Wow it's been a while since ive last posted LOL!
Baby no. 2 is due on the 5th of August and after having our first in hospital (waters got broken for me, pethadine, epi, 2 hours of pushing and ventouse delivery) I have decided that im having my 2nd at home!
Ive rented a birthpool for the occasion and I was hoping to use at least some hypnobirthing techniques.. maybe some aromatherapy
However due date is getting closer and Ive not had the opportunity to read the hypno book or listen to the cd's or decide on any other coping strategy... so what im wondering about is.. what where your coping techniques?!
Is going in 'blind' (ie without fully following a course, having a doula etc.) a set up for failure and are there any easy strategies to remember? IE how to breath etc?
