Hypnobabies LIVE online radio show!

I recorded an interview last week with Kerry Tuschhoff, founder of Hypnobabies, for her online radio show. It airs tomorrow, and again Saturday, and then will be archived online. This interview is more about my personal birthing history, what led me to choose a twin HBAC, and a little about natural twin birth. I'm recording another one in a few weeks (that will air July 11) that will address specific tips for improving outcomes in twin pregnancy and planning for a natural twin birth.

Anyway, here are the details about accessing it if anyone is interested, copied and pasted from the Hypnobabies newsletter:

Birthing Twins Naturally!

This week, Friday June 13th at 9 AM Pacific Time (and Sat. 6/14 at 1 PM Pacific Time) on Hypnobabies LIVE at http://www.HealthyLife.net we have Christy, mother of 5 children, including VBAC, homebirthed twins!

Our show this week is very important since many women having multiples are told that their babies will be premature and must be delivered by Cesarean section. Not true! Christy's babies were 7 lbs each and born vaginally, at home and were a VBAC. Christy very candidly shares all of her birth stories; very personal journeys of self-discovery and growth....

Please join us for this very special show, and please pass this information on.
