Hypno4Birth - Natural Childbirth Using Hypnosis

Candace's Story

I will let you know a little about our experience. I really do believe that the hypno4birth helped with our delivery.

I knew going into the birth, that I would possibly not be a candidate for an epidural or spinal. Brandon and I tried to prepare several things to take to the hospital that would help distract me. We took our wedding pictures, music, and the tools you gave me. The only thing I used during the delivery was the focusing techniques. The photos and music never made it out of the bag.

I did not consciously make a decision to focus, it just came to me, probably because of the practice we had done in preparation. I tried to keep my abdomen free from any muscle tension. Brandon was good to remind me to relax and keep my focus. There was a point in the delivery, that I was not sure if I could continue without an epidural, however, I was unaware at that point that I was already dilated to a 6. Once they told me that, I was confident I could continue.

I was admitted to the hospital around 4:30 pm and she was born at 9:22 pm. I do believe the quick delivery can be attributed to my abdomen being relaxed. I did not talk much during the labor process. I just sat with my eyes closed and got through it.

I would say a large portion of my success was due to the fact that I practiced the focusing at home. The CD really helped with that. Another thing that helped, was that I did not fear the process. Our sessions helped to reinforce that people have been having babies for a long time without epidurals. I also had my husband, who never questioned my ability.

Thank you for all your help. I will recommend natural childbirth and hypno4birth to all of my friends. It can be done, and I felt empowered with the techniques. Once you set your mind to something, it can be achieved.

Thanks again,
Candace, Brandon and Olivia
