Sophie Knight – Bourne Hypnobirthing

Catherine & Pearce:

We both feel that the KGH hypnobirthing course has had a positive impact on the view of our upcoming birth. I feel like I am much more informed after completing the course compared to how I felt before/after my first birth. We have been given tools to help us regain control/composure if we are given information that may not be expected or outside of what we would like to happen. We have relaxation tools and audio that we are practicing to support the birth that we would like to have and these can also support us if things change or don’t go as planned in order for us to remain as calm as we possibly can. I am more confident that this time round that my husband will feel part of the birth, he will take the role of really supporting my labour and being the first port of call for communication with the midwives, this is something that would not have happened without this course and it is something that we both feel benefits our birth plan. I have already used some of the tools and techniques during midwife appointments and extra scans to help me remain calm and to ask for clarification or time if/when it has been needed.

The course beat our expectations! We hoped to get some information out of the course and to feel like we had a choice within our birth. We got this and so much more out of the course with Sophie.

We would recommend Sophie to anyone. I was a little ‘nervous’ when booking it because doing hypnobirthing one to one, in your own home with someone feels very intimate, however, that is what made this hypnobirthing course even better. Sophie could spend all of the time talking to us, the course could be personalised to us and our wants, needs or expectations because of this. We both felt very relaxed with Sophie and it was lovely to do this within the comfort of our own home. I also know that I can contact Sophie at any point if I have any questions before the birth of our baby.
