We've been doing the breathing from time to time, which seems helpful but it will be interesting to see how it relates when I'm really in labor... But my latest favorite is consciously relaxing every muscle group, starting from the head and going down to the toes. It feels sooo good at night when I'm having a hard time falling asleep! I'm hoping practicing now will help down the line and will keep me from tensing up so much.
Do you have any techniques/tricks that you're practicing before labor?
