My friend is 36 weeks exactly w/her second baby. She just watch BoBB and has had some sort of epiphany that she would like a ncb instead of the epidural she had planned on all along. Her 1st baby came at 39 weeks so she doesn't think she would have the time for hypnobabies to benefit her. She tried to sign up for a lamaze style class and it was (surprise) full.
Can you suggest any online resources to prepare for a ncb? (Like an online birth class?) Or a great ncb book? I thought of Ina May's guide to childbirth but I couldn't remember if that book included techniques and ideas for coping. I've suggested my friend create a list of affirmations and take at least 30 min daily to fully focus on relaxing her entire body. I'd love some more ideas to encourage her to the birth she really wants.
