Our preparation is what got us over the line to have the most amazing birth experience we could have dreamed of.
I went into spontaneous labour at 5pm and had planned to relax….sleep and listen to my hypnobirthing tracks…..but by 5:30 I was already having surges 2 mins apart! Simmo came home from work – but as we were adamant not to go to hospital too early – we tried to chill at home. By 7:30 […]
Hypnobirthing is just amazing & has helped me birth both my babies with two totally different & very unique births
Baby Alfie Born Monday the 9th of November, 2020 At 10:45am 3.354kg 52cm My darling little boy entered the world on Monday morning the 8th of November very quickly…..another little hypnobub like his big brother. On Sunday night at 10pm I went to the toilet & saw that I’d had a show…. I felt baby […]

Overwhelming love swept over me looking down at my baby girl! “OMG it’s a girl”.
Hi Melissa, I’m looking forward to sharing my story with you. Please find my story below. Bub: Norah Jane Martha 29.11.20 3.29pm 4.295kg 54cm I decided to attend the Hypnobirthing Australia course because … Having studied midwifery for a while, I had some knowledge about models of care available. I knew that I was low […]
As we were driving I realised I was in the transition phase of labour and had a lot of pressure. When we were still about 7 minutes from the hospital, I had the urge to push.
Hi Janine (Janine Fowler – Hypnobirthing Australia practitioner), I hope this email finds you well! I just thought I’d let you know I had our baby last Thursday night, and it was a great experience! The hypnobirthing worked so well that I didn’t realise I was in labour and nearly didn’t make it to the […]
I want to say a huge thankyou for your course, it was the reason I was able to do 22 hours of labour with just gas and air
Hi Kasey, Yes, our big beautiful boy Jacob arrived into the world on 6/10/20 after 22 hours of labour. We were able to labour 14 hours at home using hypnobirthing techniques and did the final 8 in the hospital after I hit the end of my tether and felt more comfortable with the idea of […]
I walked over to the other room and instinctively took a kneeling position on the ground…
Hi, My positive birth story. 29/01/2020 Where do you start with a birth story! So many places. A run down on my pregnancy and birth experience would be an overall healthy and positive one, I took a class for hypnobirthing with my partner from around 26 weeks and we both loved every minute of it […]
And all I can say now is, you’ve got this.
Hi Melissa, I did the weekend course in Torquay Victoria at 36wks pregnant and I wanted to share the email I sent to the group after I gave birth (I wrote it at 4am, after birthing at 10.30pm!). I’ve been sharing it because reading all the positive birth stories really helped me when I was […]
My partner was with me every step of the way and was fully prepared for the birth thanks to the hypnobirthing course
Hi, I completed the hypnobirthing course with my partner early in the third trimester of my pregnancy. I practiced the deep relaxation tracks regularly and then on a daily basis in the couple of weeks before my due date. My desire was to have a natural birth with minimal pain relief or medical intervention. At […]
I could feel my body naturally pushing.
Monday morning I woke up, I was 11 days past my estimated delivery day. I had this beautiful birth planned out in my head, natural, calm & in control after practising hypnobirthing this pregnancy, desperate for a better experience this time around. Induction was crossing my mind every day – the hospital I was delivering at […]
My mum said “the baby is coming!” And I said “IT ALREADY DID I FELT IT!” She came out arm first like superman!
On Tuesday the 17th September, the day before my estimated due date i woke up with some lower back and stomach pressure. I was texting my mum whilst still in bed saying “I think it’s nearly time I have never felt this pressure before in my pregnancy!” We laughed as my body had tricked me […]
I have been recommending Hypnobirthing now to everyone
My partner Robbie and I signed up for Vicki Hobb’s hypnobirthing classes in Perth late in my pregnancy, I have diagnosed anxiety and my method of procrastinating and ignoring my worries about labour were no longer working and I needed to do something about it as I was terrified of labour and what was going […]
Our experience was the most wonderful & positive birth.
My partner and I attended your Hypnobirthing class in November last year. I just wanted to let you know that we welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the world on 13.03.2020. I just wanted to share a little bit of our birth story as thanks to your hypnobirthing course and incredible resources, we were able […]
Hypnobirthing helped me stay positive and focused
I attended your course and wanted to let you know that I had my baby boy Alfie at 41+3. I had a very quick active labour and pushing – a total of 3 hours and 15 minutes. I employed hypnobirthing techniques at the start until transition (dim lights, fake candles, aromatherapy, bouncing on the ball, […]
Hypnobirthing was so helpful to relinquish any fear or anxiety I had about giving birth
I’m so delighted to share the news that little baby Liam arrived safely on 11th February. Unfortunately we had to be induced so my dreams of having a nice slow labour starting at home with my hypnobirth techniques didn’t quite occur, but I found loads of uses for them during my labour which was so […]
Once we reached the hospital she was born in less than 15 minutes!
I actually purchased the online course just four days before the delivery of my first daughter. In the short time, I had the course materials I do think they benefited me. I had a very quick labor and almost didn’t make it to my hospital for her arrival. Once we reached the hospital she was […]
Hypnobirthing from a Dad’s perspective – Hypnobirthing should be called ‘Compulsory Birth Preparation’
My wife and I did the online course thing where we watched the videos and then did the practice etc in our own time. I just wanted to write in to say that the hypnobirthing experience we had was amazing. My wife is the only person in our immediate family and close friends who did […]
Where do you start with a birth story! So many places!
My positive birth story. Where do you start with a birth story! So many places. A run down on my pregnancy and birth experience would be an overall healthy and positive one, I took a class for hypnobirthing with my partner from around 26 weeks and we both loved every minute of it learning about […]
I had one of the most empowering and truly amazing experiences of my life!
Madelyn Edith’s birth story I undertook Nikki’s Connected Hypnobirthing course in July. As third time parents my husband Dale and I were amazed by how much we learnt and how we could reframe our previous birth experiences. After the course I downloaded the Hypnobirthing tracks and began to listen to them each night. At first […]
I had the positive birth that I had worked for and wanted!
We commenced our hypnobirthing journey with Jemma Vyas from South East Hypnobirthing in Melbourne providing us with her one-day intense session back in September 2019. Being a midwife myself, I knew the birth I wanted to have, a calm and positive birth. My husband Ted was keen to do childbirth education classes and when we […]
