I don’t know where you could get hypbirth classes. I used the Bradley method. It is natural childbirth, with no pain medication, no routine episiotomy, no electronic monitor, and you are allowed to eat during labor.

I really admire people that opt for the natural birth.
My first pregnancy I was in labor for 19 hours and had an epidural, that made everything so much better because the pain was really unbearable. With my second pregnancy everything when so fast that I didn’t have time for any drugs, my labor was only like 4 hours but it was a horrible, horrible experience, of course it is worth it went you see your child but it is not true that you completely forget about the pain.
I am now 27 weeks pregnant with twin girls and I would never attempt to have them without drugs.

I dont know about hypobirth but I do know that I went natural and its very hard and painful but I felt great afterwards vs. some firends of mine had felt lousy after giving birth because of the epidural side effects. I still had an epistomoy but otherwise was fine. I would efinately do it again in a heartbeat! Good luck!

I have a friend who used the hypno method, she still felt pain, but was able to concentrate and relax easier. Lamaze breathing worked for me. The pain, as bad as it seems at the time, is a fleeting memory when you feel that baby slide out of you!!! I have had a medicated birth and a natural birth, and natural is the way to go!! Much shorter labor, short recovery time and no side effects!
