Phone (916) 668.9889 to pre-register or email sacramentohypobirthing (at) gmail.com for more information.

It is best to seek enrollment in classes no later than week 24 of your pregnancy. This will allow for adequate time in case you are put on a waiting list, and enough time for practice prior to the birthing of your baby as you finish your classes.

 

Oops. I’m way beyond 24 weeks. Can I still register? Am I able to still do hypnobirthing? 

Absolutely. While starting early gives you plenty of practice and repetition, which the subconscious mind loves, I’ve helped women in week 38 learn the tools to have an amazing birth.  However, earlier learning is better. Practice breeds confidence. 

Through HypnoBirthing® classes you will learn a unique method of childbirth education, which is enhanced by hypnosis, imagery, breathing, and relaxation techniques. This method wonderfully complements traditional health care. The curriculum emphasizes both pregnancy and childbirth.

Each HypnoBirthing® course is taught in a series of five, 2 -2 and1/2 hr classes.

The classes can be private or held in a group of up to five couples.

MY DOULA KNOWS HYPNOBIRTHING. DO  I STILL NEED THIS CLASS?

Great! It is best, but not necessary, to choose a doula familair with hypnobirthing if you want to fully implement the tools you learn in class. Unless your doula is Certified to teach HypnoBirthing, The Mongan Method you are not going to receive the full curriculum for hypnobirthing. There is a big difference between using the tools to have a successful HypnoBirth, and learning how to teach those tools to others so they, too can have a successful hypnobirthing experience. I have a great blog post that covers the pros and cons of hiring a hypnobirthing-trained doula. You can read it here. 

If you need help finding a doula who is familiar with hypnobirthing please ask. We do have a couple of referrals for you. We have a module in class where we discuss picking your birthing team. I’ll share how to choose a doula who is the right fit for you.
