Hypnobirthing gave Jo the skills to do it again!

Jo's story:
Holding my new born baby girl 5.5 years after giving birth to my son was a feeling I will never forget! I had done it….. and I had survived and my baby was well! I was home that evening to see my son and be a family of four straight away.
After my severely traumatic birth with my son, it was not even an option to try and do it all over again….. it was just too impossible and my mental and physical health battled through the toughest of times.
But when my son was 3, I felt a lot better and we decided we wanted to try again. We lost two babies in the space of 6 months and the battle in my head began beating me again. It just wasn’t meant to be. But something inside wasn’t ready to give up.
After medication and help we finally had a successful pregnancy but now I had to find a way to get this baby out of me but my only experience had been incredibly distressing.
I felt alone as I watched mothers of 2,3,4 all around me…. How did they all do it again? But everyone’s story is different and unique!
I turned to hypnobirthing to help calm my nerves and to meet others whose birthing stories were hard and they also needed some guidance and help to do it all again. I wasn’t alone at all.
I wasn’t sure if C section or natural birth was the right way to go but hypnobirthing helped me look at all options and face my fears.
I did it naturally and although it wasn’t prefect, the outcome was beyond perfect…. A baby girl called Posie!
I bounced back days later… the relief and joy healed me.
My journey was rocky and parts of it are hard to talk about but my children are incredible and even in the moments when they are slightly less than incredible ha ha….. I will never take for granted how lucky I am to have them…. They are constantly hugged within an inch of their life
Hypnobirthing gave me strength and confidence, skills to do what I thought was impossible xxx
