"I can not put into words how much I enjoyed our Hypnobirthing classes at Positive Birth Space and how at ease I feel when I think about my birth since finishing them. If you are currently pregnant I seriously suggest you jump on board! You won't regret it."
Maddie
"(We) had our last session with Hannah at Positive Birth Space. She is amazing, we highly recommend! Feeling prepared and so excited for our birth experience."
Bridget
"We would never have done so well in labour and birth if it weren't for the education and support we got. Couldn't be more grateful."
Maddie
"36 and a half weeks into our pregnancy journey and Hypnobirthing Australia has hands down been the best decision we have made. We were lucky enough to do our course online and in person with Hannah from Positive Birth Space. I could not recommend her higher, even remotely she managed to make us feel so connected."
Abbey
" I got to use some of the tools last night to advocate for myself and what I want while we had some monitoring. I wasn't perfect in the confidence of my delivery but it was good practice for labour... Honestly I feel so lucky to know what I know. I don't think we would've been as confident with our choice without hypnobirthing. My breathing also kept me calm while I was alone."
Ebony
"The midwife said I was the most calm person in labour for 20 hours (ending in c section) that they have ever seen. I can't imagine how terrible the day would have been. But instead it was a beautiful calm experience with a few hiccups. Can't thank you enough xx"
Annika
"It (TENS machine) was a life saver and I can't imagine having gone through my early labour without it... I had a beautiful, natural water birth and I feel like the TENS machine helped me get there so would happily recommend to anyone."
Nicola
"Can highly recommend this course for any expectant mummas!"
April
"One of the midwives said to me 'how do you sing and dance to Queen while 8cm?' My response - hypnobirthing."
Annika
"We had a pretty bad night last night before bed... Thank goodness for Hannah and our Positive Birth Space classes though, as I was able to get into a comfortable position on our exercise ball, where I listened to my favourite relaxation track as Nigel did light touch massage the whole time to release endorphins (the hormone of pleasure). After about 20 minutes of these calming techniques I felt 10,000 times better both mentally and physically and was able to climb back into bed, go to sleep almost immediately and had the best night sleep I've had all week. I could not be happier that we had this knowledge and these techniques to be able to calm me down and make me feel better and I could not recommend hypnobirthing and Positive Birth Space more for anyone that is currently pregnant or planning/hoping to be in the near future! It was also some really good practice for our labour and how well it worked only eased my mind more for when we do get to our labour and birth."
Maddie
"There's even things that I didn't think about that I could request, that I can ask for as I go into another one (caesarean), calming and relaxation techniques that I can use. I remember certain points of a caesarean I get quite anxious and, even just going into a big surgery like that, you do get anxious whether you've done it one time or five times. As soon as you find out that you're having a caesarean it's like there's a process that happens and everything is kind of out of my control... But you actually realise by doing a course like this that you can take the power back and have control over a lot of the things that are involved in the process... It was also awesome for Cade to know what his role is in a c-section birth too because he can still have a role in there and there's things that he can be doing to help calm me... Hannah is amazing and I would highly recommend reaching out to either her or a hypnobirthing practitioner in your area."
Talissa
"We had such a positive experience delivering her naturally with no medications and hypnobirthing practice definitely helped us prepare for it!"
Alex
“We ended up having another caesarean after 24 hours of labour but we still feel our birth was positive and it was all good vibes in theatre, and of course happy to be all here safe and sound. Also made it from 2:30am when labour started until 8pm with no medicated pain relief just using hypnobirthing and tens machine so I am really proud of our efforts and still had a good experience despite not going to the ideal plan so thank you for everything! ”
Koby
"I feel that they both were so fortunate to have you and your support and your hypnobirthing training. So many people don't invest in their births, birth is physically challenging but it's the mental challenges that defeat many women, they struggle to believe in their body's abilities. They were such a strong team, they kept drawing on what they had learned to pull them back into focus and ground them when things became challenging. People will say how lucky she was to have a natural birth but it wasn't luck, it was preparation, education and the positive support network around her."
Sheridan
Our twins arrived safely on 30/10/22 all with the help of the hypnobubs course! I was able to use gas and air, a peanut ball and relaxation tracks and a happy playlist to get myself in the zone and pushed out two tiny but healthy little girls, 3 minutes apart! I was able to advocate for myself during my labour and Ross was fantastic too, using massage, positive affirmations and words of encouragement to help and support me! It was fantastic! The girls were very early and are currently in NICU but I just wanted to say thank you for your small business and your support in helping us get our precious girls earth-side safely!
Jess
My labour wasn't exactly how we had planned but the breathing techniques I learnt with you definitely helped me get through the ECV. Fred turned but went straight back into his breech when they stopped. I used a lot of what we learned and felt very calm with every step and choice made throughout the day. Thanks Hannah, you're doing great things for a lot of couples in the community who would otherwise have missed out on any kind of face-to-face learning opportunity.
Bonnie
Thanks to your course, I personally felt in control the whole time. He had to be monitored the whole time but I was able to give birth naturally with just a bit of gas and your breathing methods. With the knowledge from your course about birthing positions I was able to speak up about being uncomfortable on my back and move to standing where the lower back pain instantly subsided and I could just focus on birthing our baby boy. I felt very empowered going in with the knowledge we had gained, even when the unexpected happened.
Kristy
I just wanted to say first of all well done on an amazing day today (NW Pregnancy, Birth & Postpartum Expo). I'm sure it would have consumed many hours of your time. It was wonderful and just what the coast needs. The North West Coast are very lucky to have someone like you to educate and support women.
Secondly, I couldn't be more grateful for doing your hypnobirthing course. Eleanor's birth was the most calm, empowering and amazing experience of my life. It is one of the proudest things I have ever done. I have no doubt it wouldn't have been so fast, relaxed and perfect if we didn't do your course and all the practice. I know for Nick he has expressed with all the learning from your course he was confident and knew what to expect where before he felt he had no idea. He said that without all the things he had learnt he could have been shocked and panicked. We are both forever grateful to achieve the planned birth of our little Eleanor.
