Serene Birthright
My journey to becoming a Wise Hippo Instructor
So terrified of giving birth I never wanted to do it.
I get it, I do. I promise.
With the picture portrayed of childbirth today who in their right mind would want to do that?
Like many women it wasn't for me. My fear was so deep that I had come to the conclusion that I wasn't going to have children.
A 5 minute clip sowed a tiny seed.
At the end of a documentary about birth I saw a woman talk about a hypnobirth. I'd never heard of this but decided it was the way forward. If I was ever going to have a baby that was the way I was going to do it.
I did my research and got pregnant.
I booked a course, religiously did my homework and had an amazing birth. I was so impressed that I had gone from not wanting children, due to extreme fear of giving birth, to actually loving the birth. I was raving to everyone I knew and met after having my first baby about my life changing experience.
Everyone commented that my experience was incredible and that they wished I could teach them what I knew.
Hmmm why not train and teach it myself?
My job is a Teacher. I wanted to spread the message. By training I could help so many more people. Really it was a no brainer.
Was I just lucky? Was it a fluke?
Well just to prove any doubters wrong, I did it again. And guess what my second birth was just as incredible as the first. If it wasn't for having to care for them afterwards I really would give birth all day long everyday as it was so enjoyable!
