Breathing is complicated.

This is a direct quote from our birthing class:

Instructor: "Okay, everyone. Now we're going to practice the 'strong blow' breathing technique before moving to the 'soft blow.' Ready? One, two, three...CONTRACTION!"

Preggo: "I find that I'm getting a little dizzy doing this"

Instructor: "Well, are you breathing in before breathing out?"

Seriously. What would we do without this information?

Wow- I never took any of the birthing classes. I swear it really isn't that difficult to breathe when you're in labor/having a baby! Maybe they're really building your confidence in this area, so that when things feel a little crazy, you'll know "at least I can breathe".
