Sweet and Low-
Labor and Delivery Preparation-
by Jill Diana Chasse
Your mind and body are relaxed and strong, and ready for the journey through birth.
You will soon he ready to help bring your baby into the outside world.
You work as a team, together.
You and your baby are prepared and excited for this joyful event.
You feel pride, strength and happiness.
Childbirth is natural - Your body knows exactly what to do.
Your baby knows exactly what to do and is strong and ready for the birthing
Your contractions come and go like waves breaking on the shore - each one
bringing your baby further down the birth canal and closer and closer to your arms.
Your breathing is slow and even and sweet and low - sweet and low, breathe
and blow. Sweet and low, breathe and blow, as the baby lowers and descends naturally.
Sweet and low, sweet and low- breathe and blow, breathe and blow.
You are doing so well, the baby is doing so well. Your jaw is loose and relaxed, releasing any tension, your hands are loose and limp and relaxed - your belly and bottom are loose and relaxed making it easy for the baby to lower down the birth passage, down and low - and sweet and low - breathe and blow,
And contractions that peak and fall come and go like waves of the ocean -
You rest deeply between contractions and the baby rests as well between one contraction to the next. You are doing so wonderfully, so naturally, so well.
You are so happy, enjoying each magical moment of this special event. Your baby feels your happiness and shares it. You are mentally relaxed and you can work with your contractions and enjoy and experience this wonderful event
When the time comes for your baby to come into the outside world,
You will be ready and prepared - All you have to do is remember the relaxation and strength you felt here and you can bring yourself to this positive and tranquil state of mind.
Repeat the words, sweet and low - sweet and low, breathe and blow, breathe and blow- over and over in your mind, and even aloud if you wish during the birthing process and you will stay relaxed and focused.
With this confidence and energy you have gained now, you are ready to return
to full consciousness.
In a moment I will count from 1 to 5 and you will he ready to come alert and refreshed. You will remember the calm tranquility you now feel and can simply repeat the words, sweet and low, breathe and blow, when the baby is ready to come.
Breathe and relax, and listen to the numbers as you begin to emerge.
1 - starting to emerge from this deep, relaxed state
2- becoming more alert now, more aware
3- you your mind is clear and refreshed
4- you are still calm but now more aware of your surroundings and
starting to smile and glow with the joy you’ve brought with you
5- your eyes are open and you feel refreshed, alert, and wonderful in
every way
