DISCUSSION

A. Ways to prepare for labor

Your body naturally prepares for labor on its own, but there are a few things you can
do to help lower your stress.
1. Take birthing classes.
Birthing classes can answer a lot of your questions about what will happen
during labor and delivery. You will learn how to work through contractions
and stay in control, and you will practice these strategies so you’re ready for
delivery. Most women take their birth support person with them to classes so
they can practice together.
2. Take parenting classes.
Parenting classes can help you understand the different stages your baby
will go through, how to keep your baby safe, how to dress and change your
baby, and how to tell when your baby is having a medical emergency.
3. Make a birth plan.
A birth plan is an outline of what you want for your delivery. This plan helps
your doctor or midwife, nurses, and support people understand your personal
wishes.You should talk about your plan with your support person and your
doctor or midwife. Not only will it help them understand you, but it will also
help you figure out if what you have in mind is feasible and safe for you and
your baby.
4. Visit the hospital.
Knowing what to expect and what to do can help you feel more comfortable
on the day of the birth. Set up an appointment for a tour of the hospital. A
nurse or other hospital staff will take you through where you will have your

5
 baby and what you can expect while you’re there. This will also help you
figure out what options are available so that you can plan your birth.
5. Pack your bag.
You will need supplies for both you and your baby at the hospital. Hospitals
may have different rules about what they give out to moms and what you
will need to bring from home.

1. Your birth plan

B. Adjective
1. Definition of Adjectives
Adjectives are adjectives that function to explain or limit pronouns and
nouns that are still general in nature and can be in the form of people, places,
animals, objects or abstract concepts.
2. Adjective function
Broadly speaking, adjectives have several functions as follows,
a. Serves as a subject explanatory or subjective complement. For
example: her idea is (brilliant). The word brilliant is an adjective and
functions as a description of the subject or in the example sentence,
‘her’.
b. Adjectives act as explanatory objects or objective complements. For
example let’s make it (possible). The word possible or in brackets is
an adjective that has a function to clarify the object or in the example

c. Adjectives act as explanatory noun phrases or modifiers of noun
phrases. For example (full scare) political war. The word full scare is
a noun phrase which is explained by the adjective scare.
d. The adjective functions as the core of the phrase or sentence that is
the adjective itself or the head of the adjective phrase. For example
completely (later). The word later is an adjective, which is a type of
adjective of time that describes the word or essence of the adjective
itself, which in this example sentence means really later.
e. Adjective functions as a comparison or comparison degrees. For
example, this laptop is (better) than the other one. In this example
sentence, better is an adjective that describes the comparison between
one laptop and another.

consists of six patterns as follows:

arrogant, charitable, careful, greedy, lazy, helpful, bad, ugly,

  Limiting adjectives
Limiting adjectives, are adjectives that limit nouns or pronouns without
providing information about conditions, types and so on. These limiting

dress, (its) name, (his) money, (my) hat. The word in brackets is a
possessive adjective, while the word after it is a noun.
b. Possessive proper adjective, is a form of ownership that uses a
noun as its adjective. For example, the girl (singular noun) becomes
the girl’s; my husband (singular noun) becomes my husband’s;

proper adjective in a singular noun, add an apostrophe or one-quote
mark and the ending –s. Meanwhile, in plural nouns, you can only
add an apostrophe.

g. Numeral adjective, as the name implies, this adjective is a number
that functions as an adjective. It is divided into three types, namely
cardinal numbers, ordinal numbers, and multiplication. For
