Michelle & Aaran -

Just wanted to let you know we had our beautiful baby boy last Saturday
the 19/1/2013 @ 8:40am. He was born 3.85kgs and 52 cms long, naturally
with no pain relief or interventions and I was very happy with my labour!
My contractions started spontaneously on the 18th of January at around
7:30pm with minor backache, I took some panadol and put on my Mindful
Mama CD and relaxed to try and get some sleep. At around midnight my
contractions were getting stronger and more intense and I had to start
breathing through each wave. Being able to actively slow down my
breathing, using the count back from 5 technique, having Aaran talk to me
about my favourite place during each wave really allowed me to get my
head in the zone. I stayed relaxed through each contraction really
visualising my body softening and opening allowing my son to be born. I
didn’t end up with the waterbirth I had intended, due to the complication
with my daughters birth but in the end I didn’t mind. I ended up spending
most of my labour leaning over a fitball in the shower. I was active
during my labour, changing positions and using gravity to help move him
down. Thank you so much. The Mindful Mama course really helped me to
achieve everything I wanted from my birthing experience and helped me
bring my son into the world calmly and naturally. He is such a happy,
settled little man and a much loved addition to our family.

“I came in with a very sceptical husband who was telling his mates on Saturday night how fantastic the course was and giving tips to those who are going to be Dads later in the year.
We also learned so many simple things that we wouldn’t have even thought about before like the fact that I find it so much easier to relax when Mike is touching me.”

“I would just like to commend you on designing and running such a really fantastic course! It really has empowered both of us,to the point where most of our fears about birth have disappeared already. We have always wanted to go down the natural birth route, but felt that there was not enough support & advice out there about how to do it drug and pain free. Your course, although short, covered pretty much all aspects that I felt were missing from our antenatal classes & many more. Vic now feels a lot more confidant, and I actually feel like I have a proper role in the whole event, other that driving her to the hospital & sitting on the rocking chair! “

“I did really enjoy the course yesterday and I am definitely feeling much more positive, I was surprised actually by how much Luke and I talked about the course immediately after and the impact it has had on Luke, We both feel like he is more involved now and that he has got an invaluable role to play!”

“I’m looking forward to my birth experience and left the venue with a smile on my face and a bounce in my stride. This Course should be standard for every pregnant mother and her birth partner.”

“Thanks for a brilliant class. I feel so much more relaxed about the whole thing and as a lovely bonus am now sleeping at night (after practising with the CD). Feel like a different person.”
