Anyone use the Bradley Method before or are planning to use it?
ByI’ve been reading the book “Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way” and absolutely LOVE IT! Just wondering if anyone else has used this method and how it worked for them. If you are planning to use it, are you taking classes or just practicing?
I’m 28 weeks 4 days with my first and am dead set on this method…just wondering about anyone else’s experience with it. I’ve asked similar questions before but hardly anyone answers…

My wife and I used that with our son, who was born at ~ 8 lbs, 10 oz.
She did her best to go natural all the way, but ended up using Pitocin to induce and the doc convinced us to let her do an episiotomy.
She didn’t use a block, so at least that part was according to plan.

Yes, I used it four times; and that is the book I went by. It works great. I did take some classes at a birth center. I had my children at the birth center. The hospitals around here will not allow natural childbirth. They insist upon an electronic monitor and they will not let you eat. I had a cookie and milk 20 minutes before my son was born.
