Could I have done anything differently to make it to the hospital on time? These questions have always been on my mind in particular &#8211; I think because after she was born some well-meaning friends made me question my experience \u2018how could you not have known you were in labour?\u2019, \u2018how did you not make it to the hospital?\u2019, \u2018wasn\u2019t it painful \/ scary to deliver her without anyone medical at home?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>While I made peace with my first birthing experience (no I couldn\u2019t describe it as painful, I was calm and relaxed pretty much the whole way through and l wasn\u2019t in enough \u2018pain\u2019 to make me think we needed to go to the hospital until it was too late &#8211; it really did all happen so quickly), I always wondered how a subsequent birth might pan out.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to 2018 and we\u2019ve moved countries (to Abu Dhabi, UAE) and we are expecting our second baby. Things are different here medically and although I really wanted a midwife led delivery, which was familiar from Australia (I never had any OB throughout my first pregnancy), I opted for a highly recommended obstetrician who was very pro natural, super chilled, and who could deliver at the hospital that was literally at the end of our street. It also helped she had a dry, wicked sense of humour and was totally open to all our birth preferences (me catching the baby if I could, delayed cord clamping etc.)<\/p>\n<p>My second pregnancy was very similar to the first &#8211; low risk &#8211; and I found a fantastic doula (who was previously a midwife). I felt great throughout the pregnancy except for some familiar lower back pain.<\/p>\n<p>I did everything the same as first time to give myself the best possible chance of a natural and smooth labour &#8211; this included eating dates everyday, taking raspberry leaf capsules, perineal massage (thanks hubby!), walking, yoga,\u00a0Accupuncture from 37 weeks to ensure baby was well positioned and engaged. Even though I knew there was a high chance of having a quick labour second time, I didn\u2019t want to just expect it, and made sure to plan for a longer labour too. We put our birth preferences together again and at each OB appointment I promised to let her know the second I was feeling anything (obviously she\u2019s seen that many births she knew that chances are I would have an even quicker labour this time).<\/p>\n<p>I never made it to my \u2018guess date\u2019 first time so it was new territory to get to 40 weeks, and then 41 weeks this time&#8230; I was fine in myself but starting to feel some external pressure from others about when baby\u00a0would arrive! I made my 42 week OB appointment as late as I could in the week so I could avoid any induction discussion &#8211; which my dr was fine with as everything was still good with me and baby.<\/p>\n<p>We started trying all the usual induction methods and tried the miles circuit (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.milescircuit.com\/the-circuit.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.milescircuit.com\/the-circuit.html<\/a>) that my doula sent me. I think this really helped (especially the walking upstairs sideways) and I was listening to my <a href=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/shop\/surge-of-the-sea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">affirmations, surge of the sea<\/a>, rainbow mist and<a href=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/shop\/baby-come-out\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> baby come out<\/a> now hypnobirthing tracks daily.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday 13th March I went to bed as normal but just couldn\u2019t sleep &#8211; I wasn\u2019t feeling tired or in pain, just restless &#8211; and this for me was a sign that things could happen soon. Around midnight I started to feel some minor (like a split second) tingles in my tummy &#8211; like I needed to pee. I really tried to sleep as I thought this might soon be the start of some early surges. By 2am I still wasn\u2019t asleep and I kept getting these split second twinges so I thought I\u2019d wake up hubby and mum (who was here to look after our daughter) and we could make our way to the hospital, set the room up and relax a bit.<\/p>\n<p>I woke hubby up just before 2am and he was straight into action, packing the last few bits in the car and I woke my mum up too. They were rushing around (and dropping things on their way!) whereas I was really calm and kept saying &#8211; \u2018relax, nothing\u2019s happening right now, I\u2019m fine, I just have a feeling things could start soon!\u2019 Obviously they didn\u2019t want to risk having to deliver the baby at home (which is illegal here!) so were understandably relieved to get me into the car and on the way!<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>I was the one to call my doula, my OB and the hospital &#8211; at this point I was walking around, getting last minute things together and still feeling fine, with the occasional twinge which I timed at about every 10 minutes at this point (about 2:15am).<\/p>\n<p>We got to the hospital around 2:25am and as it was the middle of the night we had to go through ER which was annoying as the nurses didn\u2019t seem to be in any hurry to get me to the delivery ward &#8211; eventually hubby said something to them which got them moving and we were soon shown into the lovely private delivery room around 2:40am.<\/p>\n<p>Desperate to get the room ready Jon set about putting on the music playlist we had prepared, getting the LED candles on and ensuring I had my exercise ball, yoga mat, clary sage on a cloth etc.<\/p>\n<p>The midwife on duty came in to introduce herself and then left us to it (she had seen hypnobirthing couples before and was respectful of our space). She also didn\u2019t know my birth history so probably thought we had plenty of time.Then things started to go so quickly again I couldn\u2019t believe it was happening for a second\u00a0time. It was like my body knew I was in a safe space and had everything I needed to now bring my baby into the world.<a href=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_0469.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-29068 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_0469.jpg\" alt=\"Claire &amp; Jon holding their newborn Hypnobub\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_0469.jpg 320w, https:\/\/hypnobirthingaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_0469-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jon used the same countdown from 40-0 that helped me so much the first time, and after what seemed like just a few moments I dashed to the ensuite bathroom, wanted my dress off and just wanted to be on the toilet to relieve the pressure on my legs &#8211; I was hot and shaky. My doula had arrived by then, and I could feel I was in transition &#8211; could it really be happening again so quickly??<\/p>\n<p>I could feel my baby working it\u2019s way downwards and I thought I could feel a head &#8211; my doula checked and then raced into the corridor to get the midwife and see if my OB had arrived yet &#8211; by the time she was back the head was out and I knew the body was coming with the next surge.<\/p>\n<p>I could now feel and see the baby\u2019s head (I was standing at this point) and eased the body out &#8211; my husband supported me while I caught our baby. I was so happy to see it was another girl! \u00a0The midwife got there just in time to unravel the cord from around her neck. My dr then arrived as it was all over and said \u2018congratulations &#8211; you got the birth you wanted &#8211; I wasn\u2019t even here!\u2019 She had been delayed as they didn\u2019t let her know what room I was in until it was too late &#8211; but I was really happy with how things had worked out that it was really just me and hubby with our doula for the arrival of our baby again!<\/p>\n<p>Our baby girl arrived around\u00a0<span style=\"color: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">3:20am\u00a0<\/span>(we can\u2019t be sure of the exact time) &#8211; 80 minutes after I\u2019d woken hubby up &#8211; I was In shock at how quick it happened once again.They then helped me and baby back to the room and onto the bed. As my OB started to offer an injection to get the placenta out, I could feel it making its own way out. She then did a check and saw no tearing at all &#8211; just a minor \u2018skid mark\u2019 as she put it \u00a0&#8211; not surprising for the speed.<\/p>\n<p>We were skin to skin the whole time and baby latched on to feed straight away &#8211; it was beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>We now have our two amazing daughters and I feel that bringing them both into the world with the preparation and help of Hypnobirthing has been the best start we could give them, and ourselves as parents.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m lucky enough to have had two low risk pregnancies, and two very easy, quick and pain free labours. I\u2019ve never had any interventions, I never even knew what cm I was dilated either time, and I never once felt the need for any pain relief. Yes they were both quick and intense labours, and not without their discomfort, but my mind was so prepared for what was happening that I never once let fear (mine or anyone else\u2019s) get in the way of letting my babies and my body do what they knew how to do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>I can\u2019t recommend hypnobirthing highly enough and it saddens me when people dismiss it as \u2018hippie\u2019 or not possible for them &#8211; it helps anyone preparing for any kind of birth.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>It\u2019s also an amazing way for hubby, or birth partner, to be involved throughout the pregnancy and birth.
