Hello,
I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant, before I was pregnant I had just managed to overcome vaginismus after 10 years.
It was not caused by anything traumatic, this is my first child, just by being a fearful person & not letting go.
I've bought the 4 cd natal hypnotherapy set & will be starting lazy daisy birthing classes next week.
The hypnotherapy book makes a lot of sense in the respect of letting my body take over during birth & not allowing my tricky thoughts get in the way, but obviously this is something I struggled with for 10 years!
I just wondered if there were any other women who had vaginismus either when they were pregnant or before but still went on to have a straightforward birth, this is my first so I am totally in the blind about what it's actually like.
