Calm and Confident Birthing
Welcome to Calm and Confident Birthing. We believe that with the right information and techniques, you can have the empowering birth you deserve.
Do you want to feel confident and look forward to your birth?
Join the birthing movement that is increasing mothers birth satisfaction, reducing birth pain, reducing medical intervention, shortening labour length and lowering fear of childbirth (Buran & Aksu, 2022).
Birth is one of the most important events in yours and your baby's life.
That's why we at Calm and Confident Birthing believe that all women should have the tools and techniques to be empowered through birth.
During our course we explore the magic of the birthing body, your birth options and how to have the confidence to make decisions. You will learn techniques and relaxations to help you to connect to your inner birth warrior.
Birth can be beautiful, powerful and inspiring, in whichever form it takes.
We can help you whether you plan to have a natural, drug free birth or a caesarean in hospital.
We welcome all.
What is hypnobirthing?
Hypnobirthing teaches women to trust their bodies and this confidence has a wonderful effect on the birth process.
It releases fear of birth for the mother and their birth partner. It is not stage hypnosis.
Hypnobirthing is a wide range of knowledge, techniques and relaxation.
We teach KG Hypnobirthing which is an in depth evidence based hypnobirthing course providing pregnant women and their birth partners with information about pregnancy, birth and beyond.
Our current society has a culture of negativity and fear surrounding birth. Hypnobirthing aims to change this.
Why hypnobirthing?
EVIDENCE SUGGESTS THAT IT REDUCES
- fear of birth
- pain
- intervention
- birth length
- rate of c-sections
OTHER REASONS
- increases birth satisfaction
- some babies have a better Apgar score (which assess a newborn's skin color, pulse rate, reflex irritability, muscle tone, and breathing)
- partners have a more integral role
- relaxation during pregnancy
- feeling more in control
My story
In May 2023 I gave birth to my wonderful son Rory. I had a natural and unmedicated birth and truly was calm and confident.
I would like to say it was down to just my willpower (ha!), but honestly, it was due to my hypnobirthing and birth preparation.
My birth wasn't easy but it was the most powerful and magical experience of my life.
My passion about my experience led me to train as a hypnobirthing teacher whilst still in my maternity leave.
I plan to share far and wide the tools and techniques I used.
I will never forget the strength I felt during my birth and this strength has not left me yet.
My hope is to share this with you.
