Our baby Hannah Adele Laws was born on September 19th.
The birth went wonderfully. I was a week late and the
labor took a long time, but everything went well. I
started having surges 5 minutes apart on Tues. 18th at
5 am, they were consistent all day and kept getting
stronger, so we decided to spend the night at my
grandparents in South Jordan since we live 1/2 an hour
from the hospital. Finally at 2 am they started
coming every three minutes and they were strong enough
I couldn’t just sleep through all of it – I stayed
relaxed, but I couldn’t sleep soundly. My husband
decided we should go to the hospital at 5:30 after
having surges 3 min apart for 3 hours. We got to the
hospital at 6 and I was still only a 2, but we decided
I should stay since my surges were so consistent and
had been for so long. My nurse was absolutely
wonderful and wanted to help in any way she could so I
could have a natural birth. I was able to use the
birthing ball, listen to music, use the nice tub they
had. I finally had her at 6 pm that night. I did it
all naturally like I wanted and it was wonderful. My
doctor is amazing and was willing to do things the way
I wanted. Our baby came out so alert with wide eyes
and has been ever since. I was able to get up and
walk right after and felt great ever since.

We love having our baby here, she is such a good baby.
I am so glad I took your class and was able to use
the hypnobirthing method. Thank you so much for
being such a great teacher and preparing us.

the second is when she is 4 days old.

Thanks again Launi, you are wonderful.
