Erin attended our Hypnobubs Hypnobirthing Online Course<\/a> and this is her inspiring birth story…<\/p>\n

Our little man, Ed made his arrival at 1:37pm on 23\/11 after quite a brief labour, so much so that I didn’t have a chance to use a lot of the items (essential oils, candles etc) and techniques I had spent so much time preparing!<\/p>\n

My surges really kicked off at around 8am, and I was able to manage them quite simply with the surge breathing on a birth ball, bearing in mind we thought we were only in very early labour…
\nLiving so close to the hospital, we went up for observation (everything was fine, but I wasn’t sure my waters were broken) and were sent home to rest at 11:30am. I now know that as we left the hospital I was beginning to transition, as my discomfort was increasing and no position seemed to be quite right.<\/p>\n

My husband was excited at one point when he noticed me “panicked” over one surge that just wracked my whole body and I felt an urge to push.
\nSo back to the hospital we go at 12:30pm, where I had my first VE after which I was whisked to birth suite as it was well and truly show time!!\u00a0Ed was born within an hour, and it was such a fabulous experience.
\nMy husband was amazed at how calm and quiet I was throughout the entire labour, and I honestly think my mindset is what set me up for a great final pregnancy stage, a great labour and the awesome, relaxed little man we have with us now.
\nIt also aided my recovery, as I did need a few stitches but I barely even noticed, as it had all been so brilliant. I can definitely see how a woman’s mindset would have a significant influence on the outcome of their health, and that of their baby.<\/p>\n

I can’t recommend these techniques highly enough and have been telling anyone who cares to listen, so this is a long winded way of saying THANK YOU for providing the (online hypnobubs<\/a>) course, resources and the access to those of us that would otherwise miss out on the opportunity to have amazing birth experiences.<\/p>\n

Thanks again,
\nErin<\/p>\n
