#BuiltToBirth - Jak na to + styl
Hey, Mamas, thanks for watching my video! I'm so glad to have you here and apart of this community! How many weeks pregnant are you and what are you most excited about for birth? 💛
Due Sept 23rd. This is my 5th child and God willing it will also be my 5th birth without medication.
I am most excited for the birthing part.....the moment the child comes out.....its such relief lol
I am 37 weeks with my second girl and I am trying to have a medication free birth but I am so nervous!
I'm 37 1/2 weeks 🙂
@@sandyaleman1619 You can do it, mama! What are you mostly nervous about?
Bridget Teyler The contractions. With my first daughter I tensed up and ended up getting the epidural at only 3cm. So I keep thinking that I’m going to give in again or that I’m going to freak out again! But your videos are definitely helping me keep more calm this time around
I had no meds and used breathing techniques for 4 births. I had 2 water births, for my last 2 babies. I am SO glad I had no meds😅🥰 I kept looking to Jesus to help me, which is how I get thru life... xxx ❤️✝️
God bless you 🙏🙏🙏
Breath technique times
1:14 - Destresser Breath - breathe in 4-6 secs, exhale 6-8 secs, 4 times in a row (get through contractions)
5:43 - Transition breathing - short shallow breaths; 2 in, 2 out (resist the urge to bear down/push)
7:57 - "J" breath - breathe in, low moan out, tighten abs/uterus as you breathe out
Thank you. just the info i was looking for.
Thank you !!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you!!
Thanks
Thanks dear!
Guess what? I am going to try this breathing style right now (2-3cm). Pray for me and for my baby. Thank you for this advice.
Geraldine Macapanas how did it go?
@@brothertn708 Somehow, it helps. But the pain is still there. The breathing is a great help but you should help yourself. I was helpless that time 'cause no one can help me but myself. So just keep it in mind that everything is worth it when the time you hear your baby's first cry.
How is that beautiful baby? I don't have to see a baby to know that they're beautiful because there all are
God bless🙏🏽💛✝️
Same here, I’m in getting induced
I just wanted to let you know because of your breathing techniques, I was able to go through my labor with no medication or epidural!!!! I want to thank you for everything!!!!!! The best experience ever !!!! I had my son today at 2:15 after getting my water broken at 11:50 AM.
Congrats I'm proud of you!! I'm due in January and am planning an unmedicated birth in a birthing center. I hope I can do it!
@@cwolf3011 Congrats to you too!! You can do it, I know you can. Just don't give up :).
Congratulations!!! That’s awesome I hope I’m able to get through labor with this
Wow congrats baby coming next month hopefully this helps me too I’m planning no medication birth 😉
I have a doubt,,are you got normal delivery only follow this breathing techniques,I mean without any workout before due date
I just gave birth two days ago and the fact that I had watched this video previously really SAVED THE DAY!!!!!
I went into spontaneous labor at 40 weeks & 2 days and we had no babysitter! Due to COVID-19 I had to labor in the hospital completely alone! These breathing techniques got me through my entire labor with no epidural, no complications, and not a single vaginal tear!
Thank you!!!!
Amazing, congratulations!!
Truely amazing! Congratulations!
Congratulations Leah, Praise God!!!! And thank God for Bridget!!! 💛💛💛💛💛
Omg what state are you in to have to birth alone. I would be so mentally depressed and stressed not having my partner there. I’m due in 11 days lol
@@samanthasin7291 hope everything goes smoothly for you and your baby! ☺
I'm a doula, and this video is really useful for my pregnant clients, because the techniques are simple and effective - thank you! One more tip: Relaxing/dropping your lower jaw as you breathe out also really helps to open up the cervix (I think I got that one from the great Ina May Gaskin). Wishing all the pregnant women (and partners) watching this a good, strong birth experience. xox
I am so thankful to God for leading me to this video !
I did these breathing techniques through out my labor and i felt that i have had control over my contractions by the grace of God....
Thank you so much !!!
You're welcome! It's so incredible experiencing the miracle of birth through our bodies!
Sahithi Rahul God bless🙏🏽💛✝️
Did you tear?
Feeling this too! I’m due real soon
God bless you! Congratulations Beautiful mama!
Omgsh I just tried the j breath while taking a poo, and it soooo worked👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯 I'm usually always constipated and that was the best shit I've had without needing lactulose or straining yayyyyy😀😀😃 plus I'm 39 weeks pregnant. Thanks
I'm watching this for the second time with my second baby, after using these practices with my first babe! I pushed him out in 17 minutes because of this video!🎉 Thank you.
I hope to God I will remember these breathing when the time comes.
I feel exactly the same thing.
You will ladies. It truly works and you will perfect in within the first 15 minutes of trying g it during labor.
Lmao I was just thinking this
Thank you so much for the tips and especially the breathing techniques. I was able to successfully labor at home doing the breathing, headed to hospital once I felt that the contractions got stronger especially knowing I was already 4cm and 50% effaced. Once I got to hospital I was already 6-7 cm and 100% effaced. I still kept focusing on my breathing and only that. Two hours later with no pain medication/pitocin I had a baby boy naturally. Good luck to everyone especially with this Covid19 pandemic, just focus on the positive and breathing and in no time you will have your baby in chest
Congratulations mommy !
Can I just ask when did you start practicing the breathing techniques? I’m currently 31weeks
@@katlegomokoena8078 yeah of course 😊 Honestly I started practicing the techniques during my last week of my due date. I did them while watching this particular YT video.
Congrats mum..is this your first delivery?
Wow congrats!! I’m trying to do that but it’s so hard
@@snehapundir2949 thank you and no it's not my first delivery. It's my third, I've done it all except cesarean. First was with epidural, second with only acupuncture and this time was with no medication only these breathing techniques 👌
Can’t recommend this video highly enough. I’m a first time mom and literally breathed my way through labour with the help of one shot of pethidine which I don’t even think made much of a difference. The midwife was so impressed and couldn’t believe I used just my breathing to get through a fairly fast and intense labour. My midwife was actually bored because I didn’t need her help. Women’s bodies are made to do incredible things and we just have to trust them.
Wife getting induced today, going to try these breathing techniques to have a better labor process. Thanks, sounds simple and effective. Pray for mom and baby!
Hope it went well!!!
Followed these breathing techniques on my first born (12/31/2019) and it worked so well! Everyone was amazed that I wasn’t crying or screaming during my contractions! Thank you ❤️
I hope i can do this for my first child birth as well especially with a surgical mask on seeing that it's covid time.
your comment gives me HOPE lol. I am on my first baby and am 26 weeks in 🤞🏾
I had to come back to this video and let you know that because of you and this video, I was able to have the natural, epidural free birth I wanted 3mths ago. I had pitocin and an epidural with my first. I had a reaction to the epidural and long story short, wasn’t able to walk without my leg giving out on me for about 3mths. I didn’t want the possibility of going through that all over again now with a toddler to care for, too. While I was in labor this time around, I literally typed in how to breathe when in labor (lol) and clicked on your video. I watched and did exactly what you instructed the entire time. I went into the hospital breathing as you instructed, blocking out all noise around me and was just focusing. Within 30min of arriving, I delivered. When I was in transition, I wanted to get the epidural but the doctor felt I was doing great and told me to continue breathing as I was. Thank you so much, you are amazing! I will definitely be suggesting your video for any pregnant woman I come across! Xo
Mama, reading this literally makes me tear up. You are amazing for doing what you did! Birth is hard, and you accomplished it so beautifully. I'd love to share this comment at the end of one of my videos if that's okay with you! Sharing stories like this one inspires other mamas to experience the challenge and come out with a victory, just like you!
Bridget Teyler Absolutely you can share! Once again, Thank you so much!
Amazing ...Did you tear?
Props to that dr who believed in you. I feel like the birthing center i went to pushes the epidural on everyone.
I had my baby this Monday 8/5/19, and I want to thank you so so much! You replied to my comment about me being so nervous about delivering my baby with no medication(two weeks ago), well guess what, I DID IT!😭😭💕💕 all thanks to you and your videos! Especially this one! Again, thank you so much!
AHHH MAMA! This is music to my ears! You are SO amazing and now such a wonderful mother! Sending you SO SO SO much love!
Bridget Teyler Thank you so much!💕
Congratulations on your baby!
I’m proud of you for following birth plan and you are amazing for being able to go through everything with no pain medication.
I will be giving birth in a few months and reading your comment gives me more hope I will be as strong as you, it’s so scary and nerve racking thinking about but I know I can do this!
Poppy Paranormal Yes! You got this! And you can definitely do it! Breathing through the contractions is super important! Just focus on that and try to take your mind somewhere else, somewhere peaceful. Sending you nothing but positive vibes!🙏🏼💕
Poppy Paranormal Also, feel free to watch my labor and delivery vlog :)
I had my little one 6 weeks ago and I watched your video everyday in my last trimester. It really helped! Doing the“J” breath is a lot harder than it looks (considering you’re breathing while pushing) but thank you so much for this!! To all expecting moms: when the time comes JUST BREATHE! Breathing is going to get you through the whole thing
Hey Bridget! I just wanted to leave a comment thanking you for your CZcams channel and all your valuable information! My wife and I watched quite a few of your videos in preparation for her labor, especially the breathing technique ones and they worked amazingly. My wife unexpectedly went into labor during week 37 of her pregnancy (which could have been in part to her doing your birth ball exercises 🤔😂) but I was able to be with her and help coach her with her breathing through out labor because we had watched your videos together!! I even found myself saying “remember what Bridget said about breathing” while mimicking your techniques throughout her process!! 😅🤣 She had a natural birth with extremely minimal tearing and did NOT need an epidural during labor! (This was literally 3 days ago!) While I know everyone’s pregnancy and labor is different, I just wanted to thank you again because the techniques really really worked for us! So even though I’m a “Papa” lol I just wanted to thank you again for your channel and information and would recommend it to anyone reading the comments or wondering if it these techniques actually work!
So nice of you to be there to guide your wife and also to thank this god sent lady that is Bridget! 😇
I went into labour while watching this video. These techniques helped so much. I couldn't believe I gave birth naturally. No pain meds what so ever. Just breathing,, staying active, and a warm shower.
I got on all fours in the shower when I went into labor with my son and it feels amazing
Delivered my 9.5 pounds baby normally without epidural last week....thankyou so so much! Your tips and techniques greatly helped me! It was my fourth baby but this time i felt most empowered and confident! I really appreciate your videos. Thanks once again!
I came back here to say THANK YOU. This video among many of yours has helped me give birth Naturally without any pain medications AT ALL. Praise God!!
To all mommas who’ll deliver soon, trust me it is possible to have natural birth with just doing the Breathing techniques. Doing it consciously and purposefully made me ride every painful contractions as they come. next thing I know I’m 8cm dilated when we came to the hospital (I had to have my bag of waters ruptured by my OBGYN in the hospital). I’m a FTM I thought I had to wait till my waters broke before I should go.
I was literally watching this video in the labor room to refresh my memory while I waited to reach 10cm and just doing the Destressor breathing technique. BREATHING IS KEY!
I watched your video a week before giving birth and on the day I went into labour. Baby was born in the bath at the birthing unit in under 5 minutes last week. I used all your breathing techniques and 'breathed' my baby out. It felt like she was coming out on her own and I just needed to help her along. My first baby I remember making a bit of a noise when pushing that it scared my partner haha. But with this time round as I focused on my breathing, I hardly made a sound at all and I was soooo much calmer. I remember once she came out I looked to my partner and said, "I did it!!!". Not just because I gave birth but because I used your breathing techniques and I couldn't believe I remembered what to do and just how it actually worked! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us mama's xo
This is so amazing! Congratulations, Mama!!
This video helped me deliver my baby naturally! That was not my original plan! I just knew I was going to go for an epidural. I kept doing these exercises through each contraction not realizing I made it to 9cm! Thanks to my husband for sending me this video.
Bridget! I watched this video one day before going into the craziest labour ever. Your breathing technique of counting my inhale and exhale was literally one of the only things that got me through to the end. I have a very low pain tolerance and I couldn't believe it but I got through my whole labour without any pain medication. I actually coped so well that we didnt call our midwives until I was already in transition (and didnt realize it!). Thanks so much for putting this information out here! ❤❤
AHH MAMA! I got goosebumps reading this!! Thank you for sharing your story... You're amazing!
This comment just gave me hope and inspiration 🙌🏽♥️. I’m due in 4 months and somewhat scared but I hope I can do it without medication but then I think about it too much and think I can’t do it... and that’s with having high pain tolerance.
This comment gives me hope and brings tears to my eyes. Im such a baby when it comes to pain, but i know so many moms that did it without meds and i am determined to do it too! I am currently pregnant with my 3rd and had an epidural for the first 2. I think i couldve done it without meds the 2nd time. The epidural scares me and always makes it last longer.
Going to be me tomorrow. Watching this video before I go in to get induced tomorrow morning.
Came here to thank you!!! Just had my baby #3 this morning and it took me 3.5 hours from start to end. That's my record!!! Your breathing techniques are AMAZINGLY helpful. With my first 2 kids no one taught me how to breathe correctly, so it took me 8-10 hours and I was in so much pain with them. I recommend these techniques to everyone. Thanks again!!!
I almost died laughing when you said to practice these techniques while you’re in the restroom because honestly, I breathe like this when I’m having a hard time going number two. It always works. Solid advice!!
Omg you’re right! I didnt remember i also do that 😂 truly does work!
Me too. Yesterday was a good one
Same, I breathout when I am pushing 😂
I'm watching this as I'm contracting in the labor room...
me too lol
Did it help!?
I'm due any day now..
@@karlottamarie1247 yes!! Only the 1st one though it really helped and i was induced so the pain was extreme but it helped i went from 0 dialation to 10 just with the breathing technique no gas and air or epidural u can do this! Good luck!
Did it help?
Same here lolololol
I’m a doula, and I think you’re amazing! This is so useful.
39 weeks here, been struggling with rib pain all day and early labor , did a few round of destressing breathing and feel much better! ❤
Love all these techniques!!! I used J-breathing in my first birth and struggled with it so I'm trying to really practice this next time around
Thank you for this wonderful video!! God bless you!!
This is definitely getting you a new subbie, I’m so nervous at only 5 months but I’m gonna keep watching these so that I’m ready.
I just wanted to come back to this video and say it helped me so much during this second birth omg it literally made the pain even more bearable because focusing on the breathing instead of the pain even my nurse told me I was doing a great job breathing and I’m so glad because the first time I felt like I forgot how to breathe because I was so stressed and panicked I just kept hyperventilating this time I conquered the labor and not the other way around so thank you so much!
Finaly some one that tell you how to do the breathing techniques. I'm due on friday. And i was so worries i didnt know any breathing techniques
I'm so glad you found this video! I hope you have a beautiful birth, mama!
Just gave birth to a healthy baby boy yesterday without pain management, praise God! Thankful that I found this vid days before my labour and was able to prepare well. These 3 breathing techniques are very effective mamas, practice and focus when its your turn!
Amazing stuff, shared this with my wife and trying it together. Love the way how simply you’ve broken it down.
My son is due in two weeks and I'm scared! I'm going to practice your techniques to try and feel more calm and in control of the pain and fear of the pain! Thank you!
the destresser breathing technique definitely got me through labor so thank you so much ! 💕
I was so scared for labor but Bridget's videos all prepared me so well and i went in for induction so confident that i could do this. They induced me at 10PM and i gave birth at 12pm the next day. The midwives said that it was the shortest and fastest and smoothest delivery they experienced in a long time. They even called it the magical delivery. I had some good food and good sleep before going to sleep after the induction then i woke up at 3am with pains that kept intensifying but I focussed on breathing techniques and yoga ball movements. It really worked, i was so focussed of these things that i forgot paun relief things even existed. Ladies, this is the best channel to educate yourself and go in with full confidence knowing your body is made for this and that your body CAN do this!! 💪💪💪💪
Your videos have been a huge comfort during this whole covid-19 mess. As of right now I can only have 1 support person with me right now and I’m terrified that will change. All my birth classes have been canceled and your videos have been a comfort to make me feel more prepared. Thank you so much ❤️
Hi Bridget, I googled this and found your video while I was in early labour. My beautiful baby is now 3 weeks old and I have thought of you many times since the birth, wanting to thank you! These breathing techniques helped me so much, I was in active labour for only 90 minutes and I used your breathing techniques the entire time. I needed no pain relief, and didn’t even use gas. I can honestly say my labour was the most beautiful experience and I felt so ‘in control’ using my breath as a tool. Thank you thank you thank you.
The destresser technique almost killed me. I tried doing it with my Wife...could barely breathe...she did great though.
Wow! I’m due in 2 weeks & really want to go through labor smoothly! My last labor was quick but I was just screaming & crying the whole time lol. I hope I remember this when the time comes!
I love you Bridget! Thank you so much for all this information for absolutely free of cost. You’re the hero us pregnant women needed. I thank God to have found your channel. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I gave birth to a beautiful, healthy baby boy on September 4th and your breathing techniques were SOOOO much help 😭 I was at the hospital for 30 hours, 12 in active labor and your breathing techniques helped me cope with the pain for a whole 24 hours unmedicated!
Which technique u used dear ?
Thank you for this, being induced on Sunday, and worked quite close to my birthing date so couldn't go to any antenatal classes, this is the next best thing :) already 2cm dilated, wish me luck!
Currently in the beginning of labor! So glad I came across this now!
Thank you so much. I used your technique to get through my contractions. God bless you
I’m saving this video and going to use it for reference often through my pregnancy so I’m prepared! This is baby #4 and it’s the first time I’ve ever decided to look up breathing techniques. Thank you
I used these breathing techniques for two births. I did not tear for either and so grateful I found this video! Thanks Bridget!
Due in 6 weeks and this has been very assuring and educational! Thank you!
Doing this now in labor, thanks!
Thank you so much Bridget for the breathing techniques.i started labor at 4am but stayed calm and did the destresser breath at home and didn't panic, and continued to do it at the car on the way to the hospital.6am we arrived at the hospital and just continued the destresser breathing.At around 7 am I did the breathing during the transition to resist the urge to bear down,and finally started to push baby out from quarter to 8.Did the J breathing for 20 minutes and at 8:05am am,baby was out! Wow!That was amazing and thanks to you Bridget for your informative videos!
This video is SO helpful - you explain and demonstrate it so clearly, Bridget. I have just hit the third trimester and really hoping to be able to achieve a natural birth. Thank you for adding these techniques to my toolbox :)
What a great video! Thanks for posting!
I am currently in the home stretch with my first pregnancy, we're due Jan 13th. Loving your videos and practicing all these methods everyday. I'm hoping for an all natural labor and delivery!
I had my daughter two years ago and this video is a game changer. Due to controlling my Breaths I was able to give birth unmedicated unlike my first. Rewatching this as a refresher for my third babe due in March! Woohoo
How was it??
It’s been a week since I had my baby and I just wanted to say thank you! Your breathing techniques helped me achieve natural birth! ❤️❤️❤️
In labor right now!!!!! Thank you so much for posting this!!!
I couldn't thank you enough for this. I watched the video whilst waiting to be induced. Once induced and contractions started. I followed the breathing techniques. It felt painless with every contraction. I had chosen for an epidural but I literally refused it. Delivered baby within 8hours from time of induction uneducated. Painless and without tearing. I'm happy
I’m being induced in 9 days, I’m doing these techniques ! Can’t wait 💗💙
It’s been a year since I gave life to my beautiful baby girl. And I revisited this video to send to my sister who is getting induced today. This video was playing in my head throughout labor. Seriously thank you so much for teaching us 🖤
Induction is today!! Haven’t taken any birthing classes so I found this video
I have been practicing the distresser breathing and I think I’ve mastered it so I’m sticking to it! Thank you 😊💕
The destresser breath has helped me with my Braxton Hicks contractions in the middle of the night!! Thanks for the tips.
Wanted to thank you Bridget for all these wonderful videos. I watched all your videos leading up to the birth of my son and it went wonderfully! My water broke spontaneously on April 12, 2021 at 3:30PM and my son was born on April 13th at 8:30AM. I was pain free all the way through and I pushed him out using the "J" breath and making vowel sounds! It was awesome! Thanks again!
So thankful I found your channel and this video 💕 I am due any day now and am planning a natural birth. I think the anxiety of not knowing when I’m going into labor is making me more nervous than the actual labor part. Thank you for giving us such helpful info ☺️❤️
thank you!! I'm due in 3 weeks with my 1st and I'm goin to use these techniques ♡
Gave birth 2 weeks ago: natural birth of posterior positioned baby in 5 hours! The destressor breath saved me during labour. Thank you Bridget for this technique! I am so glad I got to experience the accomplishment and joy of a natural birth.
You saved my labour experience!! I found this video when I realized I was going into active labour and you literally helped me breathe right and have the nurses applaud my breathing!! Thank you! P.S. baby just born yesterday!!
I just wanna say you are god sent, Bridget!!! Thank you so much for making these videos
Doula in training here in the Bay Area and I just happened upon your channel. Thank you so very much. Most informative.
I’m a 46 year old mom, had our last in October 2019, she weighed 10 pounds. We have seven children all together. I have to say this is the BEST breathing technique that I ever used during any childbirth experience. I cannot express to you enough the gratitude of you sharing this.
This is SO amazing!!! I loved reading your comment, mama!
Hello did you do the Destresser During pushing?
46?? you're giving me hope!
Keep making videos love! Very helpful
I will! Thank you! And I hope they helpful! Let me know if there are any topics you'd like me to talk about in a video!!
Wow! Even without being in labour. I find these techniques very relaxing
Hi Bridget, I’m 7 months pregnant and due on December 1st. It’s a girl ❤️ This is my first baby and I’m trying to educate myself so I know what is happening and what to do so I don’t panic. Thank you for making this video, I will be rewatching and practicing and hopefully things go smoothly.
I was induced, but managed to have a natural birth due to this video! I’d like to thank you so much for your tips and videos. They are very helpful and you have a new subscriber!
I came back to thank you!
I just delivered my second baby and it was a breeze compared to my first. The whole breathing technique made contractions a whole lot easier to bear. My labor progressed significantly faster compared to my first and i did not beg for an epidural this time. I was not induced as well. No tearing! The doctor congratulated me on what she called an almost perfect labor and delivery.
I wish i had seen your video when i delivered my first baby but still i want to say thank you so much!
Hi darling which breathing technique u used please reply
@@fateha2536 the destresser breathing
Watching this again while having contractions. Its really helping.
I just went through my fourth delivery but my first non medicated as I had a home birth this time. I watched many of your videos to prepare myself for all of it. Your breathing techniques work! I was able to birth easier, faster, and felt in control of my labor! Thank you so much! I am so grateful I came across your channel
I gave birth on Saturday after a long labor of 33 hrs. I eventually did get the epidural as I couldn't bear the pain anymore however these techniques got me through the first 27 hrs of labor. Thank you!!
WOW YOU DID AWESOME!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
i’ve been on the epidural for almost 5 hours and i’m still getting super painful contractions in my stomach and back. gonna try these ! thank you ❤️
Thank you for your video! I am due on 19th September! Super nervous and excited! Love your videos and your sweet smile! 😊
having the contractions started, and trying the technique of 4s inhale and 6s exhale and it helps. Such a pleasant and calm girl showing the techniques❤️
Hey Bridget! I wanted to reach out and thank you for the video. I gave birth last week and was able to labor at home until I was 7cm all thanks to your breathing techniques! By the time I arrived at the hospital, the nurses were shocked (and I was too!) that I made it that far without coming in. I also used your breathing techniques in order to relax more. There was a period of my labor where I stalled for 10 hours and no progress was made. I was an hour away from getting a c-section. During those long, stressful 10 hours I concentrated on my breathing and calming down. A true miracle happened in that last hour that I finally dilated enough and was able to deliver my baby girl the way I wanted. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
33weeks today! And im practicing my breathing technique.
I just wanted to comment and say I watched each and every single one of your videos throughout my pregnancy with my daughter in 2019. I went into labour with her naturally and had the most beautiful drug & intervention free birth experience I could have wished for ❤️ and I can truly say your words are what got me through every piece of that. Your J breath technique brought my baby into this world. I had the VBAC I had prayed for for so long. Thank you you are amazing keep up the great work xx
Can’t thank you enough Bridget for this amazing video . Really this breathing technique helped me a lot during my labour . I’m glad I came across this video such a life saver.
Got through my induction and had a non-medicated birth thanks to this video! Thank you thank you thank you. It was a beautiful experience.
I'm due in 3 months and I am looking forward to use this breathing techniques 🙏
Thank you so much for making your advice and coaching available online! Your breathing techniques and affirmations helped me get through a Pitocin induction with nothing but 2 extra strength Tylenol. It was intense but we made it and everyone is healthy!
I’m so grateful for this vid!
I literally watched this video during labor yesterday it helped so much!!! I did it with no epidural 💜
Omg I’m 37 and had a couple of braxton hicks - when I get it I automatically hold my breath 😱 I’m so glad I’m watching this now!!!
How did the birth go?
Wow! I just learned so much! I love how it was 3 easy breathing techniques so I can remember them so much better. And you explained them and how to do it really well! So helpful! Thank you!
This was really supportive during the my daughters pregnancy in 2019 and I make reference to this video now in helping other mamas. much love and gratitude
OMG this came up from when I saved it 3 years ago 😭 Enjoy labour ladies, it was the most magical moment in life for me. THEY REALLY DO GROW SO QUICK
Currently 3 cm and been on pitocin, these are getting very intense and I thank you for making this. Going to try to go natural with no drugs 💕
Thank you so much! You did a good job explaining and sticking to the point. It was very peaceful to listen to and clear. I was able to send it to a friend who is at the hospital getting ready and didn't know about breathing. This is really gonna help her ❤
