Three Rivers Hypnobabies childbirth education + hypnobirthing at it's finest! Welcome to Three Rivers Hypnobabies!
(2)
I am Tara, a 2x hypno-mom, and Certified Hypnobabies Childbirth Instructor serving the Pittsburgh area. After having 2 calm, comfortable, and confident births using Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis, I decided it was too good not to share! I am happy to offer group and private classes along with home study advantage (HSA) sessions to expecting families in the Pittsburgh area. Hypnobabies is a 6-week
, 21-hour complete childbirth education course that covers the basics of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum AND teaches you self-hypnosis tools for an easier, more comfortable birth experience. Whether you are a first-time or experienced mom, there are many unique benefits to the program that can help you- regardless of your birth plan, background, faith or belief system- to have a safer, more comfortable, and empowering birth experience. Hypnobabies recognizes and embraces the fact that no two women, nor pregnancies, are the same AND that different, personalized birth experiences are desired. While many expectant women discover Hypnobabies on their pursuit for an unmedicated or natural birth, others, like myself, find it by way of searching for something to alleviate (completely normal) fears or anxiety about giving birth. Still others have found it helpful in gaining confidence throughout their pregnancy or to help heal from a previous traumatic birth experience. Here you will find empowering, encouraging, and evidence-based pregnancy and childbirth information and inspiration. Please feel free to contact me for a complementary call. I look forward to supporting you throughout your peaceful pregnancy and easy, empowering birth experience!

Making Informed Decisions About VBAC or Repeat Cesareans | VBAC.com
Some mothers who have a cesarean know before becoming pregnant again that next time they want to plan a VBAC. Other mothers are sure they want a repeat operation. For some mothers the decision is sometimes difficult to make. Each woman is different and has the right to decide for herself based on th...

โWhy the Need For Awareness
โข Researchers estimate that almost half of the cesareans performed could be safely prevented.
โข If families donโt know these options exist they canโt advocate for them.
โข Cesareans can be more or less โfamily friendlyโ depending on the practices and protocols at a facility and provider support.
โข Preventable Cesareans may be responsible for up to 20,000 major surgical complications a year, including sepsis, hemorrhage, and organ injury.โ

Catherineโs Hypnobabies Change of Plans C-SectionโMy normally anxious self would be very stressed out thinking about this major change in plans
A healthy baby is NOT the ONLY thing that matters. You are NOT one feeling or one emotion. You are a complex human being who is allowed to have more needs than just staying alive, and more desires than having a healthy baby. The systematic dismissal of the importance of birth experiences and disregard for comprehensive maternal health is, perhaps, the ultimate driving force behind my purpose as a doula and educator. The โA healthy baby is all that mattersโ platitude is damaging and further perpetuates this disregard and dismissal of women and parents.
โ โ
First of all, I have *never* met a parent who wouldnโt do anything necessary for the health of their baby, if recommended by a provider they *trust*. The healthiest parent and baby possible is the bottom line. But. OTHER THINGS MATTER TOO. Acknowledging that trust, autonomy, respect, being heard, and even hopes and dreams MATTER does NOT detract from oneโs gratitude for their baby. It is normal and healthy to have an opinion about your body and birth!
Second, these needs can be met *regardless* of mode of delivery or birth preferences obtained/not obtained. When these comprehensive needs are met, many kinds of birth experiences can be positive.
Third. Some babies are not born healthy. How a mother or parent is treated its *always* important. Following the logic of โa healthy baby is all that mattersโ, then what matters when a baby is not healthy?
โ โ
Regardless of preferences, circumstances, controllables, and uncontrollablesโฆHow one feels during and about their birth experience affects mental health, physical health, and bonding with their baby. That matters.
Sexism and racism are baked into our maternity care systems and our cultural attitudes about birth and those who give birth. LISTENING is one of the essential parts of deconstructing and dismantling these patriarchal attitudes.
This hierarchy of birth needs is based on Maslowโs Hierarchy of Needs. I regard this hierarchy as imperfect and a work in progress!
Accurate?! The dilation stages as told by ๐!

Pre-Birth Waves: Braxton Hicks ๐
It is common to experience warm-up pressure waves during the last half of pregnancy known as โBraxton Hicks contractionsโ. These are sporadic uterine waves that tone and increase coordination of the uterine muscles in preparation for birth. Though not everyone can feel them, many of those who do say they experience a tightening feeling or โlike a balloon being inflated in my bellyโ. These warm-up waves may be very slight and other times very powerful, and they can vary with your activity. Some may not even notice them at all. These periods of warm-up pressure waves before birth are often referred to as โfalse laborโ, but thereโs nothing false about them! We tend to think of them as warm-up exercises for your uterus, so they're definitely a good thing.
Pressure waves that continue for a few hours without leading directly into the birthing time are called pre-birth waves. These waves prepare the body and position the baby for childbirth. Towards the end of pregnancy, pre-birth waves tend to occur more frequently. Until the last few weeks of pregnancy, these waves will probably remain infrequent, mild, and irregular. Some people find they get more pressure waves when they're dehydrated, so be sure to drink plenty of water, especially as your guess date approaches.
