When is the best time to start learning HypnoBirthing ?

There’s not a straight rule about the ‘best time’ for learning hypnobirthing, as it all depends on your own personal circumstances and preferences.

However, somewhere between 20-34 weeks is ideal, as the success of the course is strongly linked to how much practice you do.
Your birth companion should also attend all classes as he/she is a very important part of Hypnobirthing achievement as it helps build a strong relationship with the child and yourself before, during and after birth.

" Labour does not have to be hard or unpleasant.
It can beautiful, calm and enjoyable
If we change the way we view birth,
The way you give birth will change’’

Marie Mongan
