I wanted to say a BIG thank you! I had the most incredibly positive birth. I did my Hypnobirthing Australia\u2122 course at 26 weeks with the lovely Kathryn Bell from Kathryn Bell Birth Support in Sydney.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I used the tracks daily<\/a> and can’t thank you enough for how much they prepared me and my partner for my birth. I have never been so proud of myself as I was the day I gave birth to my little boy, Freddy.<\/p>\n

I was 39 weeks and 5 days when my labour began. That day I had, had acupuncture to help induce labour. After the acupuncture, I walked about 4 kilometres to the top of the headland at my local beach. As I walked, I listened to my pregnancy affirmations<\/a> – once at the top I sat on a seat overlooking the ocean and took deep breaths in through my nose and out through my nose. I had a feeling that the baby would be coming that night.<\/p>\n

At around 10 PM, I started to feel the first inklings of surges. I told my partner that I thought the baby was on his way – but of course, he didn\u2019t believe me! I had been told that the best thing to do during early labour was to rest – so I went to bed as normal listening to my \u2018Surge of the Sea<\/a>\u2019 track.<\/p>\n

At 1 AM, I woke up and I could no longer sleep through the surges. My husband measured them and they were about 5 minutes apart. I stayed in bed and laboured on my side from 1 AM to 5 AM breathing through each contraction and listening to my hypnobirthing tracks. (see video below of me doing my ‘Surge breathing’)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At 5 AM, I couldn\u2019t lie down any more and could feel the surges increasing in intensity. I decided to get up and start letting gravity do some work! I got in the shower, which felt so much better. As each surge began, I spoke to Freddy out loud – telling him to \u2018move down, push down\u2019 as I visualised him in the optimal position for birth. I lost track of time as I listened to my hypnobirthing tracks and breathed through each surge.\u00a0 I ended up being in there for 3 hours! I had told my husband to sleep so that he would have the energy for later on. Around 8 AM in between surges – I messaged my mum to tell her that I was in labour. She panicked a little bit and said, \u2018What are you doing! Get to the hospital!\u2019. I hadn\u2019t been measuring my surges – but my mum\u2019s concern was enough for me to wake my partner and get him to measure them. They were now about 2-3 minutes apart. It was peak hour – and we had to get to the hospital, which was about an hour away.<\/p>\n

I was feeling quite good labouring at home – but we decided that we should get going even though my biggest fear was being sent home from the hospital! I hopped out of the shower,<\/p>\n

grabbed my hospital bag and got in the car. As soon as I was in the car, I put on an eye mask and kept my hypnobirthing tracks playing through my headphones. Between surges, I sucked on coconut water ice blocks to keep hydrated. Both my partner and I were so calm on that trip. Neither of us spoke. I had no concept of how long the trip took – how much traffic there was – how many red lights we stopped at. I was completely in the zone.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When we got to the hospital they were really busy. I was put in a waiting room and then a nurse came to assess me. She said that as it was my first baby I may not be as far along as I thought and I may need to go for a walk to get things going. I said that was fine – I was just happy I had made it to the hospital! She did a quick check and I was a little further along than she thought. I was 6 centimetres dilated and they quickly got the birth suite ready for me.<\/p>\n

Once in the birth suite – I got straight back in the shower. My husband put my hypnobirthing tracks back on and I put my eye mask on so that I was not distracted by anyone coming or going in the room. At around 10am, my obstetrician came to check me. I had made it to 8cm. He told me to keep doing what I was doing and that he would be back soon.<\/p>\n

It was getting harder to talk between surges. Instead I began stamping my foot to communicate to my partner that a surge had started. As they started, h<\/p>\n

\"\"e would squeeze my hips as I swayed under the shower. When they ended I would slump down on my exercise ball and rest as my husband ran hot water on my back. At each surge – I forced myself to stand to make sure gravity was doing its job even though it was getting harder and harder to get to my feet.<\/p>\n

The doctor checked me about an hour later and I was still 8cm – he asked to break my waters and I agreed – knowing that my mother\u2019s waters had not broken for any of her births. Soon after they broke, I hit transition.<\/p>\n

Having been standing for the majority of my labour – I was beginning to get very, very tired. At this point, I started to lose some focus as I took off my eye mask and just kept saying \u2018I\u2019m so tired, I can\u2019t do it, I\u2019m so tired!\u2019 The midwife and my husband convinced me to lie down. The surges were a lot more intense lying down – but I was relaxed enough to be able to sleep in between them and get some much needed rest. I didn\u2019t like lying down – I remember saying to the midwife \u2018I don\u2019t think the baby will come if I\u2019m lying down.’\u2019 She told me to keep breathing. After an intense surge – I asked for the gas. This ended up being a good distraction as I watched the midwife prepare the gas and felt some relief that I would have something to get me through the next surge. However, after four breaths of the gas I removed the mask. It gave me a terrible head rush, which I really didn\u2019t like.<\/p>\n

Soon after removing the mask, I began involuntary pushing. I was past transition. I remember hearing the nurse calling for the doctor and feeling pure relief \u2018This is the end, he\u2019s nearly here!\u201d. It was the last surge of energy I needed and I got myself on to all fours. Pushing was the best part of my labour. I felt so strong and powerful. I made noises that I never knew I could make – I had no control over them they just emanated from my body. I felt like the entire room was vibrating with my voice. In between each surge, I spoke to my baby saying \u2018Come on, Freddy, nearly there, we can do it!\u2019 \u00a0After three surges my beautiful boy was born. The doctor passed him through my legs and I will never forget how tightly my baby gripped on to my fingers. The first words I spoke to him were \u2018We did it!\u201d. I was so proud.<\/p>\n

The biggest thing that the Hypnobirthing Australia program taught me was no fear. I went into my birth excited – excited to meet my beautiful baby. At no point during my labour was I scared, panicked or fearful. I was purely focused on the present moment – with no focus on the surge that had passed or the surge that was coming. I truly believe that this lack of fear helped contribute to a beautiful and positive experience for me, my husband and my baby.<\/p>\n
