken, but she knows her stuff.

First lesson was on the importance of breast feeding and how to breast feed baby. They showed us a video on how's baby suppose to latch on to our breast. The daddies were looking weird and making silly remarks. Asking if they could get a copy of the video to take home. :P Unfortunately, is all about practicing and getting the hang of the real thing. Got to wait till baby comes first.

Next class is on Monday night, going to learn about labor pain relief and care of newborn. This should be interesting, hopefully they will get the dad's more involve.
