Hypnobirthing - the birth of confidence and assertiveness

This was the arrival of our first child.
We wanted to do well; giving our child the best possible start. And what is 'good' if you do not know all the options?
Hypnobirthing has mainly brought us confidence and knowledge. The confidence that we could bring our baby into the world as much as possible according to our wishes.

The plan was to have our baby born in the hospital with our own midwife. However, due to a medical indication, we were handed over to the gynecologist shortly before the due date. It would be an induced birth through the rupture of the membranes. This was an unexpected change in our plans. We discussed the options by telephone together with course teacher Esther, and peace returned. A birth that was as natural as possible was still possible.
We discussed our birth plan with both the gynecologist and the hospital obstetrician, so they were able to act according to our wishes as much as possible.

The visualizations and coaching words of the Hypnobirthing worked well. After the birth, the nurse said she rarely saw such a well-cooperating team of parents. She almost felt like an intruder in the birthing process when she entered the room. We also felt like a close-knit team; we did this birth together.

We are very happy with our baby, he is so welcome.
