Nobody warned you birth could be so conflicting...........
I see you mama. You want to give birth naturally but are struggling to convince yourself (& others) that it is possible, especially if this is your first baby or you have had a previous birth that didn't go to plan. Birth is such a normal natural thing, so why are so many of your friends birth stories full of complications & medical interventions? Why, when you talk about your dream birth, do people think you are naive, tell you to be realistic & act like it is some wild fantasy?
​
You feel in your heart that birth is something powerful & transformative that you were born to do but every interaction makes you doubt yourself.
I see you because I was you. When I was expecting my first baby 9 years ago, I knew I was capable & I wanted to birth my baby naturally. I loved the idea of a homebirth but this made everyone I spoke to nervous.
​
What if something went wrong? Your body has never given birth before...homebirth is too risky. It would be much safer in the hospital.
​
The fears of others made me nervous. They made me doubt myself, question my intuition and believe that birth was not safe. The fears I inherited ultimately derailed the birth of my first baby. I got scared and I gave away my power to a system that I believed knew birth better than my own body.
​
It is perfectly natural to experience fear and worry when you are stepping into the unknown and the stakes are so high. But that fear doesn't have to define your birth story.
​
When you begin to unpick your fears around birth, you will probably find that many of those fears are not your own. In fact, you have been culturally conditioned into many of them. But the good news is we can re-wire that programming and prepare for birth in a way that reduces that fear.

​
When you begin to understand birth, you can start to believe that birth is safe. You will learn to trust in your body and find ways to work with your biology.
The closer you move towards trust and self-belief, the further you move from fear, allowing you to be confident, to take ownership of your birth and to birth in your power.
Are you ready to learn all about the beauty of birth and the many ways that your body is perfectly designed for the process?
​
Do you want to know how best to support your body's innate ability to birth your baby so that you can experience birth in its fullness?
​
Do you want to release fear and birth in full trust?
Safety is everything to birth...
For the mechanisms of birth to work according to your body's perfect design, you need to feel safe. It is in safety that the hormones of birth are free to flow, and the muscles can relax into the role... . Feelings of safety come from both the mind (your thoughts and beliefs) and from the body (based on cues from the environment).
Hypnobirthing uses self-hypnosis techniques to re-wire your mind to trust that birth is safe, releasing old and unhelpful fears and replacing them with more positive beliefs.
It teaches tools and techniques that support your body to feel safe, by creating anchors and to relax into the process of birth, allowing for a more comfortable birthing experience.
It provides an in-depth understanding of the physiology of birth, because when you understand how birth works you know how to support your innate biology.
And it helps you to better understand the maternity system including your rights & choices so that you can make empowered and informed decisions about your birth.
Hypnobirthing with Connected Mother & Baby isn't about escaping the challenges of birth; it is about preparing for birth in a way that allows you to feel ready to embrace the experience in all its fullness.
Why choose Hypnobirthing with Connected Mother & Baby:
I am Zara, founder of Connected Mother & Baby. I have two children and had two very different birth experiences. Ignoring my intuition and planning to go with the flow with my first baby left me vulnerable and ultimately led to unnecessary medical interventions and feelings of disappointment & disempowerment. For the birth of my second son I took back my power, embodied the experience and had a truly transformative birth that left me in no doubt of my strength and capability. It is these contrasting experiences that led me into birth work. You can read my birth story here:

​
I know that with the right mindset, knowledge, and support, birth can be a beautifully profound and sacred rite of passage, perfectly designed to reveal to you your limitless potential.

Your birth belongs to you. Are you ready to claim it as yours?
