I went to see a midwife who trained in Hypnotherapy in Trowbridge, Wiltshire. I only had a few sessions and that was enough. Here is a link to a web page all about her.

Hope this helps. If you have any more questions please ask

I'm going through hypnobirthing classes at the moment with my OH in preparation for my 2nd child.

Seems really good - they don't promise a pain free birth, but the whole thing seems to be much more relaxed and helps you to work with your body to birth your baby

NB: Used birthing pool for birth of my DS - but think I got in the water way too early which slowed my labour. Really nice though, but go with what you feel as it's happening - if you try water and don't really like it then get out - on the other hand if you love it use it.....
