HypnoBirthing® is taking the world by calm
Jenet Kirby is a Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator.
When a couple chooses HypnoBirthing® they are intending to birth their baby in the calm, peaceful way that most mirrors nature.
There are many advantages to using HypnoBirthing® over traditional childbirth education methods including:
- Eliminates the Fear-Tension-Pain Syndrome before, during and after birthing
- Eliminates or greatly reduces the need for chemical anaesthesia
- Eliminates fatigue during labour, mother has the energy needed to bring her baby into the world
- Postnatal recovery is rapid and easier
- Babies are better adjusted and happier
- The Birthing Companion is an integral part of the birthing, not an onlooker
- Shortens the first stage of labour by several hours
- Eliminates the risk of hyperventilation from "shallow" breathing methods
- Promotes special bonding of mother, baby and birthing companion
The ideal time to start your HypnoBirthing® classes is after 26 weeks and preferably before 34 weeks.
HypnoBirthing® - The Mongan Method
It is as much a philosophy as it is a technique. The concept of HypnoBirthing® is not new, but rather a "rebirth" of the philosophy of birthing as it existed thousands of years ago.
The method teaches you that in the absence of fear and tension, severe pain does not have to be an accompaniment of labour.
You will gain an understanding of how the birthing muscles work in perfect harmony - as they were designed to - when your body is sufficiently relaxed. You will learn how to achieve this kind of relaxation, free of the resistance that fear creates, and you will learn to use your natural birthing instincts for a calm, serene and comfortable birthing.
When you have your baby with HypnoBirthing®
You will not be in a trance or asleep. What you will experience is similar to the daydreaming or focusing that occurs when you are engrossed in a book or a movie or staring into a fire. You will be conversant and in good spirits - totally relaxed, but fully in control.
You will be aware of your body's surges, but because you will have trained yourself to reach complete relaxation, you will be able to determine the degree to which you feel the surges. You will experience birthing in an atmosphere of calm relaxation, free of fear and tension that prevents the muscles of your body from functioning as nature intended them to. In this calm state your body's natural anaesthesia, endorphins, replaces the stress hormones that constrict and cause pain.
Every woman has within her the power to call upon her natural instincts to bring about the best possible birthing for her baby and herself. With HypnoBirthing® - The Mongan Method, you will learn relaxation techniques to eliminate fear, tension and pain so you can achieve birth fulfilment - awake and alert - in a totally relaxed state of mind and body.
