What are the benefits of Hypnobabies and a Natural Birth?

  • The hypno-mom will use fewer drugs or no drugs, which means less risk of side effects for mother and baby, due to elimination of the Fear/Tension/Pain Syndrome, and using post-hypnotic suggestions.
  • Most hypno-mothers have shorter labors since there is less resistance of the birthing muscles when pain and fear are minimized or eliminated.
  • The birthing woman generally has much more energy throughout first and second stage, due to a total relaxation throughout the birthing process.
  • The birthing environment is much more calm and peaceful when the natural childbirth mother is comfortable.
  • Breech and posterior babies can be turned using hypnosis.
  • Blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature can be lowered and nausea, back and hip pain eliminated with hypnosis during pregnancy and labor.
  • There are fewer interventions for failure to progress and therefore fewer fetal and maternal complications during labor.
  • The deep relaxation in Hypnobabies sessions has also helped many a nervous birth partner to enjoy their partner's pregnancy and childbirth, and the skills that the hypno-couple learns for relaxation and hypnosis will benefit them for the rest of their lives.
  • Our hypno-couples are "deprogrammed" from the usual negativity of childbirth stories and scenarios they've always heard, by way of training in Hypnobabies classes and audio CDs which have positive messages and hypnotic suggestions. This automatically allows for a positive attitude and much more confidence in birthing.
