Maternity Tour

This is what Siri's nursery will look like.....we didn't want the whole room pink though.

We just got back from a 2 & 1/2 hr Maternity Tour at the Kaiser Hospital in Anaheim. It was a very informative session talking about all the different prenatal education classes they have available, the different hospitals you can choose to have your birth, what to do when you start going into labor and about what to expect once you get to the hospital. You know they actually advise us not to go to the hospital until your contractions are about 2-3 minutes apart....good to know...you always see on TV that they go once their water breaks! Great news is that all rooms are private....so no sharing. Also, all the rooms are nicely decorated and all have a flat screen TV, restrooms and showers. I can have up to 3 support persons during my delivery......but even so, I think it'll just be my mom and Charles. I can't imagine anyone else who would want to experience my pain of going through labor!! Well next week we start Childbirth Preparation classes every Thursday night for the next 5 weeks....basically up until I give birth so that should be really helpful. This past weekend was great.....I spent Saturday with Vanessa and we had breakfast, did a little shopping (been buying Baby Siri lots of clothes and other things) and ended our time together with a nice massage in Brea :) Then on Sunday we did some more work on Siri's nursery with Charles putting up the new baseboard, chair rail and crown molding. I helped whenever I could with measurements and painting. My work will come once all the furniture is put together......when I can start decorating! I can't wait, I'm so excited to get that done :) Here are some pictures of Charles hard at work!
