From the Inside Flap
You have started on a journey, one of the most amazing experiences, if not the most amazing experience any woman can have. To produce, carry and give birth to a new life, will evoke a number of feelings and emotions you may not have felt before.
Dr Grantly Dick Read, a doctor in London in the early 1920's noticed that women who had easy births appeared to be in a trance like state and he said this was due to extreme relaxation. Self hypnosis can help you to achieve the level of relaxation necessary to influence your physiological experience. By practising the techniques on these CDs when its time for baby to be born you will be able to achieve a deeply relaxed state.

Fantastic, highly recommend this purchase and the practice of hypno-birthing to all soon-to-be-mums.
Prior to getting these cd's I was so terrified of the thought of labour that I kept vomiting and passing out at the thought of it, very embarrassing parenting classes, to the extent that against my midwife's normal advice she recommended me for an elected c-section. However, the more I read about c-section the more terrified I become and so started looking for other options and came across hypno-birthing.
I only got this cd about 2-3 weeks before I had my baby but listened to them frequently in this time and have used hypnosis previously for a stomach condition. Prior to going into labour I found that they helped me relax and sleep like I've never done before and eased a lot of the back and other pains that were on the increase.
I wasn't really able to listen to the cd's during the birth as I was up and down to the loo so much, however I found that I'd listened to them enough to concentrate and practice the principles on my own.
All the midwives on duty had heard about how terrified I was and that I was practising hypnosis and so kept dropping by to see how it was going. I was so calm and in control throughout that I don't think I could explain the sensation as pain or contractions as such, apparently my actual labour was quite short at about 7 hours and everyone was amazed that I managed to deliver a beautiful 9lb2oz baby girl without the use of drugs or encountering any problems, so much so that the midwives on duty were very keen to learn more and recommend it to future patients.
I think everyone should at least give it a go, even if only to relax in the build up to the birth. My recommendations have so far been taken up by at least three other women who have also had very positive experiences.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy to use this CD really is. From the first time I used it I began to feel the benefits of using the relaxation and breathing techniques, and the visualisation exercises are wonderful.
I have a very busy stressful job as a social worker and it has helped me cope much better as I'm reaching the final weeks.
I feel incredibly positive as I'm nearing the birth of my baby not only through using the techniques on the CD but also from feeling that I am taking back some control of how I want to experience the birth of my first child. I highly recommend it!

I used this CD and the book and CD hynobirthing. I was terrified at the thought of giving birth and spent much of my pregnancy obsessing about it. This was my first baby and all my life I have worried about how it would be and of course everyone loves to tell you how bad giving birth is. So with the use of this CD and the mentioned book I used them every day to try to reduce the anxiety.
Well the result was a 4 hour birth which was quite enjoyable actually and I was not in agony at all! I had gas and air just because it was there really and a laugh with my husband inbetween contractions which were more powerful than painfull. I showed up to the hospital at the pushing stage as we didnt realise I was so far on. The dilation stage was very quick just a few hours and the only time that I did feel a bit of panic was when we were in the house and I didnt realise that I was about to push. If I can do it anyone can. I suppose I will never know if having a great birth was down to these hynosis CDs or just down to luck but for me it was the best money I ever spent as I would have spent thousands of pounds to have a great birth as I am sure any woman would who only gets "horror" stories from well meaning friends. In fact hardly anyone wants to know my great birth story as I dont think they believe me. It was soo empowering and exciting that I would do it again tomorrow. My son seemed to enjoy it too as he was sucking his thumb just shortly after birth and hardly cried at all and still is a chilled out little boy which everyone mentions.
Hope this helps and good luck to anyone in the same situation as me a few months ago.
