Frequently Asked Questions

Hypnobirthing is not a bunch of hocus pocus! Hypnobirthing is a full birth preparation course similar to an antenatal class however we go much further and teach you tools and techniques to keep you calm, confident and in control of your labour. Hypnobirthing can help you to have potentially a quicker, more comfortable and positive experience.

100% yes! Hypnobirthing is for all births from c sections to home births to everything in between.

Practice makes perfect in the case of Hypnobirthing. We recommend you start a course between 20-30 weeks pregnant.  This doesn't mean you cant't start later it just means you wont get quite the same amount of time to practice.

Yes of course. We recommend birth partners do join the course too as it will help them support you in labour. Don't worry if your birth partner is a bit skeptical about Hypnobirthing. My husband was too but after the first session he was amazed by it all and really enjoyed it. 

I can't promise you a pain free birth. However I can promise you a birth that is more comfortable when you use the tools and techniques learnt in the course.

Yes Absolutely! I actually had a c section and still used all my tools I learnt on the course. I cover this type of delivery in my main course however if you want more detail on it or you are having an elective c section then I have a course exactly for that with lots of resources to share with you.

A £50 deposit is required to hold your dates. The balance must then be paid 1 week before the course starts. 

I mostly cover Edinburgh however I can cover many more places via Zoom. I also have premises in Edinburgh for face to face courses.
