Birth Announcement by Maria, Positively Hypnobirthing Mum “It was induced but vaginal and with minimal interventions as we wanted. I also managed to go through the entire process with no anaesthesia at all!”
"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!"
"... 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."
"We’re pleased to announce that our precious little boy was welcomed into the world yesterday. He was 41+2days, 53cm long + 3.8kg of perfection! We had a beautiful water birth without any interventions at GCUH & applied plenty of the strategies we learned through the hypnobirthing course! "
"Hey Kate! We just wanted to let you know Jake and I welcomed our little man on Monday 25th March. We just wanted to thank you - it was a gruelling 60 hour labour with 3 surges every 10 minutes (my body didn’t dilate at the ‘regular’ pace)..."
"I pulled our beautiful baby out and onto my chest from the water at 5.27am. It was truly an incredible experience... People told me there was no way to prepare for what child birth would offer, and that anything I had practiced and learned would quickly go out the window. This could not be further from the truth!"
