As a first time mum I was very anxious about giving birth. My head was filled with images from the movies where women lay flat on their backs in stirrups, screaming, sweating, surrounded by men in white coats and in one nightmare scenario dying during child birth. Chats with family members didn’t do much to allay my fears; my Mum recommended that I take as many pain-killing drugs as possible and my mother-in-law suggested an elective caesarean. They had my best interests at heart, but I didn’t feel comfortable handing over the birth of my child to someone else. I wasn’t particularly anti-intervention or pro-natural birth. All I wanted was to ‘not be scared of giving birth’ to my baby. This article relates Mindful Mum’s search for a better way to birth and experience of hypnobirthing in the UK.

Nervous About Giving Birth?
Many mums and dads I talk to enjoy the closeness of giving their baby or toddler a bottle of milk as a comfort before bed time. The warm milk and reassurance of your loving embrace helps baby to fall asleep and results in a calm bed time routine. Whilst its good to have a wind down period before bed it is very important that you brush your baby’s teeth before they go to sleep.
