“I really cannot express how much the hypnobirthing helped me. It was a very intense experience but I made it through completely unmedicated and naturally. I was able to stay so calm, quiet and maintain a peaceful environment… I really want to thank you again so much for giving us the tools to bring our baby into the world in the best way we could. We are so happy with how it went!!! He is an amazing and adorable little boy!”

“When we began the discussion of pain management I was 100% certain that I did not want medication. We chose HypnoBirthing® – The Mongan Method. It was one of the best decisions we could have ever made for our pregnancy education. It completely aligned with our belief system; not only in the medication-free aspect but also the aspect that a woman’s body is designed for the pregnancy and birthing process and can achieve a healthy, normal birth without outside intervention. HypnoBirthing also helped us to release the remaining pain and fear from a previous miscarriage experience so it didn’t interfere with our natural birth plan.
We contacted Cheryl and scheduled our HypnoBirthing classes with her. We quickly realized that our own instincts together with the material we covered in class were all the education we needed so we opted not to sign up for the childbirth courses offered at the hospital. With consistent practice of the techniques we felt empowered to handle any situation that would arise during pregnancy, labor and birthing.”
