If you are planning to have a birthing partner then it is important that they attend HypnoBirthing classes with you, if possible. The role of the partner is not to be under estimated. A confident partner can make mum feel safe, secure and nutured, this will help mum release the hormones essential for an easy and comfortable labour. If the birth partner is feeling anxious and does not know how to support mum properly this will introduce stress into the labour and hinder mum.
HypnoBirthing is designed for mum and birth partner to work together before and during the labour to ensure birth is positive and calm. The birth partner will learn;
How to get mum into a deeply relaxed state for labour
How to keep mum relaxed and focused during surges (contractions)
 How to create a peaceful and relaxing environment to help labour progress.
Why it is important to be patient and calm during birth
How to effectively communicate with care givers
How to bond with the baby and make birth a positive experience
More often than not the birth partner is the father of the baby, this is a special experience for the father and should be a wonderful memory. It is an amazing feeling for a couple when they have worked together during labour and brought their baby into the world just how they imagined. The birth partner is of no use when they feel nervous and helpless, but preparation is all it takes to make is a wonderful experience.
‘I felt so much more involved in this birth, I knew what to do and how to support Karen. And I feel so much more bonded with Oliver because the birth was so calm and such a good experience. I actually enjoyed it’ Andrew 2007 |
