26/03/2019 by Hypnobirthing Australia

What is the difference between Hypnobubs® and other hypnobirthing programs (such as the Mongan Method)?

We are often asked about the differences between the hypnobubs® hypnobirthing online course and other hypnobirthing courses.

Sometimes I get the ‘eye-roll’ when I mention breathing/bearing down with hypnobirthing, during the ‘pushing’ stage of birth.
