Birth Storieslocationscontact meI wanted to say a HUGE thank you. I came to one of your sessions last year (I think around March) from North London with my husband Laurie, recommended by a friend. Anyway, after being absolutely petrified and really very frightened about labour before your course I ended up having the most amazingly quick and (relatively) painless labour!! I gave birth a day early to a beautiful little girl. I managed to get to UCH fully dilated (I didn't know I was until the next day) - I made my first call at 1.10am in the morning to my sister and gave birth at UCH (just) at 2.43am!! The whole experience was truly and unbelievably pain free. One of the nurses came into the room the next day at the start of her shift to meet me - she wanted to know if I was the 'fully' (as in dilated!!) and asked me if I had done anything to prepare - I said hypnobirthing with you, she then said she thought so - she was actually a teacher and thought that I must have done hypnobirthing as from her 25 years as a midwife the labours that go the best are always via hypnobirthing!

I thought I'd let you know that I had a little girl 7 weeks ago, and had a very 'easy' labour - 7 hours long, no pain relief apart from a TENS machine, I listened to all 3 recordings all throughout and the breathing techniques helped enormously. It definitely wasn't pain free, but I think that the main benefit of hypnobirthing for me was that I didn't panic at any point, and felt very relaxed the whole way through. I was extremely lucky though as it was totally straightforward with no complications.I thought I would let you know as you mentioned you'd like to hear how it went!Hope you are very well, and I would definitely recommend your services to anyone else.With very best wishes,Anne (London)Hi KristinJust to let you know that our beautiful son was born on Tuesday afternoon. As we had managed to convince the hospital to give us the normal amount of time before an induction, the whole process happened naturally. First contractions woke me up at 2.30am but I put the MP3s back on and managed to doze intermittently until 6am. My waters broke at 8am but, annoyingly, the contractions stopped! Due to the polyhydramnois, I had been told to go straight to hospital as soon as my waters had broken so we
