THE MONGAN METHOD
“The HypnoBirthing® view of birth is that it is a natural extension of the sexuality of a man and women, and, therefore, we believe that birth is about them. It is about family fulfillment.”
GET STARTED NOWWhat is HypnoBirthing®?
HypnoBirthing® is both technique and philosophy combined to
help create a rewarding, relaxing, and stress free method of birthing. It is
based on the belief that all babies should come into this world joyfully,
calmly, and gently. When practiced correctly, mother can summon her natural
birthing instincts and experience this kind of birthing using the tools of
self-hypnosis, breathing techniques, and visualization for deep relaxation.
Is HypnoBirthing® Right For Me?
Are you searching for a birth experience that is less
invasive for you and your baby–one that will give you more confidence than
other experiences that your friends and relatives may have
had? HypnoBirthing® supports a mother’s decision to birth however she
chooses. HypnoBirthing® can be applied within a hospital setting, birthing
center or home birth. Mothers drawn to HypnoBirthing® have been searching
for a way that helps them to experience the birth they envision.
What Does Hypnosis Have To Do With Birth?
Hypnosis is the process of learning how to allow
yourself to relax your body and go into your subconscious mind. The
Subconscious mind is where fears of birth are imprinted. In HypnoBirthing® we
practice hypnosis to eliminate previous horror stories of birth and replace
them with positive thoughts of birthing. This creates a positive mindset and
prepares you for a positive outcome. Don’t get hung up on the name
‘hypno.’ Hypnosis is a focused state of concentration; you are fully in
control, conscious and aware of your surroundings. You are not in an eerie
trance state or being mind controlled.
Is It True That I Will Experience A Pain-free Birth With HypnoBirthing®?
HypnoBirthing® does not promise you’ll have a pain free birth
but mothers do often report to having relatively pain-free births by
birthing with out fear. Fear creates adrenaline, which causes the uterus
to tense, and there for causes insufficient oxygen and blood flow to the
uterus. This causes the pain commonly felt during a contraction. However,
when mothers use the tools given to them and maintain a calm, relaxed state
they are less likely to feel pain and more likely to experience sensations
of pressure or tightening.
How Is My Birth Companion Involved?
If you have a birth companion, we will make them
an essential part of your HypnoBirthing® experience. They will
practice with mom in helping her to prepare for deep relaxation. During labor
they will guide the laboring mother with relaxing techniques, deepening
methods, light touch massage, and can be a part of receiving baby.
What If I Decide To Get An Epidural Or Cesarean?
One of the misconceptions about HypnoBirthing is that it is only for women who want a drug free childbirth. Often, many HypnoBirthing mothers do choosed unmedicated birthing. However, HypnoBirthing teaches techniques that are very helpful in having a successful delivery no matter what your birth plan or circumstances are. The tools and education you receive from classes empower you to make the best choices for you and your baby.
