5.0 out of 5 stars All Hypnobabies Students automatically get this book!, October 1, 2003

Back Labor No More is a *must have* book for all pregnant women! It has made a huge difference for so many of my students; shorter easier labors, turning posterior babies so easily and effectively. It also helps anterior babies to descend faster and easier, since the angle of the baby changes immediately - down and OUT! I also advise all CBE's, doulas, midwives, L&D nurses and OBs to read it and use the techniques with their patients. It can make an otherwise difficult birthing go much smoother, and definitely faster.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential information for any pregnant woman, November 29, 2004

This review is from: Back Labor No More!!: What Every Woman Should Know Before Labor (Paperback)

I purchased this book on the advice of a childbirth educator and was thrilled with the information. As an engineer, I didn't need the simplistic explanations of vectors, but it is fun to read and can be easily understood by anyone, no matter what their education and background. Learning the "Belly Lift" helped me get through my second experience with back labor more easily than the first time. Combining the knowledge contained in this book with the "Hypnobabies" childbirth hypnosis course allowed me to have a fast, painless, drug-free birth. I recommend this book, especially in combination with Hypnobabies, to any woman who wants a comfortable, enjoyable birth experience! It's such an amazing gift to give yourself and your baby. If you're expecting, buy this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars It Just Makes Sense!, June 20, 2005

Janie King's book is a must-read for any woman who wants to avoid the discomfort of back labor and help move her birth along with very little effort. Janie's explanation of vectors just makes sense and when women use her "belly lift" technique -- well, let's just say she better be wherever it is that she plans to give birth! Yes, it's THAT effective!

I'm thrilled that "Back Labor No More" is included in the Hypnobabies Hypnosis for Childbirth program. As a Hypnobabies childbirth instructor, I want to be able to share techniques with my students that will help them to have a gentler, safer, and faster birth (by using hypnosis it's already comfortable!)-- and this technique is one of the best! I highly recommend this book to all expectant moms. The "Belly Lift" ROCKS!!!
