 Expecting a baby is one of the most significant and transformative experiences in life. The preparation process is crucial in shaping how expectant parents approach childbirth. Among the various antenatal classes available, hypnobirthing has gained substantial popularity for its unique and holistic approach to childbirth. Here are several compelling reasons to choose hypnobirthing as your antenatal class.
 Many women choose to use natural pain relief techniques in labour and find that they can easily labour without the need for medicalised pain relief. This post is to help you understand what is available to you, so that you can choose what to use on the day, based on what feels right.
 People may often wonder what the difference is between a hypnobirthing course and antenatal classes. The truth is that they are both similar, in that they prepare expectant couples for labour and birth. A hypnobirthing course is more focused on ensuring that the parents to be are as informed of their choices, so that they can be in control of thier birth journey. We aim to assist the mother to achieve a calm and comfortable birth, and one that is right for her and her baby.
 If you are expecting your first baby this summer and you’re looking for a calm and positive birth experience, then book yourself onto a hypnobirthing course. If you have already given birth before, then the Refresher Course is for you.
The expectant mum and her birth partner will learn practical tips to stay relaxed, focused and positive in late pregnancy, labour and birth and they will come away completely informed about the possible scenarios that may arise during labour; so that they know how to make decisions wisely that are right for both mum and baby.  Birth is a woman’s right and how she chooses to go through her pregnancy and how to give birth should always be in her control. If you're on your first pregnancy, no doubt you have been reading countless books, been getting advice from medical professionals and recommended by family and friends what you should do.
 Maybe this is your first pregnancy and you're scared because you've never been through it. How do you even begin to imagine what it is going to be like? Do you wonder if you'll know what to expect and how you're going to feel during this experience?
Have you been through labour before? Was it not what you expected. Did it not turn our how thought or wanted? Are you looking for a better experience this time? 
Are you a first-time mum? Are you a little apprehensive about what labour is going to be like? Maybe, even a little scared?
If you are anything like I was, you are probably reading books about how your pregnancy is progressing and how you can better prepare yourself for labour and birth. Perhaps you are looking into what antenatal classes are available in your area. There are lots of birth preparation classes out there, from area-to-area your choice can vary. As a hypnobirthing teacher, I want to tell you why I think this is the best and most comprehensive course available to you.  The crux of hypnobirthing is about becoming more mindful about your body and your baby. Look at the journey you have been on so far in your pregnancy. How many amazing things – miracles really – have happened up until this point? It’s mind blowing!
Your body intuitively knows how to grow that little person within you. A tiny human being is developing and growing each day. Whilst you go about your day, nature knows the exact order and process in which to allow your baby to develop. For women who go into labour spontaneously, this happens at the right time – when your body and baby are ready for the next chapter. Your cervix will ripen, soften and open. For nine months, these muscles have remained tightly closed - to keep your baby protected in the uterus. In early labour, they will dilate to make way for your baby to gently make his way down into your pelvis and birth canal.
Each week we like to share a video with you.
This week I want to share this amazing explanation as demonstrated by Liz Chalmers. 
If you are looking to get dad up to speed with all things pregnancy and labour, or you are a birth partner seeking to get better informed about what to expect from pregnancy labour and birth, we have four books that we recommend for you to read:
