How
would you feel if you knew
you
could easily cope with childbirth
with no need for fear and pain?
“Above
all I believe that it's important that women and the partners
who support them
have
a sense of confidence.
With this confidence it becomes easier for you to cope
with and manage the sensations and the process of birth, while
being in a safe and positive relationship with those around
you.”

Childbirth
can be the most wonderful experience ever, but all too often it
is surrounded by thoughts of pain and fear. Wouldn’t
it be fantastic if you could over come those fears and move
towards a birth that was positive from the start. Whether
this is your first baby or you already have children I can help you learn a variety of supportive techniques you
can use in your labour to help you have a more comfortable and
positive birth experience. CONFIDENT CHILDBIRTH
offers a friendly and effective approach to labour and delivery
to help you feel calm and in control before, during and after
the birth of your baby.
|
| WHAT
IS CONFIDENT CHILDBIRTH? |
|
Confident
Childbirth uses a range of highly effective tools: cognitive
hypnotherapy, self-hypnosis, positive visualisation and pain
management techniques so that you (and your partner) can have
the best possible experience of birth.
You can feel thoroughly prepared both mentally and
emotionally so you can look forward to childbirth in a much more
relaxed way.
You'll Learn -
- Self-hypnosis:
how to go into a state of calm relaxation
- Personal
visualisation to aid your labour and delivery
- Relaxation and a range of
pain control techniques
- How to remain positive, in
control and in communication
By
the end of your sessions, you may be surprised just how
empowered you feel.

| WHY
CONFIDENT CHILDBIRTH? |
|
Between
us, we can discover what’s important to you about your
pregnancy, birth and future life as a parent. In just a few
hours of working with me you can be confident and prepared for a
positive experience, letting go of anything which may once have
stood in the way and looking forward to the achievement of
giving birth. This approach is flexible, positive and
straightforward (sometimes its so simple that you may be
surprised that you didn’t think of it yourself).
Confident Childbirth techniques can be used wherever you need
them and once you've learned these skills, they can be used time
and again in all sorts of situations. This differs from
Hypnobirthing® because it is not run as group classes but individually
tailored to meet your needs and wishes, rather than having a
one size fits all approach. The short course is planned
over four sessions, if there are extra issues to work on such as
-
- Needle
phobia, or any phobias or fears relating to medical staff or
the hospital environment
- Letting
go of past issues or unwanted behaviors
- Anxiety
and stress or relationship issues
You
can always call or email to book extra sessions or discuss these
with me.

| THE
BENEFITS OF CONFIDENT CHILDBIRTH |
|
|
Being Cognitive Hypnotherapists we are trained
and experienced in approaching you as an individual.
We know how to work in partnership with you to
draw out your inner skills and strengths to assist you in
confident labour and delivery.
It also means that we have the flexibility to meet your
precise needs so that we can notice what's going on with you and
deal with it there and then.
If you are motivated to develop yourself in order to make the
most of the birth experience, you will find that you benefit
surprisingly quickly.
You'll
get the most out of working in this way if you are curious about
how you can use your mind to prepare yourself effectively for
childbirth, and willing to practice in between sessions.
|
| BEFORE
THE BIRTH |
|
- Just as your body is naturally
preparing itself physically for the birth, we will be
working together to prepare your mind to cope calmly with
the challenges that childbirth brings
- You
will be taught a range of techniques that you can use
anywhere. You will be encouraged to practice these skills
regularly, so that by the time you need them, this engaging
process is second nature and effortless
|
| DURING
THE LABOUR AND DELIVERY |
|
- Being
positive and calm with a working knowledge of pain control
techniques, you're much less likely to need analgesic
medication
- There
is now growing evidence which has found hypnosis for
childbirth is associated with shorter labour
- Research
also shows that there's a much reduced likelihood of
forceps, ventouse, or Caesarean section-
- You'll
have the ability to communicate with those around you, which
means that as labour progresses you can be actively involved
in any decisions
- We
know that you don’t lose your brain the moment you
conceive, so what we teach you enables you to stay calm and
comfortable so that you can make intelligent choices that
are right for you at any stage in this process
|
| AFTER
YOUR BABY IS BORN |
|
- Research
shows a lower incidence of post-natal depression, shorter
hospital stays and quicker postnatal recovery
- Your
baby is likely to have a higher Apgar score (measurement of
baby's well being immediately post-delivery)
Many mothers report that their babies are calm, feed and
sleep better due to their gentle passage into the world
- Reduced
use of pain medication means reduction of possible
undesirable side effects for mother and baby
- Self-hypnosis
and relaxation aid breast-feeding and restful nights,
allowing you to get on with life
- Your
new tools can help you cope more easily with family life
