First time Mom "Never Actually Pushed"

About 4:30 am on Thursday, 9/20, I woke up to persistent cramping.  I was pretty sure they weren't waves (what contractions are called in Hypnobabies), just constant cramping strong enough to keep me awake.  I wasn't sure what it meant other than my body preparing for birth sometime soon, so I proceeded with my day as usual.  When I told my boss what happened I joked that I would let him know if anything "exciting" happened.  Though I didn't believe anything would, by 4 pm I noticed more cramping, but this time with waves.  It was getting harder to focus on talking serious business, but I still assumed it was because I was so tired from the short night of sleep the night before.  I left work a little early in hopes of napping when I got home.  On the bus ride home, I decided to try out the app for timing waves.  To my surprise, they were fairly frequent (every 6 - 7 minutes for about a minute each).  They didn't seem as strong as I imagined they might be, so I still didn't think much of them.

Hypnobabies: It's not just for birth!

Hypno-mom Marjorie shares her experience using her Hypnobabies tools for more than just the birth of her little girl (which you can read about here). 

I had decided I wanted to have a natural childbirth birth due to wanting to avoid an epidural. My initial reason for desiring a low intervention birth was because my lower back (right above where it joins my pelvis) was surgically fused when I was 21 – this meant if I had wanted an epidural, it would have been put in much higher. I was also slightly concerned about back pain during pregnancy, but figured I would just deal with it. 
Enter Hypnobabies.

Enjoy this great story from a couple who took Lindsay's class back in 2011!  We love how it shows that each birth is so different and each Hypno-couple will use the Hypnobabies tools that feel right to them during their birthing time.

Our Birth Story
It all started on November 6th 2012 at about 4:30 pm. We were 41 weeks along & going to have a biophysical profile done. While we were at the ultrasound the technician said my fluid was low & that I needed to go have a non-stress test done to monitor myself & the baby. We went up to the hospital (which I thought was just because the clinic was closed) & the nurse hooked me up the monitor & said the midwife would be in shortly to see me. When the midwife came in she said everything looked good on the monitor but it looked like we were staying & going to have a baby the next day. I was VERY caught off guard because this was NOT how it was supposed to go, even though I was 41 weeks along I was just shocked! We had plans to stay at home as long as possible & to have our doula come to our house & go with us to the hospital.
