  • Thanks for sharing your experience and congratulations on a wonderful birth. I love that my memories of childbirth are so positive and I'm glad yours are, too. Enjoy your son.

  • Hello. A lovely Video!! I myself am pregnant with my first Baby to be born. I am in Uruguay.

    But actually I have a question which is very important for me to know if you would share: 1) In the final phase, did you press or did you continue to relax and your Baby made his own way in his own time? 2) Did you move around/ were standing or in your knees in phase one and two of the labour? Or did you lay on your bed/back? Please do answer me, it is so important to me. Thank you.

  • @karinglaubtanjesus Thank you, and congratulations. In the earlier part of labor I layed on my side in bed. In the tub I was able to sit, but as I got closer to the final stage of labor I moved onto my knees. I never stood. About the pushing, I was never coached on it, but I did push a little. The best way to discribe it is like having a bowel movement - you don't force it out but there is some natural, spontaneous pushing involved. Hope this helps and good luck.

  • I know this is an ignorant question, but I haven't had a child before. I was wondering if you felt any pain at all? Please send me a message, I'm dying to hear from you, I am terrified of childbirth. And in every water birth I've seen the women seemed fine.

  • It wasn't perfectly painless, but it was totally bearable. After three births, I would be more afraid of an epidural and pitocin in the hospital than a home birth (in a low risk pregnancy). If you can take a hypnobirthing class, it might do you some good. Part of the class involves facing any fears of birth you may have. There is a fear-pain connection. I think hypnobirthing worked so well for me because I was able to relax and feel in control.

  • Thank you. I am very lucky to have the family I do. The birthing tub is by Made in Water and is called La Bassine.

  • If you'd like scientific evidence, try this:

    When you are afraid, your body releases hormones in response to the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, right? These hormones cause you muscles to tighten/harden, right? All scientific. When you relax and meditate, you produce hormones that cause muscles to lengthen & soften. You have no fear when meditating. Therefore, the result is that a baby can "slide" out against soft muscles, not hard, resistant fibres which bring on more pain.

  • Looking at your profile, it becomes clearer.. you're 22 y.o and have all the answers. Try to chill on the anger, you're only hurting yourself..( Love, the hippie)

  • Yes,,also brought tears to my eyes..lovely moment!

  • Thank you so much for sharing this. It is absolutely beautiful and brought tears to my eyes! I cant wait for my hypnobirth in January!

  • can you have fist birth in this method when your'e 35? or is it harder?

  • This vid inspired me to have my own hypnobirth and I did it! My beautiful son was born without so much as a panadol and It was all due to the hypno-birthing experience. Thanks for sharing and inspiring so many others. XO

  • Firstly congratulations on a beatiful baby and birth! I am a student midwife in England (approaching the end of my training - yay!) and find it so refreshing to see you embrace the natural approach and be so confident in your body's abilities. Though I have delivered babies in waterbirths, I would love to deliver many during a hypnobirth- they look wonderful! Many congratulations :) :)

  • I'm 20 weeks pregnant with my first baby & just looking around at birth options. I would like to have a home birth & am keen on the idea of hypnobirthing.

    Seen so many videos of women screaming & it really terrifies me.

    I know everyone's body is different & some women have higher pain thresholds but thank you for posting this video; it's made me feel more confident that I'm making the right choice for me. x

  • Hi, Did you use HypnoBirthing, the Mongan Method for your birth?

    THanks in advance.

  • awesome, awesome birth! my favorite part is when your older children come in..just beautiful.. am at this very moment in a training to become a HypnoBirthing instructor and watching your video reminds me just why i want to do this
