The Hypnobirthing Australia program is uniquely designed to encourage a positive birth experience. It does not focus on having a "natural" birth, but gives you knowledge and tools to calmy meet whatever turn your birthing takes. It will educate you about  childbirth, the options you have available for your birth, tools to help you manage and navigate all the sensations of birth and practical ways your birthing partner can help you throughout the entire process.

OK so your pregnant and on maternity leave....the audio chosen is just a bit of light humour to get you through, ha ha. 🤣😅 Remember to not get too bogged down in those final days and weeks trying to get the baby to come. Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot you can do about it. So settle in and *try* to embrace the wait.

Surrender.... always been my personal word for all 3 of my births. Release and let go. The sensations of labour can be intense. But they are physiologically functional. Your body is not being harmed from something happening to you, you are birthing and your body is working to bring your baby to you.

The tools in the Hypnobirthing Australia Positive Birth Program help your mind switch off. Help you release and let go and let your body do what it needs to do to bring your baby earthside.

"Since the subconscious mind is our driving force, we always do what our subconscious believes. Since it will believe anything it is told, we can reprogram it if we bypass the conscious mind and substitute new, constructive ideas for its existing negative ones." - The Art of Hypnosis

Hypnosis is actually quite a small part of hypnobirthing and is unfortunately often flopped off as a bit woo woo. Essentially, Hypnosis is just a state of consciousness that brings down that barrier between your conscious and subconscious mind. When we plant new ideas into the subconscious in this relaxed state we can start to rewire our belief systems. Doing some prepwork in the months leading up to birth by doing the affirmations and meditations provided in the program, can reprogram your brain to remove negative thoughts around childbirth that have bee put there by movies, stories you've heard and conversations you've had, and replace them with positive thoughts and a sense of calm and confidence.

Ah I can't get enough of this photos for so many reasons. Just spectacular!

Now, look at all that Vernix!!!! This white, cream like substance on newborn babies is the stuff of magic.

Vernix helps protect the skin while they are in the womb environment and surrounded by amniotic fluid. Also thought that swallowing vernix that if floating in the amniotic fluid helps mature the babies gut. While being born, Vernix can act as a natural lubricant to help baby down the birth path. Vernix is high in antioxidants and is naturally antimicrobial so helps keep baby safe from microbs and oxidative stress while being born. Once born it helps babies skin mature ready for its new life in air and is incredibly moisturising. It is also thought to help with temperature regulation and stop excessive water loss. It really is a miracle substance that the beauty industry would love to be able to replicate.

My advice definitely don't rub it off! Wait a few days to a week to bath baby and the vernix that inevitably ends up on you RUB.IT.IN like the most expensive syrum you own.

Amazing video. Speaks for itself really.

The parallels between making babies and birthing babies are very close. Women who fail to feel safe and loved, who fail to reach a point of neocortical inhib...
