When is the best time to start class?
Hypnobabies recommends that moms begin their 6-week Hypnobabies Group class series by 28-30 weeks gestation. Earlier is fine too, so long as the mother understands the amount of daily practice that is required to maintain her childbirth hypnosis tools until her baby is born. When moms begin our course by 28 - 30 weeks, they will finish the program just before their 37th week of pregnancy, which is considered early term. She is likely to also have time to practice her Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis techniques in "maintenance mode" before her baby is born.
Some couples may prefer to start earlier and have a longer "maintenance phase" to continue practicing their hypnosis tools for a longer time before giving birth. This is also great for helping couples relax and enjoy pregnancy and they usually sleep better too! Instructors can accept you in to class later, as long as your guess date is after the end of class, but we recommend following these guidelines to get the most out of the program.
