S3 EP11: BIRTH MYTHS - Will you be judged for doing hypnobirthing?
Welcome to The Doula's Guide To... Podcast, season 3 episode 11. Today I wanted to chat to you about some common myths I hear all the time around using hypnobirthing tools and techniques. So often people have a fear of being judged for wanting to change their birth environment, or they worry about being called naive for planning an unmedicated birth for example. I address these common anxieties in this episode and share some tips for getting people on board with your birth plans too. ❤*Please note this podcast is not medical advice (also please note there is a lot of swearing in this episode!
