NICU parents do not get the “normal, expected discharge” from the hospital where they start their new life with a baby. Instead, their days are filled with worry, feelings of overwhelm and a whole other language and routine to learn regarding their child’s condition. 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘀 who meet families each day with the same kindness and understanding.⁣
⁣
From my personal NICU experience, a lot of what I needed to communicate well with the medical staff I had learned in the Hypnobirthing series I took while pregnant. 𝗜 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗯𝘆 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝘆𝗲 when they were speaking. Eye contact was equally important when I was asking my questions and requesting that they step outside of what their routine was when it came to my daughter.⁣
⁣
If you don’t know that you can ask for other options for care - you won’t.⁣
⁣
If you don’t know that you can still bond and take care of your baby - you won’t.⁣
⁣
The nurses have a lot of tips and tricks to share and can teach you a lot before you go home with your baby. The NICU is a place that allows for 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗲𝘆𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀. Let your nurses know you want to be involved in all of it and then set up a schedule for your baby.

In this latest episode in our Birth Educator series, we dive into the power of autonomy in childbirth with Maggie, a birth educator who transitioned from student to educator. We find out what the birth world is like in her area and 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝘂𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴!
Maggie took every set of classes we offered before the birth of her first son. She studied birth education like she was attaining a college degree. 𝗦𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀, 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵. She also shares the unexpected birth of her second son.
Along with her personal birth experiences, Maggie emphasizes the importance of education, preparation, and the ability to make informed decisions for a better birth outcome. We discuss everything from physiologically understanding birth to the role of the pelvic floor, and how being well-informed can reduce fear and lead to a more empowering birth experience, whether it's a home birth, hospital birth, or C-section.

In Hypnobirthing, we help you talk about your fears and either resolve them or create backup plans so you can go with the flow of labor.⁣
⁣
You will learn a broad scope of what birth can look like when you are connected to your baby and how many options you ACTUALLY have in the birth place that you choose.⁣
⁣
You come into the first week of class with possible fear and hesitation but after class 5 you leave feeling confident in your body, connected to the experience and are equipped with the mental and physical tools you'll need for this first, major experience with your baby. ⁣
⁣
𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂. ⁣
⁣
They are smart, little escape artists and they take the time that they need to figure out their placement and movement. Sometimes it's fast and sometimes it paced slower. Labor is so much simpler when you are allowing the process to unfold as your baby needs it to. Not placing an expectation on your "performance" is key. ⁣
⁣
YOU are a mammal. 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱. You've never met someone who's been pregnant forever. 𝗕𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁. ⁣
⁣
There are tools and support available to you in our Hypnobirthing classes. We love to help you find your way to your confidence and the innate power you already have inside. ⁣
