This is my second time around doing Hypnobabies and I really love it. I used Hypnobabies with Ashtyn and I honestly don't know if I could have gotten through the labor without having done that. The thing that helped me the most was the focus on relaxing and the ability to do that.
However, I didn't use it enough, both prenatally and during labor, for it to be as effective for me as it is with others. I was really busy at the time trying to get school done before Ashtyn came and didn't put as much of a priority on practicing the techniques Hypnobabies teaches.
Hypnobabies can be really powerful if you put the work in and allow your mind to open about.
Hypnobabies teaches you how to relax your entire body and any part of your body. It teaches you to create natural anesthesia, which is basically just teaching your brain to keep the pain from transmitting. It works because your brain is so powerful.
The healthcare community actually uses this same technique for a lot of different procedures. They have specialists who work with children, especially, who needs to get a shot or go through a procedure. It helps them feel like they have a sense of control over a hard situation. I've also heard of dentists using it for people who are allergic to anesthesia.
I am really excited to see how well it works for me this time around, now that I'm putting more effort into it and also am more open to the idea of it helping.
