My experience with the Hypnobabies was an incredibly positive one. Anyone can do it, all you have to do is believe you can and practice EVERY DAY. The following benefits to choosing a hypno-birth were taken from the hypnobabies website:
Why choose a natural, easier birth using Hynobabies? The benefits are many:
● The Hyno-mom will use fewer drugs or no drugs, which means less risk of side effects for mother and baby, due to elimination
of the Fear/Tension/Pain Syndrome, and using post-hypnotic suggestions.
● Most Hyno-mothers have shorter labors since there is less resistance of the birthing muscles when pain and fear are minimized or eliminated.
● The birthing woman generally has much more energy throughout first and second stage, due to a total relaxation throughout the birthing process.
● The birthing enviroment is much more calm and peaceful when the natural childbirth mother is comfortable.
● Breech and posterior babies can be turned using hypnosis.
● Blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature can be lowered and nausea, back and hip pain eliminated with hypnosis during pregnancy and labor.
● There are fewer interventions for failure to progress and therefore fewer fetal and maternal complications during labor.
● The deep relaxation in Childbirth Hypnosis sessions has also helped many a nervous dad to enjoy their partner's pregnancy and childbirth, and the skills that the Hypno-couple learns for relaxation and hypnosis will benefit them for the rest of their lives.
● Hypno-couple are deprogrammed from the usual negativity of childbirth stories and scenarios they've always heard, by way of training in Birth Hypnosis classed or sessions, and audio CD's which have deprogramming messages. This automatically sets them up for a better attitude and confidence in birthing.
For my birthing experience, I chose hypnosis and not only was I relaxed and calm, but I felt no pain; just pressure and tightening. I was able to create my own anesthesia and push it to where I needed it most. My labor was short and I had complete control. If you are looking to give birth naturally, I see no reason why you wouldn't want to use the Hypnobabies techniques. I will definitely do it again!
