Twins Birthing Class

The twins birthing class was about as enjoyable as you can imagine. There was lots of groaning when the video of the mother of twins giving birth  came on - without any medication, including gas and air, which apparently isn't given in the States.

It was great to be with other people in the same boat, though strange that I wasn't the 'special' one in the room, as people normally have loads of questions for me. It seems like most of the mothers in the room were going for placenta encapsulation, i.e. where they dry your placenta and put it into capsules so you can enjoy it for years to come. Not sure how I feel about that.

We have a reunion on September 13th when there will be 10 screaming babies in a room together. Oh Lord.
