Hi Tracey, Sorry again for taking so long to get back to you. And thank you for the fantastic book you sent, It arrived at a time I needed it most and helped me to return to myself and become the mother I had wanted to be. It all seemed so hard to start with, I was not coping well at all. As mentioned, we did not attain our 'Calmbirth' delivery as such, but I know that the classes helped me and helped us in the acceptance of how our baby was going to end up coming into this world.

Hi Tracey, Just letting you know that my beautiful boy Jack finally made his way into the world on the 3rd of October (I'm a little late in telling you I know!) He certainly was a whopper - 9lb 2oz, 53 cm long and a 40cm head circumference! The Calm Birth course and the things I learnt during it played a huge part in the birth.

Dear Tracey,
We just wanted to write to say thank you so much for taking us through the Calm Birth class. At the beginning of the pregnancy we never thought that the pregnancy and Aronin’s birth could be such a beautiful experience. We progressed from Richard saying ‘How are we going to get him out of you?’ after our 12 week scan to looking forward to Aronin’s birth day. Your first session helped us put aside our fears of pain during the birth and gave Richard a sense of the important role he would take and your second session helped us with our fears of parenthood. Our minds were able to shift so we enjoyed Bec’s pregnancy, bonded with Aronin before he was born, and were excited instead of scared when his birth day arrived.

Dear Tracey,
I just had to put into words what an amazing experience it was to birth our son. As you know when I first came to you I was very challenged by of the concepts in the Calmbirth course, however I can now say that the course not only helped Geoff and I to achieve the exact birth we had dreamed of but thought was not possible for us, it also gave us a space to explore our anxieties about parenting. I credit Calmbirth for our beautiful birthing experience as well as enhancing our marriage and making us far better parents. Thomas says thank you!!!!
All our love and appreciation, Kate, Geoff and Thomas ox
Calm Birthing Thomas
I have to preface this story by saying that Thomas is our little miracle and a fight right from the start. Before falling pregnant I had 11 lots of surgery, 2 gynaecologists tell me to have a hysterectomy as I had no chance of ever conceiving and IVF. However, I trusted my own body and my instincts told me that I would be a mother one day so I persevered and Thomas was conceived.
Upon referring us to a specialist high risk pregnancy obstetrician our IVF specialist told us that due to my history I would need to have a caesarean delivery. Neither my husband nor I were too keen on a Caesar but we were happy to go ahead with it if given evidence that a vaginal delivery would be dangerous for me or our child. At our first consult we tried to discuss this and were told we could “try” for a vaginal but we would “talk about it at the end of the pregnancy” and this “wasn't something I should worry about now”.
Following this consult I was left feeling very powerless. I felt like I had been very patronised and had not been listened to however this was the best thing that ever happened as this inspired us to go looking for another alternative and we found Calmbirth.

Hi Tracey
I thought I would send you an email to let you know our birth experience using CalmBirth. Gavin and I attended your course in October last year.
In the last 10 weeks of my pregnancy I tried to do a relaxation exercise each day. At first I found that they just put me to sleep, but after a while I got the hang of it.
