I don't even know if anyone will read this but if anyone does, specially that momma that is about to have her 1st born, hear me out. What Bridget is saying is so true. On March, 25th, 2021 I was having contractions with my 1st born baby. It was late at night and I was watching many of Bridget's videos about breathing, labor stages, and others. What I focused on the most from her videos was to breathe through my contractions. I did this. I didn't honestly count as she suggested, I didn't use that method, but I did breathe in deep and slow and out slowly, trying to relax, and guess what? My baby popped right out. yes! I am not kidding. I only pushed once and just breathed through my contractions through it all. Labor was intense, don't get me wrong, but focusing on my breath made it manageable.

7-8cm now and watching this. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” -Philippians 4:13

We can do this Mommas!

Okay so, hear me out. My first birth was absolutely traumatic. Hospital birth, induction, epidural, and then I had a postpartum hemorrhage. So with my second baby I knew for a fact I wasn’t going to let that happen again so I opted to go as natural and intervention free as possible. I took Bridget’s birth class and watched these videos religiously AND LET ME TELL YOU. My birth was honestly better than I could’ve asked for and this video is GOLD. The ONLY way I was able to get through my birth without crying/yelling even one time was this breathing technique. I did it my entire labor, kept myself as relaxed as possible, and I was able to have a completely intervention free birth. I was never even touched by my midwife until after my baby’s head came out. Ugh. THANK YOU BRIDGET 🥺

[stephaniehernandez]

With my first baby, I refused to hear other womans stories, or as I would call them, horror stories. I refused to let them scare me about the labor pain. I said “once baby comes, my body will naturally know what to do.” And sure enough I did most my labor at home thinking it was only the beginning until I noticed my body was already wanting to push. That’s when I knew I had to go to the hospital. I pushed in the truck on my way to the hospital and broke my water in the truck as well. Once I got to the hospital I pushed maybe about 5 times and my son was born.

[haleylane]

I did this instinctively with my last birth. After two horribly traumatic births, I refused to go to the hospital until I was in transition. I was relaxed at home and breathed through the contractions and worked with my body. I was amazed how fast my labor went and how easy it was compared to my other labors. 30 seconds after walking into the hospital i got the urge to push, I told the intake nurse this and she didn't believe me because I was so calm. I ended up walking about 10 ft to a gurney left in the hallway and giving birth on that. Took 2 pushes, no screaming, minimal pain (all things considered). I'm currently 33 weeks pregnant with my 4th and so excited to just go ahead and do a home birth. I am legitimately excited for birth.

I had VBAC for my 2nd and got into hypnobirthing for my 2nd. I did focus on breathing (deep in and sigh out) during wave of surges. I focused on letting go of fear - which i had for my first. Had the surges at home and in the car (2 hrs ish) got to the hospital and midwife said she could see the hair, and it was about time to push. Baby was born in 10-15 min i was in that precheck room. My 1st son and husband were not even sent home. ❤❤❤❤ Im 30 weeks with my 3rd and current goal is both easy natural birth+ no tearing 😊😊😊.

[osoriodanny]

I swear by this breathing method. I delivered an 8 pound baby boy today, no pain medicines. I had requested for an epidural but the breathing control and a bathtub helped me getting to full dilation without pain killers.

Thanks thanks thanks from the bottom of my heart for sharing this content ❤ after having my first with a csection, this experience was magical

[manuelarodriguez]

I did this during my labor and let me tell you it works!!!! I was able to handle my contractions and I am a person who is not good with pain at all and this really helped me

[biancathebananatv]

Okay, I have to come back here after I gave birth to tell you guys this is the best advice ever!!! My OBGYN told me that since it's my first pregnancy, labor is gonna be long and it's not gonna be easy. But guys, I only spent 2 hours in the labor room, that's 5cm to 10cm. What I did was I tried to take a nap (altho it was hard), I rested save up energy so I'll have all the energy I need when it's time to push, and this breathing exercises! It worked so perfectly! 💕💕 THANK YOU BRIDGET!

I also want to thank you because through my entire pregnancy, your videos helped me alot. Delivered the baby easy and safely. ❤️

[novasmotion]

I just gave birth this evening to my third son. I had excruciating back labor up until he turned at 10 cm, but I kid you not, focusing on my breath, and not rushing through the pushing stage saved me. He was almost 8 pounds, and I did not tear at all. I breathe him down and out, using the J breath, and staying on my hands and knees/side and I’m amazed at how recovery is going! I’m so happy to say this has been the best birth yet! Thank you Bridgett!

[yerimarorta]

You need to create a podcast with all this useful information so we can listen to you 24/7.

[carsonlewallen]

I paid $70 for a online Hyponobirthing class to only take away this breathing technique. You're videos are a God send.

[brownbirth]

I was in labour and did not know as I was practicing this breathing technique - once I reached the hospital for just a day assesment I was measuring at 6cm dilated - I promise you this technique works ! I was only pushing for half hour and was in labour for a total of 5-6 hours ! I also have a very low pain threshold but was told by the midwives I do have a high threshold and how I am made to deliver babies 😅😂

I also followed Bridgets pregnancy ball excises too both combined together I was able able to experience a pleasant labour and delivery ☺️

[nitole]

I did the destresser breath without watching any videos or researching it 🤷🏼‍♀️ and all the nurses were so confused as to why I wasn't in any pain lol. I was on high doses of pitocin with little pain. 10/10 recommended 👍🏻

[jheriengdahl]

I used this breathwork when I was sadly having a miscarriage. I had intense labor pains (I know since I already have a son and experienced birth trauma with him). I was so calm that I fell into a trance and fell asleep without pain medication. Now I’m pregnant with my rainbow and feel more confident in my body’s ability to give birth and actually looking forward to the day when I do. Thank you for this video. I wished I had this knowledge with my first son.

[MsTballs]

This really works! I just delivered my second baby and I honestly didn't register the contractions as 'pain' this time as a result of using this breathing technique throughout labour and listening to Bridget's birth affirmation meditation tracks which helped me stay calm and focused. I also recommend listening to Ina May's Guide to Childbirth which Bridget mentions in another video - it made me believe in the power and capability of women/our bodies to deliver babies naturally.

For all the pregnant mama's reading this - you got this! Thank you Bridget for creating such wonderful content.

[juanitagallegos]

I just wanted to say thank you so much! I found your video this morning without having contractions, after a couple of hours I started to have contractions really painful and this breathing was a life saver for me during all stages of labor. My baby boy was born a couple of hours ago. Completely free of meds.

[carrie]

Literally watched this video on the morning I was laboring at home, and it was a LIFE SAVER! In the end I progressed so fast once I got to the hospital that I wasn't able to get an epidural and ended up with a natural birth. Scary, but I was able to breathe through it using this technique!

[HmmYeaOk]

Breathing and humming helped me ALOT! No meds no screaming or cussing

[navishtafazal]

Hi Briget..I am 39 weeks pregnant...just needed to inform other mommies that this breathing technique also helps during less fetal movements! After destresser breath..my child starts tweaking and moving....
