to help you stop feeling anxious and start feeling prepared: https://www.betterbirthandbaby.co.uk/masterclass-better-birth Welcome to Better Birth & Baby. I am Debbie Willis, a Pregnancy and Birth Coach and Antenatal Educator specialising in Hypnobirthing. I had two normal and straightforward (I often call them ’boring’) births that led me to want to support women and birthing people to have the birth they want – a positive one - just like I did. During the past 10 years I have supported over 300 couples to feel calm and even excited about the birth and have had a great many positive birth stories from them showing how the tools and techniques they learnt helped them, no matter what birth journey they had on the day. My passion is for all women to have a positive experience of birth and not be in fear of what their body is designed to do. My experience has led me to develop 7 key steps that help mums-to-be reduce fears they have around the birth and trust in their bodies to enable them to have the birth they want. They include hypnobirthing and mindfulness techniques to help reduce the likelihood of interventions, to reduce pain that they may be feeling and help them feel in control, and having the tools to be able to make informed evidence-based decisions that are right for mum and baby.

Fear is not real. It is False Evidence Appearing Real.

And it can fill your body with adrenaline which is your enemy when you are in labour.

It slows labour and can make contractions more painful PLUS it reduces the oxygen levels flowing to your baby.. all of which can lead to medical interventions.

Imagine going into labour feeling calm, confident, and in control.

Imagine being able to trust your body and the birth process, knowing you have the tools and knowledge to handle whatever comes your way.

Here are some ways YOU can reduce the fear and take charge of your birthing experience:

💜By learning how birth works, so you feel empowered rather than overwhelmed
💜By preparing and planning for different scenarios, so you feel ready for anything
💜By mastering techniques to help you manage contractions, so you feel in control
💜By preparing and educating your birth partner, so you feel supported every step of the way
💜By knowing your options and how to make evidence-based decisions, so you feel informed and making decisions that feel right for you and baby
💜By asking the right questions in the birth room, so you feel confident and calm

You deserve a birth experience that is as positive and empowering as possible.

Book a no-obligation f*r*e*e video call with me to chat about how I can help you achieve the birth you want. Let's transform your fear into confidence, and your anxiety into excitement.

Don't let fear dictate your birth.

Being labelled “high risk” in pregnancy can feel like a tidal wave of fear, statistics, and restrictions.

It often comes with more appointments, more opinions, and more assumptions about what your birth is going to look like.

If you’re over 35 for example, or maybe planning a VBAC, or maybe had complications in a previous pregnancy, you may already feel like the choices are being made for you.

But let me offer this reframe:

Being classed as high risk doesn’t mean you’re destined for a traumatic, highly medicalised or intervention filled birth.

It simply means the system is watching more closely.

But it can sometimes feel like you you’ve lost your voice, or your ability to experience pregnacy and birth in a calm and positive way.

So here is what I want you to know:

✅ You can be consultant-led, and still make informed decisions that feel right for you. You can say 'No' to anything. It's always your choice.

✅ You can have birth preferences, even if you’re having an induction or planned caesarean.

✅ You can carry the label “high risk” and feel like you have everything in control.. and even look forward to the birth.

Most importantly, you don’t have to navigate this alone.

If you’re pregnant and feeling overwhelmed or anxious and want more than just a checklist.. you want clarity, confidence, and meaningful support.. my support is designed for you.

✨ I help mums and mums-to-be prepare for birth in a way that calms the mind, supports informed choices, and helps you feel ready, no matter what route your birth takes.

📥 If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, send me a message and we can chat about how we can work together.

Pregnancy is a time of intense mental input, and not all of it is helpful.

The voices, stories, and messages you feed into your mind all shape how you feel.. and how you approach birth.

Inside my programme I guide you through what to feed your mind, which sources actually help, and how to work out what to listen to so your confidence grows instead of your anxiety.

So your mind can work with you and for you and not against you!

If you want personalised guidance DM 'CALL' for a free clarity call with me.

YOUR BODY KNOWS HOW TO DO THIS 🤰

I often think of my job as helping women to trust in their bodies and to recognise that they already know how to give birth.

Your body has this knowledge deep in your subconscious, just like breathing.

It's guided by hormones that know exactly what to do when your baby is ready to come.

You might call it a gut feeling, intuition, or maternal instinct, but whatever you call it, you need to listen!

Your intuition is powerful. The more prepared and educated you are about birth, the easier it will be to trust that your gut feelings are coming from a place of strength, not fear..

👂 Listen to your instincts mamas!
💪🏼 Your body is perfectly designed
🙋🏼‍♀️ Prepare your mind and your body
🗝 Gain knowledge of how birth works

You've got this!

Pregnant women don’t join my programme because they know nothing about birth, or because they don’t know what kind of birth they want for their baby.

They join because they know they want a birth without unnecessary medical interventions. A birth where they feel in control and calm, coping with contractions and knowing how to reduce pain levels.

They inherently know that their body CAN birth a baby but are worried about what could happen if there are complications and how they’re ging to cope with that.

They know that there is a lot of information out there but are unsure what to believe or who to trust.

It can make it an overwhelming time.

And can sometimes make you feel particularly anxious.

For example, at the first session with a pregnant client and her birth partner today, these are some of the things we worked through:

🤔 How do I listen to my body on an intuitive level?
🤔 Am I too late to start practising hypnosis at this stage of pregnancy?
🤔 I am really concerned about care providers not listening to me in labour, how can I make sure that doesn’t happen.. cause it happened last time.
🤔 Is it possible to reduce pain levels?
🤔 How can I support her when she is having painful contractions?
🤔 What if something happens and they suggest a caesarean?

They even uncovered key insights about the connection between our mind and body in labour that they didn’t realise they needed to know!

And in reality.. we know that when you’re prepared and know what’s ahead in pregnancy and labour, everything feels more manageable and far less overwhelming.

If this is the kind of support you are looking for during your pregnancy then book in a free video call with me. I have availability for just two more couples in Jan/Feb for my Bespoke Better Birth Hypnobirthing programme, and I love talking about pregnancy and birth, so let’s chat.

What if I learn hypnobirthing and end up having a caesarean?

Well, this says it all.. (Elly and Henry had a peaceful weekend at one of our unique Hypnobirthing Babymoons during her pregnancy)

“I needed a c-section before we even got to labour in the end, but the techniques you taught us were so helpful. They really kept me calm in a high stress situation, and actually have been really helpful tools in my toolbox in stressful situations since.

Henry and I often tell our friends what a positive experience we had working with you and as our friends start to follow our lead and begin their own families we will be recommending your services. "
~ Elly, Northampton

Birth doesn’t always go to plan, but the skills you learn stay with you for life.

Hypnobirthing isn’t just for a straightforward physiological birth. It’s for calm. For confidence. For feeling grounded in the moments you can’t control. And as Elly’s story shows, those tools can make all the difference in a caesarean birth too.. and long after.

If you’d love to feel prepared for every path your birth might take, my hypnobirthing courses and Babymoons are designed to support you through all types of birth, with evidence-based tools you’ll use for life.

You deserve to feel confident, informed and supported whatever happens on the day.

If you are reading this having learned and used hypnobirthing techniques already, we'd love to hear in the comments how they've helped and if you are still using them!

You’re allowed to ask why.

You’re allowed to choose what feels right for your body and your baby.

And you’re absolutely allowed to have a birth that reflects your values, wants and needs... not someone else’s expectations.

You're allowed to say no.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by appointments, opinions, or “shoulds,” remember that..

You are the decision-maker.

You’re allowed to take charge.

It's your body and your baby.

If you want support, clarity and evidence-based guidance as you prepare for birth, my Bespoke Better Birth Course gives you all the tools you need.. with space to ask every question that matters.

✨ Limited 1:1 availability in Dec and Jan.. message me “BIRTH” for details.

Hi, I’m Debbie from Better Birth & Baby

Welcome to Better Birth & Baby. My name is Debbie Willis and I teach Hypnobirthing antenatal workshops to expectant parents to help them to reduce fear and anxiety to help them have a positive birth experience. I am passionate about enabling women have a calm, relaxed and fear free birth, one where they feel in control, as I did for my two births. If you are wondering why I do what I do, and why I love it so much.. take a look at my story here on my website. You can also find lots more info on my website www.betterbirthandbaby.co.uk such as some detailed information on how hypnosis for birth works, some lovely birth stories and testimonials from parents who have been on my workshops, and of course my contact details if you wish to contact me for any further information on my group or 1-to-1 workshops. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you have the birth you want.
