I bought a hypnobirthing CD and listened to it a few times a week from around 32 weeks...I always fell aslepp half way through as it was so relaxing but they say it work even if you sleep...
I was TERRIFIED of birth, seriously I would have panic attacks, crying all the time etc...
I dont know if the CD worked but I was so calm when I went in @ 11 days overdue to be induced, he midwives commented on how well I coped. My induction failed and I had a planned C section, and it was wonderful, I was so calm and relaxed over the 2 days from induction to birth...OH was so proud of me and to be honest, I was amazed at how well I handled the whole thing. I still cant believe I did it!!! I have the CD still and willing to copy it for anyone who wants to try, just PM me? xxxxx
