Mel’s Empowering & Healing VBAC
“At 6.40am, Makybe was born, 9.6pounds/4.35 kilograms! I got my delayed cord clamping & golden hour as requested too. It was the most empowering & healing birth, the complete opposite to my first birth & I am so happy I was well informed & trusted my gut instinct & body.”
Gina and Donny’s Natural Twin Hypnobirth
“Everything is still surreal. As I look at my two beautiful girls I am so proud of what I achieved, backing myself & trusting in my innate abilities & in my babies to birth them. All the midwives at the hospital told me that it’s a rare sighting for them to see these days.”
Kirstin’s Calm and Healing Hypnobirth with Induction

My total labour was about 4.5 hours and I was involuntarily pushing for about 1.5 hours....I can’t wait to birth again at home. It was a beautiful, empowering experience."](https://i0.wp.com/www.positivelyhypnobirthing.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Mikaela-Birth-Story-Hypnobirthing-6-Waterbirth-Homebirth.jpg?resize=698%2C442&ssl=1 "Mikaela’s Undisturbed 4.5hr Hypnobirth in the Water at Home")

Katie’s Story of Baby Ayla’s Birth – A Magical Maternal Assisted CS Delivery
“When the time came, I was given long sterile gloves and the drape was lowered after baby’s head was out. She made the tiniest little noise but did not cry. The lights were dimmed and I reached over and grabbed her under her arms and pulled her out to my chest.”

Katrina and Michael’s Powerful and Empowering 3.5 Hour Birth
“While we never set out for a natural birth, I am so grateful – and still processing – every part of our birth and how we brought our little man, Lenny, into the world on the 22 November 2021. We never had a set plan (healthiest and safest way), but I can say we did it as calm as possible, and thankful…
