"I got to 8cm’s dilated AT HOME! I spent about 4 hours at the hospital before giving birth."

"I knew it wouldn’t be long as when I was on all fours on the bed waiting for the pool to be filled I had the feeling of wanting to bear down and honestly 10 minutes after I got into the water our little baby boy was here."

"I had the same instinct as I did with Alvie and needed to lay on my side with my leg up to birth our beautiful chunky monkey. We did it all with no pain relief and just all our hypnobirthing tools from last time with you."

"I went into labour on Christmas morning, they couldn't stop it. It was very fast. It was 40 mins all up from onset to baby being born."

"From my first contraction at 9:30pm to her delivery at 10:38pm (on my bedroom floor!!) she was a speedy gal who wanted to be out asap. Paramedics walked through our door just as Hugo was catching her!"

Here’s how birth partners can transform from passive bystanders into empowered, amazing supports:
When it comes to birth, many partners are unsure about their role. They might feel they’ll be on the sidelines, offering occasional encouragement, but hypnobirthing changes the game. In hypnobirthing, partners are central to the process, equipped with skills to provide meaningful, active support and to advocate for the birthing person’s needs.

"I kept moving on the bed, switching positions and had my legs and bum jiggled by Sam. The pushing phase I was able to feel the contractions with my own hands on my belly and breathe and push accordingly. I was so calm and relaxed, and he came out without any issues."

"I managed to get two towels rolled up to put under me to make room for my tail bone. Our beautiful baby girl was pushed out in 36 minutes, coming in at 3.6kg and 54cm long and I had no tearing."

"... our baby arrived in the car at the hospital entrance 7.40am! I only started labour a bit before 4am.. a total of no more than 4hours, still can't believe how quick it all happened... Women need to hear / share more positive stories so that future mums don't have to fear this journey."
