Hellobee Boards

I didn't use any but definitely will be next time! I did have a worship playlist on the whole time though (it helped tremendously).

I have a book that has a lot of great ones... I'll be back later to post them for you!

i listened to the hypnobirthing affirmations and just substituted God in for Nature.

@grizz: Super long response to ensue....

I still have my playlist on my old laptop... when P wakes up I'll go snag it & list them here (along with some new songs I'd add)

I also have a couple FANTASTIC books for pregnancy/birth that are Christian! Supernatural Childbirth by Jackie Mize (she's had numerous painless childbirths) & The Christian Woman's Guide to Childbirth by Debra Evans

Since I know you're nearing delivery I'll go ahead & post some of the good stuff from them!

First a great prayer for to prepare for delivery that is scripture based & very specific: (it's kinda long but is so good I just had to share) I should also note that while it's all true it's definitely a faith stretching prayer... totally backed by scripture but it's about really getting our faith around (I'll be starting the book again now before ttc so I can get my faith stretched for our next delivery)

Father, as I look forward to delivery of my sweet baby, having enjoyed a blessed pregnancy of full duration, I thank you in advance for Your Word, Your blessings, Your peace, Your presence and Your divine intervention. I pray & confess that my body and my baby will cooperate with perfect, supernatural delivery, that there will be no problems of any kind. I also believe and declare that my labor will be quick, short, easy and painless. I believe and declare that I'll have time to get to the proper place with the proper help.
Baby, in Jesus's name, you move & place yourself in perfect position for birth: head first, not breech, and face down. You rotate properly as God intended you to. I command the umbilical cord to be in proper position as well. Body, you function perfectly during this time. I have perfect peace and am relaxed. All fear must go and stay gone for I have God, Who is perfect love & casts out fear. My body will not be tense but relaxed at peace. I speak specifically to all the parts of my body to come in line with God's Word and will.
Father, I believe that the at the proper time for delivery my water will break & my uterus will do it's job and begin to contract and push my baby down the birth canal and out into our loving arms & lives. I command my cervix to dilate fully to 10cm, to be elastic & stretch. To the uterus, vagina, perinuem, vulva, as well as my cervix, you relax, be elastic and stretch without causing pain or any complications. Accommodate for the birth of my baby. Furthermore, I declare in Jesus' name that I will not tear or need an episiotomy. Father, pain is under the curse or the Law, and Your Word says that Jesus bore our pain, so I rebuke all pain and will not tolerate pain. I will have a short, easy, pain free delivery in Jesus' name; therefore, I wont' need any anesthetic of any kind. Thank You, Lord, in Jesus' name. Amen
