It is very important that the husband/partner learns the hypnobirthing® techniques with the mother, as he has a vital role to play.

Birth transforms a couple into a family, the husband should not watch from the sidelines. With Hypnobirthing® he is completely involved in the important preparation, the labour and the birth as well as with the care of the new baby. He acts as an advocate for the mother at all times.

During labour and the birth he will use support mechanisms and massage techniques and he will apply the special hypnotic deepening techniques he has learned to enable the birthing mother to remain calm, relaxed and comfortable. He is close and involved as the baby is born.

If he wishes he may cut the cord. This level of involvement and early bonding lays strong foundations for the new role of fatherhood. This will continue as he helps with the care of the baby in the early weeks and throughout its life..
