Birth Partners have a role too

Still on the subject of BIRTH PARTNERS, here is mine!!! And boy did he save my bacon when I was in labour with Jazmine. Second babies come quick. I always knew that but......if we hadn’t done hypnobirthing I honestly don’t know how I would have coped and more importantly he knew it. Let me add he had no interest in ever doing it, thought it was a load of nonsense but he understands it now having gone through it twice and is my biggest supporter as I teach these incredible tools and techniques to other couples 🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For much of the time your birth partner will simply be with you to offer drinks, snacks, words of support, a hug etc. By being in tune with you while you’re in labour he/she will become aware if your manner and disposition changes. This is usually a sign that you are having an adrenaline blip or are entering SELF DOUBT phase. Now their role is more important that EVER!!!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you have done hypnobirthing with me you will know I always mention how important it is to wee in labour. Another good reason is that you can get rid of Adrenalin through urine. Therefore it is a good idea to allow a short time for Adrenalin to decrease and endorphins and oxytocin to increase, before suggesting that you go for a wee. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Remember, you CANNOT birth your baby without OXYTOCIN. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Another key tool for the birth partners is to use their BRAIN. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Want to know more.....sign up to Hypnobirthing & Me today.
