Hypnobirth

Hi, has anybody done or recommend hypnobirth... I was thinking of doing the classes but not sure if I believe in all that. Wanted to try everything for a more relaxed controlled birth????

  • I did. Well partially. I used what I had learnt and adapted it to my labour. It made everything a lot more relaxed. Give it a go. No harm in trying x
  • I read the book and then used the breathing exercises and some visualisations to keep myself relaxed. It definitely helped me. I used it in combination with my TENS machine and between the two was able to stay relatively calm. A friend did the classes and subsequently had a very relaxed home birth. I mught do the classes myself next time.
