As a first time mom, I had no idea what to expect of pregnancy and delivery. Some friends took it too casually, and some exaggerated their own birth stories. As it always was with me, when in doubt I looked for knowledge. The classes with Nadine gave me a clear perspective on what to expect, and ways to make sure I was able to put my stress, fear and negativity away and instead relax and focus on my birth. To tell you the truth I have always been scared of medical setting, and interventions, and the only way I survived my emergency C-Section was because of my Hypnobirthing classes. I knew all the decisions the doctor was making was the best for me and my baby as I was informed what to expect during the birth process and its possible complications during my meet up with Nadine. I utilized the relaxation techniques I learnt throughout the operation. It is amazing how little pain you feel when you are relaxed. Even my ObGyn was surprised at how relaxed I was at the operation theater and during epidural! Even though I did not have a natural birth, I can say I had a successful hypnobirth as I was informed, relaxed and happy throughout the process. Thanks Nadine for the valuable lessons!
