Has anyone or known anyone that has used hypnobirthing?
ByI saw a tv show where a women used hypnobirthing and had little to no pain during her whole labor. I was wondering if anyone used this and how true it is. I had never heard about it before.

I’ve seen quite a bit about it and it seems to be getting more popular. I’m planning on using it for my labor :] It reduces the need for a C section by 50% and the use of forceps or vacuum by 40%.
“As with most forms of hypnosis, hypno-birthing allows you to be completely aware of everything that’s going on around you, but become detached from the distractions. It’s ideal for anyone having a baby, whether first timers or those who’ve giving birth before, and is completely safe. It can’t guarantee that you won’t suffer pain or complications, but statistics suggest that 65-70% of those using hypno-birthing techniques don’t need any form of pain relief. It can also give you more confidence, as you feel more in control of what’s happening to you and it gives you the chance to enjoy the experience, instead of worrying your way through.”
