As the economy has dipped and many people are having to tighten their spending, I have noticed pregnant women are still finding birth preparation a valuable place to spend their dollars. For me, this speaks volumes on how today’s pregnant woman has the ability to prioritize what is important to her. That investing time, energy and money into classes and prenatal counseling to prepare for one of lives biggest moments is worth it. I feel grateful to be in a community where the precious moments in life are worth preparing for.
