When to start listening to hypnobirthing cd
HYPNOBIRTHING TIPS & ADVICE - MY HYPNOBIRTH EXPERIENCE #HYPNOBIRTH #WITHME
hi everyone and welcome back to my
channel so today's video is going to be
all about hip releasing so my experience
with Daisy and the tools I use and what
my plans are for this pregnancy labor
and birth day if you want to find out a
little bit more than mckee watching in
this video as I mentioned I want to talk
about my experience with Daisy because I
always think it's really positive to
hear other people's hypnobirthing
experiences and it makes it become less
of a myth and more of a reality and then
I'm also gonna talk about the tools that
I use as well so I'll get onto those at
the end but let's talk about my
experience so as a bit of background as
you'll need to my channel this is my
third pregnancy now and I also have Phil
here is my little boy who is five and a
half years old now and he was 13 days
late and he was an induced labor with
the prostaglandin gel which did work for
me my waters were broken and a few hours
into labor and I progressed very quickly
and I had really really really fast
birth basically for you first time at
least anyway so there's a contain round
while my labor with all was really
positive I wanted to feel more in
control with my labor with Daisy who is
my 20 month old little girl and the main
reasons for feeling this way was that
while he arrived quickly I wasn't able
to have any pain relief because gasps
and that made me feel very sick and I
was too far gone in my labor to have
anything like you know an epidural and
things like that and I didn't really
want to go down the path Adeem route
because that just personally wasn't
something that I wanted to do so his
labor was quite a overwhelming and
frightening experience and I think
you've hit time around a lot at the time
it is no because you don't know what to
expect so they say that knowledge is
power but I found myself when I got to
around the same stage that I am now in
this pregnancy which is 30 weeks I find
myself getting a little bit scared I'll
be honest because I knew what it felt
like I could remember and you were to
expect
but at the same time I haven't had a
spontaneous labor before because I was
in Jesus time to hold I go into labor
naturally this time and there were loads
of other factors as well that sort of
made me really nervous and I did have
like a general fear of birth and I was
just anxious about it so I had read a
lot about him everything I heard a lot
about Hitler being I am quite I would
seem like a logical person I am quite a
romantic individual and quite sensitive
as well and I can't go off with the
fairies but for me
hypno birthing before I sort of looked
into it felt like a load of old
gobbledygook I put my hands in the air
I'd be honest like I wasn't sold on the
idea at all because in my head if all
you needed was like your brain and your
breathing and some more understanding
and practice why didn't everyone deed
hit everything why was this not like a
general thing why did we have drugs but
I decided to give it a go anyway because
I thought that there was no harm in
trying so with my pregnancy with Daisy I
didn't have the funds to go for a hit
and a birthing course and that was the
fatal for me because that really put me
off because I thought well if this is
such a useful skill why do I have to pay
to you know attend these classes I can't
afford that I just I couldn't afford it
we were saving up at the time for my
return to you because I only had such
Tim Burton to pay and every penny
counted where is this time even though I
probably could afford to do it I'm going
to go back to basics and do it the way
that I did with Daisy now I used two
things really
I used a book which I will go on to you
in a little while and I also used tracks
on my iPhone which I would listen to
every night so I started around 30 week
mark with Daisy and I started reading
this book and I started listening to
tracks and I would do it most nights
obviously there'll be a few occasions
where I hadn't done it because I was too
tired or maybe we've gone out for a meal
but for the most part I would do it and
you know what I actually really started
to enjoy it though I went through all of
this process and then when it came to
giving birth I actually went into
spontaneous labor with Daisy when I was
40 plus - so
him plus two days overdue and I went
into labor after having a sweep stretch
and sweet membrane sweet which does work
for me
I can recommend them but it's totally up
to you and I went into labor in the
middle of the night and it was a
surprise for me because obviously last
time I was in G stand it is very
different and I felt these slow surges
of pain in my stomach and I said what do
I need to go to the toilet is this this
like you know you're right eaten
something dodgy and I told mark my other
half look I'm gonna give run a bath and
soak for a bit and honestly I didn't
actually think that it was labor
initially and I got in the bath and the
surges of pain keep coming they just
kept coming and coming and coming and
they were very very very close together
and quite intense and I found myself
thinking hang on a minute Charlie you're
overdue you're heavily pregnant this
might actually be Labor so start
tracking me so I used an app on my phone
and I lay there and I thought right I'm
on my own I'm in my house I'm in my bath
it's calm you've lit candle there's no
one else awake right now but you and
this baby so just focus on you know what
you've learned and focus on your
breathing and things like that and I did
and I ended up bringing the midwifery
team and they told me to come in right
away because I've half a smiley but was
with bills and honestly daisies bear if
you want to know the full story I will
leave like her link to me it's mainly
how her birth went down below but her
birth was magical it was absolutely
brilliant the Midwife was so confident
that I knew what I was doing and I was
happy and comfortable that she honestly
just left us to it and it was anywhere
mark went to go infect you because I
said I was ready to push that she came
back in the room at no point did I ever
feel like I couldn't do it I felt so in
control and I knew what was happening
with my body and I just felt amazing and
I as such I'm doing this again because
why wouldn't I want to do that it was
incredible now the first thing I did
when I decided that I wanted to do it in
a bit
was getting myself a book and I did a
lot of research on the line and I looked
at like reviews on places like Amazon
and things like that and one of the most
popular ones was the hypno birthing book
I Katherine graves and she's actually
assess what the home of hidden birthing
as well and there's like certify care
organization that a lot of midwives or
hypno birthing and teachers will
register under and learn here techniques
and I just felt really comfortable
knowing that it was a widespread way of
teaching hit the birthing I'm not saying
that you have to get this book I'm not
saying like this is the Bible get this
one don't do anything else but this is
what I really enjoyed you'll also notice
as well the in terms of thickness it's
not like it's a hard read it's not going
to take you too long and it's also
really really nicely laid out inside
which is a useful thing I think for me
because it didn't feel too intimidating
now what I really like about this book
is that there are twelve chapters in
total and they really really take you
through everything that you want to know
and I feel like I began a skeptic and
the end I was a believer that made sense
which one so corny but it's true
like the first few chapters personally
for me we're the most insightful and
inspiring because the first one is
hidden a bit of thing explained so it
looks at hypnotherapy the power of
language hypnobirthing in your mind the
effectiveness negative thoughts and then
also how like other mammals give birth
and when you start to see the way that
animals give birth in nici's sort of it
starts to click a little bit but then
the next chapter is the uterus and the
fear and confident responses so it
actually talks you to you about how the
uterus were now I don't know if you know
this because I didn't want to started
reading this but the uterus actually has
two it sets of muscles so it has the
vertical muscles which is the main set
of muscles and then there are muscles at
the very like entrance or opening where
you would give birth and the baby passes
through the birth canal and they are
completely separate but they work in
unison but they have different jobs and
it teaches you about how freezing up and
getting scared
tens can affect the way your body would
naturally respond to giving birth then
chapter three is the mind body effect
which is looking at the power of the
mind and learning about like breathing
and visualizations and all of this and
then it goes on into different areas
such as relaxation preparing your baby
in your body for birth nutrition now
reading in you know finding out more
about Hitler birthing is a great great
start but if you're obviously not going
to a class you're gonna need to learn a
few techniques as well and this book
does touch on techniques don't get me
wrong it teaches you things that you can
do with your partner if you want to
things you can do on your own breathing
techniques visualizations things like
that but you may also benefit from some
tracks as well to listen to because you
can use those while you're in labor you
can put them on your phone download them
put headphones in and then just listen
to those words and those visualizations
while you're giving birth and it allows
you to say announcer you ignore any
hospital noise like beeps you know the
noise of strangers voices and things
like that and you can just go into your
own little world now last time I
actually use two tracks from the London
School I've hit a bit of thing and I
believe those linked down below so you
can download them as far as I am
remember they were eight pound
ninety-nine each which is an investment
but at least for me it was a hell of a
lot less than doing a call but this time
around I'm still using those tracks
because I've still got them I'm also
using Katherine Grace's own tracks that
I found on iTunes is it now I have an
iPhone you know like a lot of us do but
maybe you don't so maybe this is only
useful for iPhone users but I've never
used Apple music before I tend to
Spotify and I went on Apple music the
other day and I searched for them so
this is the track it's a hypno birthing
relaxation color and calmness with fish
visualization while I was looking at
this it was just a quick search while I
was in bed I realized that I can get
three months free of Apple music because
I've never used it before and I'm doing
that at the moment so I've essentially
got this for free so if you haven't used
it yourself or maybe you have Apple
music already
it it might be worthwhile giving this a
go and giving it a listen she goes into
a state or hypnotized Asian sort of
teaches you to take your mind elsewhere
and yes you will listen to it first and
you'll probably want to have a little
bit of a giggle and it will take you a
little while to relax but the more times
you start to listen to tracks like this
the more relaxed you are going to become
and the more natural it is going to be
for you and you'll just be able to feel
like a little bit more at one with your
breathing you learn about like how much
your state of mind and your breathing
affects your body and you learn to relax
which is really important because if you
imagine like you want to push your baby
out your body actually voluntarily
starts to push and use those uterus
muscles
anyway if you start to really resist
because you're frightened then you are
just basically giving yourself like a
force to go against like it's not going
to be as natural as it could be because
you're resisting it and you're sort of
digging your heels in and you're making
it harder for yourself so it's
definitely worth downloading those and
trying them out and seeing how they work
for you I'm not saying that hidden of it
is for everybody my mom actually had
about thirty hours of labor with me I
think and ended up in an emergency
c-section because I was faced
presentation so instead of coming out
like this I was coming out like this
which could have hurt me and potentially
killed me and my mom so it's not to say
that the be-all and end-all it's not
going to solve emergencies it's not
going to give you the PFA results every
single time it might still very well
hurt some women do hit the very thing
and say it wasn't painful it was just
powerful but it's really really worth
giving it a go for me personally I found
that yes I felt like there was pain and
I was very aware of the fact that it
wasn't a comfortable experience I never
panicked and I never felt like I
couldn't do it with Bill I remember it
saying I can't do it I can't do it I
can't
and I could I could I was doing it it's
one of those things where I just think
can it go because it's absolutely
amazing and I will be using those tracks
and reading that book everybody started
because I'm 13 weeks now
and I'm really really really excited to
give birth you know hopefully you found
that really helpful as I mentioned
before I believe all of these links down
below and I will also leave a link to
Daisy's birth and also a post I wrote
when I was pregnant with Daisy about my
hip a bit imply understand as well if
you'd be interested in readings more but
yeah I hope that helps
good luck if you are very close to
giving birth and let me know in the
comments down below if you've got any
other questions and I will do my best to
answer them and just believe in yourself
and go for it because you've got nothing
to lose
I'm it yeah thank you so much for
watching and I will see you next time
