I had my great Hypnobabies birth on Thursday, January 31st. Everything went really well and I couldn’t be happier. Even though I wasn’t in hypnosis (while driving to the hospital), the suggestions of pressure and tightening were so powerful that I was able to drive myself to the hospital when my waves were 5 minutes apart lasting for a minute. I’ll have a detailed birth story for you all after I meet with my doula so I can cheat with her notes. I hope that everyone gets to have the birthing experience that I did.
On a side note, I became quite the celebrity at the hospital. My nurse had been a L&D nurse for 30 years. I was her second birth of a mom using hypnosis. She kept raving about how great my birth was. The director of pre-natal education came to visit me and asked lots of questions about Hypnobabies. They are starting a natural childbirth class at the hospital and have asked if I’d be willing to share my experience. How cool is that?
