Hypnobirthing for an Emergency Caesarean at Blackpool Victoria Hospital
The birth of my daughter, Poppy, was a stark contrast to the birth of my son, Arlo. With Arlo, I used Hypnobirthing for a positive induction, even when things didn’t go exactly ‘to plan’. However, it wasn’t until Poppy’s birth that I truly understood the depth and importance of Hypnobirthing, especially when things really didn’t go to plan.

Hey I’m Eleanor,
I’m an experienced Hypnobirthing teacher, psychology grad and the founder of Birth With Choice.
If you’re feeling a bit nervous (or even terrified) about giving birth… you’re not alone. I’ve been there too.
When I was pregnant with my little boy, I craved a course that didn’t just tell me what might happen during labour – I wanted something that helped me understand how I felt about it all, and how to feel ready.
That’s when I found Hypnobirthing – and honestly, it changed everything.
I learnt what was actually happening in my body, how to make informed choices, and how to stay calm and confident, no matter how birth unfolded.
Now? I teach other parents to do the same – with no fluff, no pressure, just real tools that work.
