[quote=Anonymous]Okay, this is hokey, but it's worked for me. In addition to hynobabies course, I imagined my little baby inside wanting to come out. I imagined meeting her for the first time. I imagined her all squished up in there, wanting her mama and papa, needing us to be calm and carry on. I thought about my baby, and talked with my baby (yes, I probably sounded CRAZY and am a little embarassed about how I might've appeared to the delivery staff :)) things like, "Mama's going to relax and breathe, now, little one." And I'll tell you, I wasn't for one minute thinking about now noble I was being, how "superior" to mum's who chose to medicate. I wasn't thinking about ANYONE but myself and that baby. Oh, and once or twice about my husband (who needed to brush his teeth if he was going to get within ten feet of me, heh. See? Told you I was crazy!). And listened to my doula a lot, who told me every step of the way that I was doing great. I don't care if she lied.[/quote]
