I've lurked a bit, but I've decided I should introduce myself. This seems to be such a wonderful board - filled with friendly & positive people. Thanks for making it a welcoming place!
We are expecting twin boys this spring...and I'm hoping for a vaginal birth using Hypnobabies. I've heard & read so many terrific things about this program, and I received my home study program last week. It felt like Christmas morning when I saw the package on my door step We'll also be hiring a doula (actually a group of 3 who work together), and will be meeting with them soon.
Our daughter is 2 1/2 years old and excited to be a big sister. While my birth experience with her was okay, I want something different this time around. I had an epidural, and it did not go well. Though I know it's not ultimately under my control (these babies are in charge from day 1, right?!), I'm so hopeful that the babies cooperate for a vaginal and mostly intervention-free birth.
Happy Friday, everyone!

Hi there and welcome! I used Hypnobirthing with my first (similar idea to Hypnobabies) and had an amazing experience. I hope to do it all again with this one.
I used to nanny for a woman who had her twins med-free, so it most certainly can be done! Congratulations on this double blessing!
