√ Super fast delivery
√ No episiotomy
In the middle of the night, my water broke, but I didn’t feel any contractions. After waiting at the hospital until the next morning with no symptoms, we decided to proceed with induction.
I started the induction medication around 8 a.m., and by 9 a.m., I began to feel contractions. During this time, I used the restroom to sit on the toilet and applied warm water to my belly, which I found quite effective.
My husband also helped by massaging me and trying to make me laugh, though I couldn’t manage to laugh at the moment. As you mentioned, we truly entered our own zone.
Throughout the labor process, I was only examined internally three times, and the doctor was very accommodating. When I felt the urge to push, I asked the nurse to check, and she had to call the doctor before performing the internal examination.
I didn’t have an episiotomy, only a slight tear.
I believe childbirth isn’t as terrifying as one might imagine, especially when using the right methods to cope. I’m very grateful for the HypnoBirthing course.
【Mentor’s Note】
Jiajia is the wife of my high school friend, Pia. When they attended the classes, they were always full of laughter.
That afternoon, Pia sent photos of their baby, mentioning that they did skin-to-skin contact immediately after birth, and the baby looked very gentle.
The highlight is that the entire labor process only took 5 hours, which is incredibly fast!
Jiajia said this birthing experience has removed her fear of childbirth, which is wonderful!
P.S.: I actually received this birth story a while ago and kept it (I’m not sure why I held onto it for so long), but I’m finally sharing it now!
