A review for The Bump to Baby Chapter Course; Holly’s Birth
Holly purchased the course whilst she was expecting baby number four. Holly had an empowering birth and sent us this lovely review for The Bump to Baby Chapter Course.
I had 3 previous labours where I laid on my back. I just didn’t really know anything about labour even though I had been through it before. The three previous labours were very long and awful experiences.
Expecting Baby Number Four
This fourth pregnancy I was very anxious about giving birth from the moment I found out. Then I came across your course and I learnt so much! It helped me felt in control. I made a birth plan and even though in the end I was induced my birth plan still got followed perfectly. I managed to have a water birth with just gas and air!! Literally still to this day I can’t believe I did it!
I feel like I hadn’t been through birth yet as it was so different to my other three births. It was a lot quicker too only being 5 hours. I was upright and forward, swaying my hips through every contraction. The midwives were shocked at how perfectly he came out. My partner later said that he started off in a bit of a awkward position.
Baby’s Arrival
I’m just so happy with my birth and have recommended you and your course to so many other women now. I didn’t even tear!! That was a big fear of mine. Also after three labours where I have gone to hospital in extreme pain to find out I’m only 1cm, this time I had raspberry leaf tea and dates from 34 weeks. On arriving at the hospital I was contracting and 3cm with no pain!!
Thankyou for your course and the fact it is affordable to anyone. Birth is one of the hardest things we can go through and your course proved to me that it doesn’t have to be long and traumatic. It’s about learning before it happens and it really does change your experience. I also think a better birth helps you bond with your child more after.
Feeling Empowered thanks to The Bump to Baby Chapter
My partner recorded the whole thing on 2 Go-Pro cameras. One above the water and one under the water and it is such a amazing video! The whole family watched and cried; it is so special. After I gave birth I just cried and kept repeating “I done it” about 30 times. Never in a million years did I think I could do it.
I am so proud of myself and I 100% put it down to your hypnobirthing course.
