Me and Mr went to our first prenatal class at TMC parent craft, this is something we both looking forward to cos' we both have no idea on how to take care of a baby, or how giving birth gonna look like. So here we are, signed up for the popular consultant, Mrs Wong Boi Boh's class. Have to admit her class is very interesting, not boring, and sent everyone laughing with her expression and words.
Before everyone arrived, she put up a video on how to breastfeed and the benefits. It was really kinda of weird, though everyone is married there, but still seeing the ladies on the video doing breastfeed, does seemed to be a little .. "RA". Hahaz..
The class started off a bit lecture on how preggies should get up from bed, etc. These already set us laughing when she did all those wrong methods.. Next then we have to personally do the exercises she shown us, and she too, get all the Papas to do it as well, and also teaching them how to lift us up in case we don't have the energy to do it oursleves. And I love the hand massage that Papa should help us with, to prevent our hands from being swollen before or after giving birth. Today I realise that my fingers are getting abit of swollen, cos the ring on my finger becomes SO TIGHT! My GOD!
Overall the class is very good, also teach us ladies on how to do proper exercise to prevent backaches, to have a good posture, etc, and also taught Papas how to talk and communicate with baby inside and how to make baby react to their touch.. but ended up, when Mrs Wong asked all the Papas "Did the baby move?" All replied "NO!" haha.. farni.. maybe all the babies are being defiant.. hehe.. when Mr's hands were away, girl girl start to move and kick me during the class.. very noti... :)
We also given lectures on nutrients and the proper diet we have to take. Then when Mrs Wong wanna teach us how to count how much calcium we all have for each day, she decided to pick a quiet one to ask. We were sitting quite infront, and I realise Mrs Wong kept looking at us during the class, and she turned to our direction, I was getting scared.. She suddenly said the lady in green.. then I gave a OH NO expression, then lucky she say the darker green beside me! Wow heng leh! If she gonna ask me, so afraid she said I ate too much! Hahaha...
And oh, she said DON'T GIVE BABY NAME AS OF YET until he/she come to this world, so can only call baby generically. She gave us an example which is super funny, there was this couple who know they got a son, and called him Timothy. When the boy came to this world, the grandparents don't like the name, and decided to call him Joshua. So when they called him Joshua, he has no reaction. Until Mrs Wong came by and asked, "I thought he was called Timothy?" The baby turned his head to Mrs Wong's direction. Haha.. So this tells us that baby are cleverer than we all think.
Can't wait to go to the next lesson... oooohh... Really beneficial, such that now Mr makes an effort every night and morning to talk to girl girl and kiss her.. and also Mr always "scold" me for not following the proper ways to get up from bed, etc.. :x
