Jessica Hypnobirthing baby


Hope you are all well. Sorry it’s taken a while to get round to sending this, but wanted to let you all know that baby Jessica was born on March 10th, 7lb, all healthy, pink and screaming!

We were so close to our perfect home birth, but in the end it wasn’t meant to be – I successfully laboured at home, got to 10 cm dilated, and waters broke, with lovely midwife, who fully embraced the hypnobirthing techniques: she was quiet and discreet, and only examined me twice, and helped with the gentle touch massage (when Riaan had to go outside and rescue the dustbins halfway through the night - it was the night of the really big storm!)!!. Riaan was brilliant and I have to say all the practice really paid off, we were both calm and relaxed, and what surprised me the most was how powerful all the affirmations were – anytime I felt tired or any doubts crept into my mind, there were the affirmations popping into my head to keep me back on track.

Dearest Katharine.
 
We hope you're well. We're so sorry we missed our second hypno-birthing session on Saturday - but you could say i was putting what we'd learned the previous week into practice!!
My waters broke on Saturday morning at 2.30 am and so, as you were teaching more hypno birthing we were delivering our new son, Blake Nathaniel Evans!!
I have to say, and from the bottom of my heart, that even just the one session of hypno birthing and listening to the CD in the week before, helped immensly.

Yesterday Rob & I attended Day 1 of a 2-day course in Hypnobirthing. Although neither of us knew what to expect (and Rob was only really coming because I’d asked him to support me) …we both thought it was BRILLIANT!!

Rob rang one of his best mates who’s expecting at the same time as us to recommend it, straight after the course finished, and I thought you might appreciate knowing about it.

Baby Gil E-mail
HypnoBirthing Baby Gil with his Father PaulAt last, and it feels as though your babies may all be teenagers by now, I am delighted to report the safe arrival of our baby boy, Gil.

He arrived last Monday (St Patrick's Day) 14 days from his due date having been jigged into action. I had just the first pessary and then he raced into the world with a surprisingly quick labour. The 2nd stage was estimated as 3 hours although I was not in fact examined after being 1-2 cm so we are not sure from when technically we should count.

Samuel Born Naturally E-mail
My husband Pete and I attended your hypno birthing class in Primrose Hill in January and I wanted to write and thank you so much for the classes. Little Samuel was born on 17 March weighing 7lbs 13 oz with a fully natural birth (thankfully despite being 13 days past the 'due date'). It was a 14 hour labour, with no complications, no need for pain relief and was the wonderful and positive experience I had hoped for. I used many of the hypno techniques and am certain that these made all the difference to his birth. Sam is feeding extremely well (and has more energy than his parents!!) and is a beautiful, calm baby.

Thank you again,
Sally & Pete

If you are based in Surrey and South London, we hope you will find our classes in either Teddington or on the South Bank easy to get to.  The Teddington venue is only yards from Kingston Bridge, and The South Bank course is extremely easy for all lines in to Waterloo Station.

Real HypnoBirthing Stories

Thank you very much Katharine.
 
As you know, I was extremely sceptical that about hypnosis in general, I did not think it could ever work for me! After coming to your course, I realise my judgement
was only based on my ignorance of the subject and I'm really glad we followed my friend's advice and looked into hypnobirthing which led us to you.
 
Both Jamie and I have really enjoyed the course and I feel I have already learnt a lot of useful skills from it that I can use straightaway. The relaxation
exercises for example have been helping me sleep more restfully since after the first session and I feel even calmer and happier about the birth of our baby- we
can't wait!  I very often visualise the amazing moment that we'll meet her and hold her in our arms, which is lovely.
 
We will definitely let you know about our personal hypnobirthing experience, soon.
 
Thanks again and take care.
