Hellobee Boards

I couldn't find an instructor who's class schedule worked for us, but both SO and I read the book and did some exercises.

Our birth didnt go as planned...(magnesium and ephedrine for blood pressure) and ultimately a c section. I feel that the book really helped us in the delivery. I was calm and peaceful, and mostly pain free until 9.5 cm without an epidural.

My SO was my biggest advocate...refusing pitocin and pain meds for me. I am pro Bradley method

I really wanted to follow the Bradley method with DS but we couldn't find a class that worked for our schedule. I would like to this time around, but I think we will run into the same problem. Maybe I will get the book!!

Yep. Took the classes and loved them. Had a wonderful unmediated birth! I didn't use all the methods taught but I used a few and DH used lots encouraging words/touch that he learned in class that kept me going.

Me! I had a successful unmedicated induction with the help of the Bradley Method and we're planning on a home birth this time around. I needed (and LOVED) the depth of the information they provided, and was super thankful for the postpartum portion of our class. It gave my husband ways to be included and ideas to help me during the early weeks. I felt SO empowered by the class and supported by my husband. Win!
