The power of positive thinking changed my pregnancy
I used Hypnobabies Pregnancy Affirmations from the very early days of my pregnancy. This helped a lot to ease my fears of miscarriage (due to some medical reasons, I have a higher-than-usual chance of miscarriage). The affirmations CD helped me trust my body, and rejoyce in the miracle of pregnancy and learn to visualize and expect the best. I actually started to beliece that my body was my friend, not my enemy! The affirmations reduced my fear and anxiety, and helped me feel more confident and calm. There are great suggestions like: "Pregnancy is natural, normal, healthy and safe... My changing body is radiantly beautiful... I eat nourishing food every day for my baby... my baby is safe within me now... Growing my baby is empowering for me... with every day that goes by, I feel more confident about my pregnancy... all decisions for my pregnancy are mine to make... I am strong, confident, assured and assertive" and so on. This made an amazing difference in my pregnancy. Even a few months after my baby was born (yes, healthy, happy, full-term, with a fabulous natural Hypnobabies birth), I still use some of these affirmations about confidence, choice, having a voice, and loving my body and taking care of myself.<br /><br />The other CDs are amazing too - I especially love the sleep cd for expectant moms... it puts me out right away every time I listen to it, which is such a blessing with a little one needing my attention throughouot the night... using my 'peaceful sleep now' cue, I can drift right off to sleep again. An amazing, life-altering gift for any expecting friends, or the best gift you could buy for yourself or your partner!
