Hi everyone.
I'm currently 15w2d with my second baby. First DD is 3.5 now and her labour/birth was pretty awful - 36+ hour labour, stalled at about 6cm, Pitocin, epidural, forceps, literally a hair's breadth away from a C-section.
Would dearly love a better experience this time, I know you can't predict these things but would like to give hypnobirthing a try. I'm not usually into the whole hypno- stuff but my boss's wife had both hers with this method and said it was amazing. I just want a calm, tranquil experience this time rather than the panicked, exhausting feeling I felt throughout the last time.
Any success stories you'd care to share? Advice/tips? I'm looking at a local hypnobirthing advisor/lesson but it's not cheap!
