Birth class Q & A
Q: Will keeping a hand in a bucket of ice during class really approximate labor pain? A: Yes, more or less — just imagine the ice is the polar ice cap and you're slowly being crushed under it while somebody jabs an icicle in your spine.
Q: Will there be men in the class who snicker every time the instructor says the word "vagina"? A: Yes.
Q: Will my husband be one of them? A: Probably.
Q: Will it be annoying when he and the other men in the class high-five each other during the break and say, "Our boys can swim!" A: Yes.
Q: Will there be snack breaks? A: Not enough. Put small pieces of food in your hands and pretend you're biting your nails.
