Episode 12 - Let’s Talk About Pain
The episode talks about why pain is such a bad word, why we should ignore those people who tell us how ‘painful’ labour is and how hypnobirthing can help to reduce pain during labour. I also talk about some of the pain relief options that are available to you because hypnobirthing is not anti pain relief AT ALL.🌸 Resources & Links🤰 Doula Packages – Discover how I can support you throughout pregnancy and birth: The Nurture Nest Doula Services🎓 Hypnobirthing Courses – Learn tools and techniques to feel calm and confident: Explore Courses☕ Say Thanks – If this podcast has helped you, you can buy me a coffee here📚 Claire’s Book Recommendations – My favourite reads for pregnancy and birth: Amazon Book List📖 The Little Book of Positive Birth Stories – Celebrate inspiring birth stories: Get Your Copy Here🎬 Birth Time Documentary – Get 20% off with code CICADA20: Watch Here📸 Instagram – Daily tips, birth stories & inspiration: @the_nurture_nest🛁 Birth Pool Discount – Get 10% off here: Claim Offer⚡ BabyCare TENS Discount – 10% off with code 10NURTURENEST: Shop Here Hosted on Acast.

Episode 7 - Interview with a Birth Partner
In this week's episode, I sit down to interview a previous client of mine, Jim, who has been a birth partner for the birth of both of his children. He gives two different perspectives on being a birth partner, one where he felt helpless and quite scared and the second after they had done hypnobirthing, where he felt like he had a real role to play and ended up having an amazing experience. This episode really shows how hypnobirthing is for birth partners too.T🌸 Resources & Links🤰 Doula Packages – Discover how I can support you throughout pregnancy and birth: The Nurture Nest Doula Services🎓 Hypnobirthing Courses – Learn tools and techniques to feel calm and confident: Explore Courses☕ Say Thanks – If this podcast has helped you, you can buy me a coffee here📚 Claire’s Book Recommendations – My favourite reads for pregnancy and birth: Amazon Book List📖 The Little Book of Positive Birth Stories – Celebrate inspiring birth stories: Get Your Copy Here🎬 Birth Time Documentary – Get 20% off with code CICADA20: Watch Here📸 Instagram – Daily tips, birth stories & inspiration: @the_nurture_nest🛁 Birth Pool Discount – Get 10% off here: Claim Offer⚡ BabyCare TENS Discount – 10% off with code 10NURTURENEST: Shop Here Hosted on Acast.
