Breathing
There are two main types of breathing that are important to an expectant mother.
There is the three phase breathing and the ‘hoo hoo ha’. The ‘three phase breathing’ allows a much deeper breath and allows the mother complete relaxation and control. This will be used in each contraction until the midwife says not to push, then the other form of breathing used is ‘hoo hoo ha’. The breathing techniques used in the labour are also used in the yoga based exercise. There is plenty of opportunity for practice.
