You are NOT Setting Yourself Up for Disapointment

Some people may say, be careful, you can’t plan these things, so don’t set yourself up for disappointment.
This could not be further from the truth. Do we know how your birth will play out? No. Does that mean you can’t dream big? No.

Like you have seen in my posts before, HypnoBirthing is not just one type of birth. It is for every woman to feel calm, confident and equipped with tools to help them navigate through labor and birth...whatever turn their birthing may take.

Not preparing for the biggest event in your life is like saying…

I probably won’t get the promotion so I won’t even try.

I won’t run that race because it will probably be hard and I won’t finish.

I am not going to write that book I have always wanted to because what if no one likes it.

While we don’t know if you will be able to achieve the unmedicated birth you have dreamed about. Or if you will need to choose some interventions you swore you never would. Or need to have a cesarean birth. That does not mean you can’t dream big!

I do my best to help moms visualize the best birth scenario possible while also balancing it out with the realities that they may also come across.

I promise you, you will feel way better about whatever outcome happens, the more prepared you are. And guess what, you may also achieve the birth of your dreams.
