For the birth partner

The birth partner is someone who plays a vital role in supporting a woman who is hypnobirthing. Some birth partners can feel overwhelmed during labour, and unsure of what it is they are supposed to do.

This will not be the case as part of a hypnobirthing couple, with a Doula. You will be well practised in your role, well informed to make any decisions on behalf of your partner if needed, and confident that you are protecting your partner by ensuring they feel safe and surrounded by positivity.

You and your Doula are your partner's continuity of care, and simply by being present you will be enabling her to relax and to calmly bring her baby in to the world.
