Hypnobirthing - Where to start?

Question

This is my 4th and last baby and I’d like to try a medication-free birth. My first three were all induced for various complications (one at 42 weeks, and the others at 36/37 weeks) so I’ve never gone into labor on my own.
Hypnobirthing sounds like a good program/approach but I absolutely don’t have time for classes. Are there resources I can access online? Where do I start if I want to practice some techniques? What helped you most?

Answer

I used hypnobirthing and meditation during labour with my daughter and it 100% helped get me through 😊 I never took classes, but I did buy a book from Amazon. I would say more than anything practicing meditation breathing techniques ahead of time was pretty key, tuning everything else out. I kind of got into a birthing zone where I didn't talk to anyone, so having my partner there to communicate for me was great.
Some other coping mechanisms that really helped were also labouring in water if that's an option and having my partner practice double hip squeezes. Those really got me through the hard contractions at the end. Planning to use all these with my home birth in a few weeks. Good luck mama, you got this 💕
