My May 2013 Hypnobabies Class is full. I am now taking registration for the next session, which begins July 7 and goes through August 11. Please see http://www.hypnoblissbirth.com/classes/ for additional details.

It really depends; are we talking about hypnobirthing or HypnoBirthing®? Although, many people use the term hypnobirthing to apply to any type of hypnosis used for birth, the terms Hypnobirthing and HypnoBirthing® actually are used by two specific birth hypnosis methods: HypnoBirthing® The Mongan Method and the Leclaire Hypnobirthing Method. Since the techniques taught by Hypnobabies® are quite different from those taught by the two other methods, the term hypnobirthing is not the best one to describe our method. Phrases such as “childbirth hypnosis” or “hypnosis for birth” provide a more accurate description of what we teach.

Hypnobabies® uses real hypno-anesthesia techniques originally developed by Gerald Kein for use in childbirth. These are the same types of techniques used by patients preparing for unmedicated surgery and are much more effective than relaxation alone. Additionally, our classes fully involve the birth partner in learning the hypnosis techniques and our couples get a solid education in nutrition, exercise and health matters – complete childbirth education, leaving them confident and fully prepared for their baby’s birth.

If you are a doctor, midwife, or doula and are attending your first Hypnobabies® birth you may find it different from hypnobirths you have witnessed. The mother will have different cues and will be moving and communicating as she pleases, though deeply in hypnosis and deeply relaxed. If you are pregnant and looking for the right childbirth technique for you, a quick internet search will bring up plenty of information on Hypnobabies® as well as other techniques. Take some time to review the information and ask questions to determine which technique is right for you. You may enjoy reading about the history of Hypnobabies® here.

I came across this great post from Annie, a recent Hypnobabies® mama. I thought it was full of information my readers would enjoy and she was kind enough to let me share it!

Yes! It was Awesome! Wonderful! So peaceful, so relaxed, so beautiful! Absolutely worth all the training I did every day for half a year! Thank you Hypnobabies, I got exactly what I wanted and it was SO GOOD..!

I felt sure and confident all the time. I felt happy, good, peaceful, joyous. I knew I would know exactly what to do at any moment, I knew I wouldn’t have to ask anyone anything, I would just listen to my body and do as I intuitively knew I should do. I felt no worries about anything. I knew I would know if there was anything special I should pay attention to, and there wasn’t.

You have to check out this amazing birth! There is no editing, no removal of sound, just a peaceful, beautiful birth. The mom was very present — easily moving and talking to her other children, just taking one wave at time, completely lucid and in tune with her body for her daughter’s birth.

Check out this awesome video from Sheridan at EnjoyBirth. It really lays out the risks and benefits of inductions. According to studies over 40% of women’s doctors suggest induction, so this is information you need to know! Hypnobabies students you will recognize the language she’s using!
