... I'm thinking about it- seriously. I have already proclaimed my preference for the natural birth. I won't be able to do it at home, like my mom did with my youngest brother, but I'm hoping that the ability to pull it off runs in the family...
I'm very hypnotizable, anyway- once on a cruise, once at my HS senior party. I'm either malleable, or just lazy.
Anyone else interested in this?
Re: Hypnobirthing... Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Oooh! Hypnobabies... I'm lookin' at it.
Also! (not to sound stalkerish), but I notice you're in Glendale! I'll be pushin' out the babe in Burbank. I'll wave to ya in the midst of my hypnotic state... lol!
I totally am!! LOL... We'll keep "in touch" up on here- I'd love to hear how it goes for you. I'm gonna bust in half if you have Dr. Sophia, too...
The website it great!! I'm totally getting the course. Thanks for the tip! And PS- congrats on the little boy! How early could you tell what the little one was??
As a nursing student, the first vaginal delivery I attended was a woman who came in in labor, first baby, and doing hyponobreathing. By the time she changed out of her clothes and they examined her (5 mins) she was fully dilated and contracting every 2 minutes. It was amazing...she would put herself in a trance-like state where she tuned everything else out and just focused on whatever they had taught her. She also had a small radio playing soft music. She delivered the baby in about a half hour which was amazing so I can firmly attest that I have seen it work!
Good luck to all of you ladies thinking about going this direction.
Cool!! Thanks for the affirmation! I just started doing the research, and I'm thinking more and more that this is the right thing for me. I'm a bit of a spaz unless I'm yogafying or meditating... appreciate your experience!
WAHAHAHAH ?I DO have Dr. Sofya! ?I seriously think everyone has her! ?I never thought I would go to a doctor who goes by her first name, like a TV love therapist.
We went to a 4D u/s place in Glendale at 14w4d and were told boy, but now I am thinking it may have been the umbilical cord. ?I have my Big u/s next Tuesday, so I will (hopefully) definitely know then!
Hilarious!?
I will keep you updated! ?There are a couple Hypnobabies birthing stories on the "Birth Story" board (I think on page 2). ?I also just joined a Hypnobabies Yahoo group. ?It is for anyone considering hypnosis for birth.

They must do the course and THEN sell it. ?The workbook it really important and quite long. ?I didn't see a huge price difference so I just bought it on Hypnobabies, since I would be sure to get everything. ?They also have 20% sales every so often. ?You can join their mailing list for updates.?
Yeah, already on the mailing list, I just have a few friends who bought their kits for less than 50% of what HB was originally selling it (and of course, everyone seems to get rid of their kits after the baby is born -- thanks guys!). I just thought I'd throw it out there for people who aren't comfortable making the full financial investment in the kit.
