Synopsis

THIS BOOK WILL MAKE YOUR BIRTH BETTER. IT IS FOR EVERY WOMAN AND EVERY TYPE OF BIRTH.

AS FEATURED ON DRAGONS' DEN.

'Siobhan manages to completely demystify hypnobirthing, making it accessible and relevant to all women and all births. This book will be a complete game changer and I will be recommending it to mums-to-be from now on' Sarah Turner, author of The Unmumsy Mum

Expert hypnobirthing teacher and founder of The Positive Birth Company Siobhan Miller has made it her mission to change the way women around the world approach and experience birth. Through her teaching she seeks to educate and empower women - and their birth partners - so that they can enjoy amazing and positive birth experiences, however they choose to bring their babies into the world.

In this book, Siobhan debunks common myths about hypnobirthing and explains why she believes it can make every type of birth a better experience - from a water birth at home to an unplanned caesarean in theatre.

So, what is hypnobirthing? Essentially, it's a form of antenatal education, an approach to birth that is both evidence-based and logical. Hypnobirthing certainly doesn't involve being hypnotised; instead, it teaches you how your body works on a muscular and hormonal level when in labour and how you can use various relaxation techniques to ensure you are working with your body (rather than against it), making birth more efficient and comfortable.

Siobhan's advice and guidance will change your mindset and enable you to navigate your birth with practical tools that ensure you feel calm and in control throughout.

By the time you finish this book you'll feel relaxed, capable and genuinely excited about giving birth.

Goodreads review by Michelle on April 12, 2021

There were some really good takeaways from this book, and I particularly liked the science behind the labour. I also enjoyed that it explained different birth types and so even if things don't go to plan, the relaxation techniques can be put to use e.g. staying calm for an unplanned caesarean and ho......more

Goodreads review by Caroline on November 21, 2023

I'm due to have a baby in the next two weeks. This book has some valuable information – breathing techniques, partner-assisted exercises, affirmations, and general birth education that can (hopefully) make for a positive birth experience. However, as promising as the initial birth biology 101 chapte......more

Goodreads review by Chloe on September 17, 2022

It was very informative behind how the body works during labour and birthing your baby which I found useful to know as I’m now aware of what my body will be doing and why! Also amazing what our bodies can do! However, it was a bit too ‘zen’ for my liking, and not portraying a good light on all medic......more

Goodreads review by Jessi on October 18, 2024

I haven’t given birth yet and although I’ve read this book cover to cover I know I’m not done reading it. However, how it has changed my perspective of birth is enough to review it for now. A must read if your fearful of the experience. I’ll update the review after birth! Edit: although ended up not......more

Goodreads review by Julia on April 15, 2022

Really enjoyed the techniques and positivity around labor that I think will be super helpful when the time comes! Didn’t love the negativity around hospital births or trusting medical professionals. As with many things, if you can take the positive bits and ignore the snark, there’s some really grea......more
