We attended our LAST class tonight! It was a newborn care class- very cool, tho the teacher/nurse was kind of ditzy.
They went over bathing, diaper changing, swaddling, SIDS, feeding shedules, poop-colors (yuk), crying, weight-gain, formula prep, umbillical-cord care, circumcision care, Illness and baby-blues.
We noticed we still needed to buy a few small items:
Gauze
Vasoline
Infant Tylenol
Cotton balls
Rectal thermometer

Cool terms learned
‘Milk drunk’ – when your baby is full it can get extremley happy
‘Tummy Time’ – important time when a baby is on its stomach, and gives it a chance to strengthen its arm/neck muscles
‘Pooplosion’ – use your imagination on that one (yuk)

It was a pretty good class! Now we’re supposed to be ready?!? Eeek!
