Cornwall HypnoBirthing & Hypnotherapy

I did the hypnobirthing course with Terri in November 2022, and birthed my beautiful boy February 2023. The course gave me confidence in my body and knowledge to make informed decisions. It encouraged me to do my research when considering my birth plan. In terms of the labour, I had a 48 hour latent labour, when things were kicking off overnight then stopping me. Terri was the other end of the phone to offer words of support and insight which brought me back from feeling demoralised. During the labour process, I managed pretty much using a tens machine and practicing breathing/ listening to affirmations. In fact, even when I was having surges every 4 minutes, I managed to relax myself so much I became unaware of 2 hours of time passing, it almost felt like Id gone to sleep! All I can say is this course is a true investment in your birth experience, it also empowers your partner to support you in the best way possible.

We did a Hypnobirthing course with Terri in Sept 2021 and following that we also chose Terri to be our doula in Jan 2022 for the birth of our Son. I can not recommend Terri highly enough. She completely transformed our outlook on birth and equipped us with all the tools we needed to have the drug free, water birth we chose for our son. If you are questioning if the investment in the hypnobirthing course and/or her doula services are worth it, the answer is 100% yes!

Where to start! My wife and I felt so unprepared for birth and a bit apprehensive about the stereotypical language used in typical baby classes. We didnt want to talk about mums and dads and pushing and inductions. So we hunted and we found Terri and this was the start of an epic journey in an inclusive environment where we felt super comfortable to be us and were surrounded by others like us too. It was great to have content that was about us. Terris hypnobirthing classes have really given us an incredible understanding and confidence in how we want to birth our child, and how we are the ones who will make the decisions and lead - not the other way around. Weve come away with new friends, great methods and learnings and a new confidence.

My wife and I were so excited about starting a family; we wanted to ensure we felt fully prepared leading up to, during and after the birth. You hear loads of stories from friends and only really see birth on the tv or film, but that never gives you all the information to really feel confident in the process- which is why we chose Cornwall Hypnobirthing & hypnotherapy. Wed followed Terri on Instagram for a while and heard how great she was so booked on to one of her courses asap. The training was incredibly inclusive, accessible and informative. There is so much we didnt know, and I dont mean how to change nappies or bath a baby but the process of pregnancy and giving birth, what is actually happening to our bodies! Learning about the physiological and psychological process; its incredible really! My wife and I have learnt so much in four weeks that even our midwives were impressed! We asked questions at our appointments which we would never of thought of, we challenge recommendations and most of all, we are enjoying the journey - we are not scared, we feel confident and we are super excited! Terri is incredibly down to earth and knowledgeable; she makes you feel so comfortable and at ease; no question is a silly question! We now have so many tips, techniques and ideas we plan to try out together in the coming weeks. Knowledge is power, and thats why we now feel confident together and excited about the process of giving birth knowing that we will travel through that moment with knowledge, empowerment and the understanding of our choices. There will always be elements of the unknown but we can confidently say we are ready for it and we will make it our own special journey, together.

We did Terri's hypnobirthing group course via Zoom at 20 weeks. The course content was really interesting and informative. Despite being over zoom due to lockdown Terri ensured there was plenty of interaction and quizes to keep us engaged. Through the subsequent weeks Terri provided support via WhatsApp and no question was ever too much trouble. Im a naturally anxious person & Terri really helped to put me at ease - right up to the night I went into labour. The course left us feeling empowered and able to make informed decisions, leading to having a planned home birth which was truly amazing. For anyone considering doing a course with Terri at Cornwall Hypnobirthing, I highly recommend booking. It really is the best investment in the preparation for birth and beyond.
