❤ MORE ABOUT ME ❤
Q: How old are you?
A: I am now 30 years-old! Argh!
Q: Tell us about your family?
A: I have a son called, Bill, and I am no longer with his dad, as we split mutually when he was a baby. I never imagined my life as it is now, with children to different partners, but I am so happy it is my life. I met Mark in the summer of 2013, and we became firm friends. We fell in love when I became single and we’ve never looked back. We have a daughter, called Daisy, born April 2016, and I’m due our third baby - a boy - in March 2018!
Q: What is your job?
A: I am a trained journalist and former business magazine editor, I then moved into content creation at an agency in Manchester (where I met Mark!) and since Daisy was born, I am now a full-time KZfaqr. Yes, it sounds weird to me too! I work around the kids and try my best to make it work!
Q: What camera/software/lighting/music do you use to make your videos?
A: I film my videos with the Canon G7X Mark II (I love it!) and I have a Neweer Ring Light. I use iMovie to edit, PicMonkey for thumbnails, and I use Epidemic Sound, BenSound and the KZfaq library for music!

I practiced hypnobirthing throughout my pregnancy and loved it. I was so calm during labour that I didn't get to the hospital until I was 10cm, Lilly was born after 40mins of "breathing her out" with no pain relief . It was amazing and I would recommend it to any expectant mums xx

This is so so helpful. I’m so keen to embrace this this time, because I feel like my three births so far have taken me on a real journey to a point where I felt far more powerful and strong with my third one, but that I still felt quite afraid. Fourth and final time lucky maybe, that I can really channel that this time into a super positive experience. Will definitely be on the search for a book, and those tracks. x

So glad I found this! I had an unassisted home birth with my son 16 months ago (he came so fast I caught him before he could hit the bathroom floor; the midwife missed it but arrived after an hour). It was a good birth in that I never felt afraid, but it hurt like the dickens, I yelled a lot, and had perineal tearing . . . . now that I'm 33 weeks with baby girl, I want a peaceful birth even if it goes fast again! I'm downloading the tracks today and going to listen and practice every night! Thank you! ☺️

Thank you Charlotte. I tried hypnobirthing with my first (I'm on to my second now in 3 weeks) and unfortunately I was induced, just like you were with Bill. Although I have some fond memories of the birth, it is tainted with a feeling of being let down by the midwife that made that decision for me. As it turns out with later investigation, there was no medical reason to be induced and she didn't subscribe to the hypnobirthing mantra, even though I had been to lessons in that very same hospital. She put the fear of god in me, talking about emergency csections and all sorts of medically frightening jargon. To put it bluntly, all of the hardwork I had put into not fearing labour went flying out of the window because of her. After the birth, I thought I could only remember the good, most especially because my daughter Martha was just perfect. So when I went into this second pregnancy I thought I could do this again. I have all the hypnobirthing paraphernalia and a great group of friends and husband who is with me all the way. This time I am doing it my way and for the most part I am determined to make my choices not based on fear from medical jargon,and during the day, this works. But... At night after the affermations and rainbow relaxation CD by Marie mongan has finished and I'm still not asleep (sciatica... That's another story), I'm afraid. I frightened because I don't want to be induced again, because the memories that are now coming back to me are how much my body fought against the drugs, how I was strapped to the bed with monitors and drips and in the end gas and air. And I just don't want this again. To such an extent that I wish I wasn't pregnant and wasn't going to have another baby. So thank you for your video. It is good to know that someone went through exactly the same as me with their first baby and then went on to have a wonderful second birth. It might not happen, hey, but at the core of hypnobirthing is positive thinking so I'm choosing to believe that if it happened to you, then it can happen to me.

Thank you for sharing your experience with hypnobirthing! I am currently halfway thru Katharine's book and I have started to listen to her relaxation tracks. I have to say I too was a little hesitant and questioned how it was possible to give birth whilst in control. She has definitely explained things that I wish I had known for my first delivery 6 years ago, and it makes sense. I am definately a believer now and I am excited to see how it helps me with the delivery of my second little girl in just over 3 months. Hoping it helps eventhough I will be going to the hospital (unfortunately our insurance does not cover a midwife and birthing center :( ). Best of luck with the rest of your pregnancy and delivery of your little boy.

Only just came across this video and I can't believe how similar our stories are. My first boy was also induced at 13d overdue (March 2014) and I hated how controlled and drugged my experience was. I was given the injection without telling me how it will affect me and some midwife told me to start pushing far too early. My second, girl like yours, was born 3 years later (March 2017), also naturally 2 days overdue! I had done some research in hypnobirthing and whilst I didn't get into it fully, I found that the affirmations gave me lots of strength and I was generally calm and in control and absolutely loved it. I still had some gas and air as I laboured so fast it was super painful, but I even felt in control of taking that. I'm now due with our third in March 2019 and will read even more about hypnobirthing and hoping for another positive experience. Thank you for sharing!

When I had my second child (a year later!!), I forgot to re-read the book and listen to the cd but the techniques stayed with me and I had another positive birth, where I felt totally in control and was able to go into my own world and listen to my body - so much so the I demanded to stand (I gave birth standing the first time & wanted to do it again) as I knew I was close, as soon as I did my waters broke and 2 pushes later my daughter was born. I would totally recommend giving it a go.

I thought I could go into my own little world and breath through my labour. Ha! How wrong I was. It hurt more than words and although i went to 10cm without an epidural I ended up in theatre. I'd deffintly look into this with my next pregnancy but I'm not afraid to ask for the drugs either. 😣 I'd say every women is different and I'm extremely jealous of mum like you who seem to do it really well. I hope my second time is more enjoyable x

We did hypnobirthing and even though everything went wrong it helped us to stay calm and in control in the middle of chaos. Little Raphael was born at 33wks weighing 3 and a half lbs. He had a few issues and we had to be induced which caused even bigger issues and we ended up having to have an emergency c-section. Thankfully because we had meditated and learned to stay calm it made the whole process much smoother for us and for Raph... it also helped us afterwards to deal with our 5week stay in the NICU ward.

I was exactly the same. Didn’t believe it. My first child I just had gas and air but it made me feel so sick!! And out of control. So it made everything feel stressful! My 2nd I found hypnobirthing and my gosh what a difference. I managed without pain relief and it felt I had the situation very much under control the midwives were happy to let me progress and step in only when needed to basically! The baby came naturally and healthy at 9lbs15.2 so big boy haha. I healed super quick. I was very lucky and still look back on that magical day. Call me crazy but it was a very enjoyable experience.So I’m not too sure if it was from hypnobirthing or because I was older I knew what to expect.. but yeah we will find out as I am now pregnant with my third! All mummies are amazing no matter how you give birth. Pain relief, c-section, adoption we are all incredible!! Thank you for sharing your story ❤️
