The Full Shebang: Hypnobirthing and Antenatal Course (suitable for due dates mid-late March, April and early May)

The Whole Shebang
With Natalie Mosson-Kelly, NMC registered midwife

I’m a midwife. I’ve seen what hypnobirthing-only courses can leave out, and I’ve seen traditional antenatal classes hand people a pile of facts with no idea how to cope when labour actually kicks in.

So I built The Whole Shebang, because I don’t think anyone should have to pick between two courses. You’re already juggling enough, and nobody has time for that!

This is the course I wish every person I looked after had been able to do, built from everything I’ve seen on the labour ward across countless births. Real life, not just theory. Everything in one place.

It’s a complete antenatal, birth and postnatal preparation course over four sessions, blending the calm and coping tools of hypnobirthing with the “wait, what’s actually happening?” explanations of a traditional antenatal class.

Session 1: The Mindset Bit
What even is hypnobirthing? We’ll chat about the fear-tension-pain cycle, your hormones (they’re brilliant, by the way), and how to get your head in the right place going into birth.

Session 2: The Toolkit Bit
Your hypnobirthing techniques and relaxation tools, all in one place. We’ll also cover how to make informed choices, how to find your way around the maternity system, and your rights during pregnancy and birth. Think of it as your confidence kit.

Session 3: The Birth Bit
Here’s where we get into the nitty gritty! The stages of labour, pain relief options, interventions, breathing, and writing a birth plan. No question is too awkward. I’ve heard them all.

Session 4: The After Bit
Welcome to the fourth trimester! Feeding, recovery, mental health and baby care, plus a session from Lauren at Little Lifesavers on infant CPR and choking. Skills you hope you’ll never need but absolutely should have.
