I m considering hypnobirthing. How does the Bradley Method compare?
Hypnobirthing has a very similar philosophy to the Bradley Method. Both focus on natural birth and work on the principle that a relaxed body and mind prevent undue pain during labor. However, from my understanding of hypnobirthing classes, they do not cover many other issues associated with labor and birth, such as exercises, nutrition, the physiology of pregnancy, medical procedures, birth planning, labor positions and newborn care, all of which are covered in Bradley classes.
