Hypnobirthing Australia™

Nothing short of incredible content & such an eye opening experience for knowledge to bring into my own birthing experience. Even My partner was so surprised at the amount of information we picked up & has been so supportive & I know will be able to advocate for me this time around because we both know better! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us

My instructor was lovely and some parts of the course are great. The physiology and breathing and hospital procedures is great. As is the idea to relax as much as possible in each contraction.However the hypnosis tracks didn't do it for me. Like nothing.Also the course isn't very trauma informed IMO. I came into hypnobirthing for my second baby deeply wary after a terrible 1st birth.I feel like hypnobirthing isn't critical enough of hospital policies that leave many women physically and mentally broken. They should include more about consent and informed decision making in education, less about accepting whatever birth brings.

My husband and I recently completed the Hypnobirthing Australia course with Belly2Birth. The course was hugely beneficial in educating us about birth and how to positively prepare for it. As a result, I went into my second birth feeling less anxious and far better equipped and empowered... Better yet, I achieved the physiological birth I was aiming for. I found the wealth of resources and course material incredibly helpful after the course and had the tracks playing throughout my labour. Highly recommend this course to any pregnant woman.

My partner and I completed the hypno course and had the most amazing birthing experience, it was everything we had hoped it to be- beautiful, positive and calm we can’t thank Melissa and Skye enough for their teachings and will be recommending this course to all new mammas

My partner and I will forever be grateful for everything we learnt during our Hypnobirthing course. With a very rapid and unexpected home birth, nothing could have prepared us for delivering our baby like the course did. My partner and I were able to stay calm throughout and we credit that to the course. We would recommend Hypnobirthing to any expecting families. Highly highly recommend!

This course wasn't right for me. While I wanted (and had) an intervention/drug free birth, I didn't find it helpful that the course was so focused on that as the only acceptable option. I found that the course's heavy focus on the risks of interventions really added to my anxiety around birth, especially regarding induction. In my view, it's also quite unethical to charge extra for education on c sections and not cover that in the main course, especially given the cost of the course. A birth course should cover all modes of delivery, and help women to have an empowered experience regardless of their path. Many women simply don't have a choice about some interventions, and risk v benefit is a very individual calculation. The last things pregnant women need is more things to worry about, and more judgment about their choices.I found some of the resources really helpful, but not others. This, I'm sure, is very individual. I hated the tracks, but really liked the massage and positioning techniques. One thing that was excellent was the clear instructions and guidance for partners in supporting birthing mums, and navigating the medical system. This proved invaluable for us.

Highly recommend..our hypnobirthing classes were so informative for both myself and my partner, we feel so much more confident with what tools we are able to use.

I feel so well equipped and calm about my upcoming birth thanks to Hypnobirthing Australia. Zellie was an amazing teacher and really gave all the tools to harness a positive birth experience. I would highly recommend for anyone considering hypnobirthing to jump right in. Best decision I made.
