    Braxtons will stop in the shower or bath huni. And POO to your OB.
    It's abit late now to worry abour classes.
    We can give you a crash course on here

    You will do great hun. Be strong and believe in your body. Have your shower, relax, have a nap if you can and most importantly, try not to stress out. That will only slow your body down.

    You CAN do this. Infact... You ARE doing this!!

    Lesson #1 - stay calm!!
    Lesson #2 - take a bath/shower, watch a movie. Whatever it is that will relax you
    Lesson #3 - Don't be too focused on timing your contractions when they start. Just take it as they come. Have someone time them for you, but you don't need to know how far apart they are, especially at the beginning.
    Lesson #4 - Rest whenever you can. If it's only braxton hicks, then it's important to get some sleep tonight, as labour might only be hours/days away, and you need all the energy you can get.
