lost my positive focus

[shopgirl771]

im hypno birthing at home this time and despite feeling amazingly positive having just finished the hypnobirthing book im now worrying and panicking about anything and everything.

last pregnancy i was quite relaxed in my last tri as i had nothing to judge my impending labour on. the reason for hypno birthing this time is that altho i had a good fast labour/birth last time it was still very terrifying and traumatic for me.

i just feel now like the terror is creeping back in and all the hypno practice is a waste of time. nothing i seem to do helps.

anyone got any words of wisdom or suggestions on how i can re focus and get over this negativity.
i just feel like i need a good hard slap lol

I found this blog to be amazing too https://mamabirth.blogspot.com/

I haven't been through labour yet so lucky in one way that I don't know what's coming! Don't see hypnobirthing as a waste, just as aid to help you relax, just remember to trust in your body, it's toally natural and knows what to do, nothing to be scared of, I think it's totally natural to be a bit terrified though! - that's probably of little help! x

Leopard that story was amazing, I was welling up reading it, you could practically feel exactly what she was going through! x

The fact that you DO know what labour is like means you know you CAN, HAVE and WILL do it.
