Ryoji and I went to the birthing film night at the hospital this week, which was part of our "Enriched Lamaze" course. We saw several vaginal births, medicated and non, saw a film on Cesarian though they didn't show the actual surgery just a few stories highlighting different reasons to have it done, and also a film on epidurals. All in all, I felt it was a waste of time, nothing we couldn't just watch at home on YouTube and not be stuck at the hospital after work and getting home at 11pm on a work night!!

But one fun thing that happened was Ryoji got to experience the wild belly dancing that has been going on with Akapanchan recently!! I had on a fitted polkadot shirt, and when Akapanchan started rolling and jerking and kicking, you could see it sooooo well and we both stared gape mouthed at my belly for a good couple of minutes going "holy crap, what's going on in there!?!?!". It's so interesting!! What I wouldn't give to have a window to see what's going on in there - the movements, the facial expressions, oh gosh!
