Were can i buy a pregnancy DVD that helps your breathing techniques in Labor!?
The Bradley Method is the best relaxation technique for all-natural births. I’ve had three, two at home. There’s definitely pain but confidence in your body to do the work it was made to do is the best fighter of “unbearable” pain. Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way is the best book I could find. It has wonderful pictures that illustrate everything perfectly. I’m not sure if there’s a DVD avail but the book was fine for me. Your breathing should be normal. No ‘techniques’ just deep peaceful breathing as you would when trying to fall asleep. Knowledge of what exactly is going on in there that’s causing the pain and using visual techniques to let it happen without tensing up against it worked for me and it’s all explained beautifully in the book. Of course there are things you can do now to prepare such as proper diet and stretches that help the body get ready and that’s in there too. One thing it doesn’t mention too much is hot water. Laboring in a birth pool or deep tub is AWESOME and
