Our First NCT Class
It's quite easy to forget that normal pregnancy things are also going on and so off we go to an NCT class to learn about all the pregnancy things that we need to know like norrmal parents. Or something! Quite a lot of giggling about the stages of giving birth and guessing when the neo-natologists would start injecting, there was also some overlap with the hypno-birthing\relaxation meetings that we are doing.
It will be useful and ensures that we don't forget what's going on.
Visualisation Techniques For Relaxing...
"Imagine you are on an island, you are standing on a large hill in the centre of the island, you are surrounded by grassy fields. Below this you can see trees and jungle stretching down to beaches and a deep blue sea. The grass is long and you can see it sway gently in the breeze. There is a path flowing gently down the hill into the forest..."
yippee!! singletrack :) We've found the holey trail! This path is clearly going to be the best of the best descent you've ever done. And you are going to nail it perfectly.
"... you walk slowly down the hill..."
Walk?! sod that I'm imagining riding the best bits of every downhill i've ever done. And this time riding them properly!
Apparently going "whoop" in the middle of a hypno-birthing session is considered bad form. Not very relaxing by all accounts. Oh well.
