"I Look Back and Can't Believe How Calm I Stayed"
"Hello! I just wanted to let you know that our little boy arrived safely on Tuesday morning at 6.41, 8lb5 and he is absolutely thriving and so unbelievably chilled! I was induced on Sunday with a 24hr pessary and they thought I may need further pessaries but they examined me the next day and I was dilated enough for them to break my waters! They took me down to delivery and broke them at around 11pm and the contractions intensified almost immediately! At this point I thought I would need an epidural but had diamorphe and just rolled on my birthing ball calmly with a good playlist on and by 2.30am I was fully dilated! I ended up needing the ventouse suction but I look back now and can’t believe how calm I stayed throughout the whole thing, no panic, no tears, no shouting just breathing and focusing! And I think all that may be what’s contributing to “A’s” complete relaxation! He is an absolute dream and I do put it all down to you!! Thank you so much for everything! I must admit I didn’t practice as much as I should have done but everything we discussed stayed with me! Xxx” - Francis

It's a great introduction if you are not sure what KG hypnobirthing is or have perhaps never even heard of it before or you are perhaps feeling a little apprehensive about investing in the full course.

Why KG Hypnobirthing?
Hypnobirthing is a technique which helps prepare women emotionally, physically and mentally for pregnancy and birth.
KG Hypnobirthing is a complete, in-depth, antenatal and relaxation programme providing you with the tools and knowledge for a relaxed, empowered and informed birth, wherever and however that may be. It is logical, simple, practical…. and VERY EFFECTIVE!
It enables you to work with your body and gives you the confidence to trust that your body is completely capable of giving birth as that is what it is designed to do!
KG Hypnobirthing puts YOU in charge so your baby can be born calm and alert as nature intended, able to bond with you quickly and settle into healthy sleeping and feeding patterns.
​
Too often we have been programmed throughout our lives with a negative pre-conception of pain in childbirth from books, media, films and even the stories of the people around us. This proven method is all about dispelling these negative mis-conceptions, releasing any fear and changing the way you think and feel about birth into positivity and even excitement to give your baby the best possible start in life!

The course covers everything from the impact of adrenaline and anxiety during birth (and more importantly, how to avoid it) and how the mind and body can work to a woman’s advantage to achieve a calm and sometimes even pain free birth.
We discuss the different variations a birth can take and how you can stay in control of any decisions that need to be made empowering you for a positive birthing experience.
​
We talk about the vital role of birth partners, including how they can best support the birthing person using relaxation and the hypnobirthing techniques as well as the questions to ask should the need arise and how to advocate your wishes.
​
Techniques can be used wherever and however you are planning to birth your baby and will always make a difference to your experience.
