It also guides women through dealing with any unexpected events during labour.<\/p>\n<p>Bristol mother Sally Webber had her four-year-old daughter Keeley, by emergency caesarean section and is now pregnant with her second baby. Sally is now 22 weeks pregnant and has been testing out the Self hypnosis CD programme for Vaginal birth after a caesarean for three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Sally says: \u201cI don&#8217;t mind admitting that I am worried about trying to give birth naturally this time around. There is just two of us in my antenatal class who are having a VBAC and I don&#8217;t really think we have had much support or even resources to help us. I&#8217;m worried about scar rupture, pain and even having another section again. It keeps me awake at night worrying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI found that CD one was really relaxing. The first couple of times I dozed off whilst it was on. By listening to it lots, I found some of my tensions surrounding giving birth were starting to lift. I know it&#8217;s going to take a good while before I am totally reconciled with giving birth naturally but I am confident I will get there. Listening to it late at night helps me to get to sleep instead of lying awake worrying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCD two takes a more practical approach to relaxing and dealing with preparing for birth and labour. I have listened to it with my husband too. I really want him to be my voice during labour, so I can concentrate on birthing. To do this, he needs to understand what I am doing and be able to back me up on my birth plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don&#8217;t think there is a quick fix solution to being able to come to terms with a very negative first birth. I didn&#8217;t realise quite how badly it had affected me until I was pregnant for the second time. By giving myself time alone to listen to the CDs, I am gradually getting closer to birthing naturally. I like feeling more in tune with my body and baby which the CDs help me achieve. Whether or not I will labour drug free remains to be seen, but what I do know is that as long as I go into labour naturally, I won&#8217;t feel panicked or horrified by the event.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Natal Hypnotherapy CD series are vital as a tool to aiding good pregnancy and labour relaxation. They come with a guide on effective birth preparation, which includes comprehensive advice on how to get the best out of the CD and the birth experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a311.99<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.natalhypnotherapy.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\">www.natalhypnotherapy.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Self hypnosis CD programme for Vaginal birth after a caesarean From Natal Hypnotherapy Image to follow Preparing for a natural<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6369","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bristol-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
