Summary
In this episode of The Hypnobirthing Podcast , I break down some of the most common myths surrounding birth, and gently challenge the messages so many parents hear during pregnancy. From dramatic TV portrayals to well-meaning but often frightening stories from others, it’s easy to feel anxious about what birth might be like. But how much of what we hear is actually true? This episode is all about separating myth from reality, so you can approach your birth feeling calmer, more informed, and more confident.
