Hypnobirthing, A Method of Delivery

We often heard about Hypnobirthing . Do we really know it? Is it good method and safe for us? Let’s find out what hypnobirthing all about..

Hypnobirthing is one method of delivery. Hypnobirthing  is defined as the process of hypnosis.  With emphasis on  pregnant woman doing relaxation exercise and planting subconscious concepts that support the conscious control of the sensations and actions of these women during their delivery.

Every child birth  will surely bring pain due to stretching of the cervix. There is no childbirth without  pain. But the it can be reduced by pharmacological as systemic analgesics, inhalation analgesia, nerve blockade analgesia (epidural blockade / LEA and intrathecal blockade / ILA and non-pharmacological hypnotic, regulate breathing and others.

Pain on childbirth can cause anxiety and fatigue and can cause negative effects on the progress of delivery. Pain response depends on the culture and perception of maternal before. All pregnant mother surely expect the delivery process run smoothly without having to feel the pain. So that pain management is an important aspect in obstetrical care.

Until now, midwifery approach to helping labor is still in the physical. Therefore there a need  need to develop hypnobirthing to help labor overall (physical, mental and spiritual). If the benefit of hypnobirthing  developed,  besides preparing  natural, smooth and comfortable childbirth,  the babies will be born in  physically and mentally health. And the benefits for the mother is increase milk production and prevent postpartum depression.
