Baby digs hypnobirthing

Last night we had our first class and learned a few things like I can't figure out how to make that ribbon thing work right but am much better at the visualization exercises than DH.  Good thing I'm the one giving birth.  And baby girl really loves the relaxation exercises/breathing.  She was going nutso in there!  So last night I decided to listen to the rainbow relaxation at bedtime and since she started up again, I had DH put his hands on my belly while I did the relaxation thing and he was able to feel her partying in there too!  Then she calmed down so he rolled over and went to sleep and the little girl went bonkers again.  What a tease!  It's such a fun feeling to know that my hands are on my belly and yet not feel that they're there because of the relaxation.  Didn't fall asleep with the cd playing but it was a nice wind down for the day.  Practicing will be fun!  I can breathe in for 4 but doesn't take me 8 counts to breathe out.  feels unnatural to do that but I figure that the main point is to just be relaxed so not sure if I need to aim for the 8 second thing or not worry about it.  The instructor said to go at my pace and that it may just naturally occur with time

    That's one thing I miss about having an inside baby is feeling him kick!

    Sounds like you are doing everything right, good work Momma! I have read almost all of the book but won't start my class for awhile, now I really want to start.

    Yeah, it's a little early but due to scheduling issues for us and the instructor, this timing worked out well.  Besides, lots of time for DH to practice massaging me!
