Hypnobirthing

I just finalized our Hypnobirthing Classes with a great provider in the Grapevine area. Saved $50, too! SO excited, I can't even contain myself! I really can't wait to start these classes... Unfortunately they are once a week for 5 weeks starting March 18, so I'm going to have to wait a wee little bit.

Here's what we get with our course...
HypnoBirthing®  Classes Include:

•   Your own copy of the 302-page HypnoBirthing®  Text, HypnoBirthing® -- The Mongan Method
•   5 information-packed class meetings, helping you to understand why labor doesn't have to hurt
•   5 professionally written scripts for your home practice
•   2 CDs for your relaxation, stress reduction, and bonding (Including the program cornerstone disk, Rainbow Relaxation)
•   Handouts for planning your Birth Preferences
•   A set of Birth Prompts for your birth Companion
•   Demonstration and practice in optimal birth positions
•   Several deep relaxation techniques for use during birthing
•   Well-paced instruction designed to build your confidence and help you to have a safer, easier, and more comfortable birthing
•   Special calm breathing methods for use throughout labor and during birthing
•   The advantage and confidence of the Mongan Method reputation for top-quality birthing preparation.    

It will be so worth it. I think I've been looking forward to these classes the MOST out of everything in this pregnancy so far. Maternity jeans and dreaming of the nursery are great, but THIS is where it's at for me. :) gah!
