Chdbirth class: H and I are basically 12 year olds

[Deleted]

We've got to be the least mature people in the room. We actually kept a tally of the number of times "vagina" or "vaginal" was said. 16 over 6 hours; 5 in the first hour.

I made me think of the movie, I think it's "Frida Night Lights" during the sex ed scene. "penis penis penis, vagina vagina vagina." lol!

We're doing a sort of boot camp class from 8am-2pm today and Sunday. I've been pleasantly surprised with how supportive of natural labora they've been so far.

DH & I took one years ago & something that wasn't that funny became hilarious because we were in "class" & supposed to be mature/paying attention. I was crying from holding in my laughter & DH was no better....So yeah, we were those people too.

We were that couple too, lol.

We were trying so hard not to crack up in our BFing class earlier this week because they showed this terrible 90s video with these women asking VERY SERIOUS QUESTIONS. It was hysterical.

The "vaginal/ vagina" count is up to 16 today already, and we have 2 hours to go.

Despite our lack of maturity, I've really enjoyed the class an am really pleasantly surprised with how much it's made me look forward to labor and delivery.

My H wasn't a fan of the idea of childbirth class to begin with, then the instructor announced "I just LOVE breastfeeding!" and he about lost it.

i'll totally be that person.

it's so much funnier when it's inappropriate to laugh.

I was fine (DH wasn't, there were times I couldn't even look at him because I would have busted out laughing) until they showed the 80's style childbirth video. That shit is funny. They totally need to update their materials.

H and I were the exact same way! Although I found the BF'ing class to be the worst. It seemed like the only videos they showed were of women with *gigantic* nipples. OMG it was awkward.

Our class was also very supportive of those who wanted to go natural. The person who taught the class went natural but ended up with a c-section. I was kind of surprised how supportive they seemed because I always hear "all hospitals want you to get epidurals!" on the bump.

I'm concerned for both DH and I as we're 12 year olds too.

Like after our first ultrasound, he called the tech Mr. Wizard for getting all science on us (you know using words like placenta and cervix).
