  I'm a self taught hypnobirther - meaning I read the books and listened to the CD's as it instructs. I didn't do any classes. I'm doing the same method again for baby #2. I really like my nightly pamper/hypno sessions and how hypnobabies teaches me to be positive and relaxed - just what this type A grl needs. I'd recommend it for any natural birth; my midwife is a fan and supporter.

  Where did you get your CD's? The one that came with the book that I got only had two tracks on it.  I'd LOVE to take the full classes, but we just can't afford that right now.

  i wonder if the PP meant Hypnobabies, not HypnoBirthing. She used both names in her post and they are actually two different programs. Hypnobabies has a robust home-study course that you can order online. HypnoBirthing does not offer a home study course...just the book that you bought and the CD that comes with it. The CD in the book, by the way, is not the CD that you should be listening to daily as you prepare for a HypnoBirthing. Visit www.HypnoBirthing.com and find the online store and order Rainbow Relaxation.

   

  I teach HypnoBirthing and can tell you that there is no home-study intentionally. The program founder wants moms to learn IN a class. there is so much more to the program than what's in the book. In fact, I'd say that only 25% of the program is in the book. There are many techniques that are not only not described but not even mentioned in the book. Even though I teach HypnoBirthing, I recommend that moms who cannot take an in-person class do Hypnobabies instead.

   

  You might want to check with your local practitioners to see if they offer anything besides the full on class. For example, I offer the following:

  - the full 5-wk class

  - an abbreviated 3-wk class for moms late in their pregnancy or for women who have had a previous vaginal birth

  - 2hr private workshop that covers as many techniques as possible, but definitely including all three breathing techniques (and most important WHY we breathe that way)

  - 60-min group workshops on specific technique groups (breathing/relaxation, deepenings/visualizations, & emotion release techniques) 

   

  if you plan to learn HypnoBirthing on your own, I highly recommend at least one session with a practitioner to make sure you have got it all right.
