ChildBirth Made Easy
Author: Sahar Aleenuh

 What?  Childbirth and easy placed in the same sentence? You have got to be crazy.  Well, I may have thought the same thing too, until I experienced it myself. After having two children the traditional way (ouch!)  I was overjoyed to discover HypnoBirthing.  While visiting the Dr's office during my third pregnancy I noticed a brochure on the topic of self-hypnosis for childbirth. I was already interested in hypnosis and the possibility of using it to have easier labour was almost intoxicating. I took the class and had wonderful results for my third birth.  I actually was able to birth without pain.  I felt strong pressure throughout the labour, but was able to use the techniques taught in class to cope very well.  How exciting and powerful to give birth in such a relaxed and controlled way.
How was this possible?  Marie Mongan, the founder of the HypnoBirthing Institute based her work on the earlier work of Dr. Grantly Dick-Read.  Dr. Read was referred to as the father of natural childbirth for his research and work on the topic. During his career he had the opportunity to travel the world and observe women from different cultures giving birth. He found that women around the world did not have the same degree of difficulty in labour and delivery as western women.  In fact many that Read observed had very easy births and were able to give birth with no pain relief at all.  What was the deal? Dr. Read's theory was that fear created tension in the body and this tension led to pain.  In absence of fear there would be no tension and therefore no pain.  Marie Mongan read his books and gave birth to her own four children using these methods.  She later studied Hypnosis and started teaching women the techniques to fully relax and release fear before and during labour, making way for comfortable birthing.  To date many women across the world have used her methods to have completely joyous deliveries.  Birth the way nature intended, the HypnoBirthing way.
