Nicole Richie is seeing a hypnotist because she is terrified of having her baby, according to reports.

The Simple Life star wants advice on handling the pain when she gives birth to her first child with Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden later this month.

Nicole's father Lionel Richie recently revealed that she was carrying a boy.
