For Fathers or Birthing Companions
Fathers or birthing companions in a HypnoBirth have a major role to play. During the pregnancy they work with their partners in preparation for the birth, in a way that can help them bond with both their partners and the babies. During the birth, the birthing companion’s involvement is vital in assisting the mother to stay as relaxed as possible. Some people have said that birthing companions have the most to do in a HypnoBirth!
