Yeah, it sounds kinda weird.
No, we don’t hypnotize babies.
Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis is a highly sought-after and successful complete childbirth education program that also teaches real, deal medical-grade hypnosis techniques, imagery, and visualization to re-train the inner mind in a positive way to help lessen and, in many cases, eliminate, discomfort and fear from the birthing experience. As a result, Hypnobabies has become well-known for helping women experience a more positive and peaceful pregnancy and easier, more comfortable labors.
Hypnobabies teaches students the same self-hypnosis techniques that people employ when preparing for surgery without any drugs, called hypno-anesthesia. Expectant mothers use our Hypnobabies Workbook, audio tracks and hypnosis scripts to re-train their subconscious minds that contractions in labor will be perceived by their body as pressure or a squeezing-type sensations, and/or pushing, pulling and normal baby movement sensations. This allows our Hypno-Moms to enjoy “eyes-open childbirth hypnosis” which means they can easily remain deeply in hypnosis while comfortably walking, talking and changing positions; being as mobile as they would like to be during childbirth.
Our Hypno-moms are also fully in tune with their babies during the birthing process, and as aware of everything around them as they’d like to be, easily able to communicate with their support team, and completely in charge of their own birth experience.
Our classes also teach Hypnobabies Birth Partners how to fully support the Hypno-Moms, and while a willing Birth Partner is a bonus, Hypnobabies is also used very successfully by single mothers.
Overall, Hypno-moms generally experience a more peaceful, comfortable and relaxing pregnancy, a calm and confident Birth Partner, and an easier, shorter, and oftentimes, pain free “natural” birthing.
Hypnobabies in action
Yes, this is absolutely possible for moms who learn, practice, and use their Hypnobabies as directed.
How do I know?
I had not one, but TWO easy, calm and comfortable births
with the help of Hypnobabies.
“Hypnobabies completely changed my fear based mentality of birth. Using techniques taught in this class completely helped to relieve my anxiety while pregnant and approach birth with a clear, positive, well informed mindset. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is expecting, 1st baby or 10th baby it helps! I am a neonatal ICU nurse and have had 2 successful hypnobabies in the comfort of my home (something I would never have done or even considered at the beginning of my first pregnancy). No may where you choose to birth, home hospital, birth center, hypnobabies is worth looking into.”
