My sister just finished the hypnobabies birth classes and she LOVED them. They give you a lot of at home work as well to fully prepare the body and mind for the birth process.
I took Lamaze, but I read all of the hypnobirthing books. I LOVED the hypnobirthing, and think it was probably what kept me from needing drugs, BUT, I still used some of the lamaze.
I've been reading the Hypnobirthing book, listening to the CD too. I haven't taken the class yet. I think it's wonderful and has even helped me get rid of round ligament pains I was getting.
Hmmm, since I'm planning home birth I wonder if I should look into hypnobirthing. I've done lamaze which was okay but I'd like something that helps me focus completely.
