Always have been skeptical about these kind of stuff, and of all the people, my gynae was the one who handed me a brochure of it during one of my earlier visits.
It is one of the many antenatal (well now they give a more holistic name to it…liao) programmes offered by our local hospitals. I hate all these….dunoe..why.
I chucked it aside for as long as I can remembered, until Kelvin asked me about it…just a month ago and urged me to give Mt Alvernia Hospital a call to enquire on their childbirth education programme.
On the hindsight, I was glad and happy that he remembered about this whole thing cos I told him before that it would be ‘good’ for him to know..why? Because..by going to the classes he can understand better about pregnancy…(heheh…yah rite..as if lor) ..the real rationale is for him to share my pain and difficulties mah..and be more considerate ehhehe…
Everything went on smoothly, from the enquiry to getting ourselves a place in the class and to the start of class. The class started on last Friday – 3rd Oct 2008.
3rd Oct is a memorable date..cos 10 years ago..we officially became a couple…hehehe…so embarrasing….to mention it here. Coincidentally, on this date in 2008 we are spending this special day with our Lil’ One at the first class of this programme, making it even more memorable.
The classes, consisting a total of 6, will be conducted at Mt Alvernia Hospital. But, last Friday class was abit disappointing in terms of its content, it was on pregnancy nutrition. I was expecting something more…*sigh*…but its gd for Kelvin to know…cos at the end of the session, he realized that his calcium consumption is too little….that’s why he got very soft nails…hah! Its more of a reassurance for me..as to whether I am eating properly.Well, the session lasted for 2 hours..with a few yawns here n there from the both of us..hehehe. I looked forward to the next three sessions where we (the pregnant women) will be learning n doing some stretching exercises…but hor I dunoe what the husbands 们 going to do leh?
Will update u guys on my next lesson..hehehe
