To Prepare or to Scare?

Keith and I attended the childbirth preparation class a few weeks ago. The class met one day from 9-3, and I am still not sure if the purpose of the class was to prepare or scare us. Most of the information was informative. I definitely could have done without the video! I've seen a few videos of the birthing process, but this one beats them all. It was the most graphic think I have ever seen. (I think they should show it to high school girls-surely it would knock some sense into a few of them!!) We both walked away from the class feeling a bit overwhelmed. It was a lot to process in just a few hours.
