Hypnobirthing FAQ's

Is Hypnobirthing for me? Are you pregnant? Then yes! My Hypnobirthing course is suitable for every type of birth and every body. Whether you’re having one baby or three, a caesarean section or a home birth you will learn techniques and skills to give you a better birth. Why should I pay for this course rather than an online one? Many of the of the cheaper online courses are on-demand or pre-recorded. This essentially means you’re just watching tele. It’s not very interactive and so your attention is more likely to wander! It also means (I know coz this was me!!) that you’re more likely to skip the bits you’re not so interested in! When paying for a full interactive course, you’re getting a real person teaching you, keeping you engaged. You can ask questions, you get better follow up support and you’re more likely to make friends too! What’s the difference between NCT & Hypnobirthing. NCT is a parenting course, it focusses more on teaching you practical parenting skills such as changing nappies etc, with just a section of the course focussing on birth. Hypnobirthing is all about the birth, we cover a little pregnancy related stuff and I set you up to have a positive fourth trimester but you’ll be learning lots of really interesting, useful new stuff about your body, your hormones as well as skills that you can take with you through the rest of your parenting journey, not just how to care for a newborn. When should I do a Hypnobirthing course? You should try and aim to do a course around 30 weeks, this way you’re close enough to the end of your pregnancy that you won’t forget everything but it’s not too late that there’s a chance baby arrives before you finish the course!! However it’s never too early or late to start, any birth prep is better than none! Should my partner come to the Hypnobirthing classes? Yes birth partners are strongly encouraged to come along so that they can find out about how important their role is. If you can't convince them, try and get them to come along to one of my tasters. Don't worry if thy aren't around, it just means you'll have to take extra notes! How much does it cost? The course costs £275 for a face to face group course, £200 for an online course or £395 for a 1:1 course. ​ You can find all my pricing info here How long is the Hypnobirthing course? The course is around 12 hours long. Sessions will either be split in to 4x three hour sessions (usually an evening) or 2x six hour sessions (usually on a weekend) either online or in a venue in the Amesbury/Salisbury area. ​ Sessions are usually decided by the first person who contacts me! ​ What do I get with a Wild Embers Hypnobirthing course? As if a fully interactive comprehensive antenatal education isn't enough, you’ll get FREE access to The Birth Uprising Digital Pack (12 hours of on-demand birth education worth £45!!), access to the Wild Embers Hypno Hub which is jam packed full of MP3's templates, cheat sheets and loads more, as well as a goody bag containing your Wild Embers x The Birth Uprising workbook, a pack of Wild Embers Affirmation Cards and a selection of freebies for you and baby. The goody bag includes some treats for you, your baby and some handy items for your birth bag.

I can’t make the dates you’ve got advertised, what are my options? Please get in touch with me, I may be able to rearrange dates slightly to suit you or to bring another course forwards. Alternatively, you’re welcome to book a 1:1 private course or a Hypnobirthing Essentials course Can I use Hypnobirthing with a different birth? The skills you learn in Hypnobirthing can be used for every type of birth, even if you choose an elective caesarean section, book in for an induction or plan a homebirth! ​ You will also learn skills you can transfer in to the fourth trimester and onwards throughout your parenting journey Do I have to do Hypnobirthing in a group? Nope, if you’re more of a private person I’d be more than happy to offer you a private course. These can be done either online or at my home or yours.
