I often tell mothers who are attending our Hypnobirthing Australia<\/a> and Hypnobubs<\/a>\u00a0classes that we can ‘think’ that we are making a LOT\u00a0more noise during labour, than we actually are!<\/p>\n

This is\u00a0feedback we received from a new mum who recently birthed her\u00a0baby after completing our online<\/a> course.<\/p>\n

My labour progressed very quickly. I arrived at hospital just after 10 and Bub was born 11.17. I think I dealt with it well and found strength from my hypnobubs\u00a0techniques.<\/p>\n

My hubby kept telling people I ‘made it look easy’ and I ‘remained quiet’ the whole way through the labour even tho I was screaming inside during some moments! lol<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"I can also remember feeling like I was REALLY\u00a0loud at particular\u00a0times when birthing my babies. The funny thing is, in actual fact, most of the noise was happening in my head! Yes, I still did use vocalisation – but it\u00a0was very helpful sounds (deep guttural sounds that helped me to bear down). My ‘perception’ of how much noise I was making was not in sync with reality!<\/p>\n

When we use\u00a0self-hypnosis\u00a0– we are in a\u00a0heightened state of awareness. Because we have a combination of good knowledge, support, preparation and tools <\/a>(deep relaxation, breathing and other techniques); we\u00a0hypnobirthing mamas have\u00a0WONDERFUL\u00a0coping mechanisms during our labour. It blows most people (who are supporting us through birth) away!
\nSometimes, when we look back on our birthing videos\/photos or receive feedback from others… we are pleasantly surprised by just how ‘in control’ we were at a time when we were ‘letting go’.<\/p>\n

That’s the magic of our Hypnobirthing Australia<\/a> and Hypnobubs<\/a> program! ?<\/p>\n
