Anna and I attended you class and had a wonderful time. Things did not go exactly according to plan, the doctors induced, and eventually we ended up having an epidural.  Most important to me was giving Anna the sense that this was not a failure, it was a different path to the same goal, and that is something you reinforced in your class.
