Wondering Wednesday: What is the Hypnobabies Yahoo Group?

This is part of my Wondering About Series. Feel free to e-mail any questions you are wondering about to sheridan AT enjoybirth DOT com.

What is the Hypnobabies Yahoo Group and how can I join?

The Hypnobabies Yahoo Group is for expecting moms who are curious about or using hypnosis for birth.  We have moms on there using all kinds of hypnosis for birth programs:

• Hypnobabies Live Course
• Hypnobabies Home Study
• HypnoBirthing Live Course
• Reading HypnoBirthing Book
• HypBirth
• Private classes with Hypnotherapist

It is a very active group with 30-40 messages posted a day.  The moms are all great and very supportive of each other.  Just last week I had a mom post a question FROM THE HOSPITAL.  Her baby’s head was tilted a little and her birthing time had stalled.  Her OB was threatening her with a cesarean if things didn’t pick up.  She wanted tips on how to get things moving.  Other moms jumped in with some easy ideas.  “Try hands and knees”  etc.  She e-mailed back hours later saying that baby did move and she had her vaginal birth.

The Hypnobabies Yahoo Group is a great group for you to join if:

• you are an expecting mom interested in learning more about hypnosis for birth.
• you are an expecting mom trying to decide if getting the Hypnobabies Home Study is worth the money.
• you are an expecting mom trying to decide which childbirth for hypnosis is the best for you.
• you are an expecting mom using Hypnobabies.

I moderate the group along with other Hypnobabies Instructors.  So it is a great group for moms using the Hypnobabies Home Study, because any questions they may have as they study can get answered.
