I was busy complaining to the obstetrician about how uncomfortable I was finding sleeping.  He said that I would experience everything four weeks earlier this pregnancy than last.  But this discomfort, stiffness etc seems to be about 4 months early.  Then I suddenly thought it might be lack of exercise.  I’ve been sick so long this pregnancy that I’ve done no exercise and yet last time I was doing lots of swimming and yoga.  So I did your yoga DVD and that night I had the best most comfortable sleep I’d had in ages.  I did it again yesterday and last night had another good night.  I shall make sure I do it as often as I can. It’s amazing what a  bit of stretching does for you.

Thanks so much for the course on Sat. Both Pete and I got a lot out of it. The booklet and labour card are great too as I have browsed through them both to remind me of what we did. I actually loved that it was a small group as it felt very comfortable and was easier to ask questions and to chat to the other couple who had been through it before. I found the whole afternoon very calming and reassuring and it made me feel more confident about facing childbirth. I really want to try to experience childbirth in a positive way and your practical ideas and down to earth approach has helped to alleviate my anxiety.
