They say second babies often come early. Tanner was convinced ours would, especially with the increasing discomfort and pain I was feeling toward the end. I wasn’t so sure. Ida had arrived two days past her due date, and I assumed this baby would follow suit. We were both wrong. More than anything, this birth was a mental journey. With my first pregnancy, I wanted to prepare mentally—but never fully committed. I assumed my research and the countless birth stories I had read w

🌿 Are you sitting in the in-between space? Looking back at a previous birth with bits of disappointment, trauma, or guilt of some kind? And yet, looking forward with hope, trepidation, or anxiety to your next birth? Many women find themselves here in this place. It can feel uncomfortable and disconcerting and incredibly lonely. How is it possible to hold these feelings all at once? Perhaps feeling hurt or let down by God when you did everything ‘right’ in your faith-filled b

Samantha writes: "I wanted to send a note to tell you THANK YOU for your work! I had the most amazing home birth thanks to your app and book. I am so thankful a friend recommended this to me, as I had been listening to Hypnobirthing tracks, but didn’t relate well to them due to my religion. This was exactly what I needed." Birth story: I listened to the positive affirmations and the removing fear tracks on repeat. My first birth experience was not great and I had many moments

Jesus Is Rest In a world that is constantly rushing, striving, and stretching us to our limits, rest can feel like a distant luxury. But for those who follow Jesus, rest isn’t just a concept, it’s a person. Jesus IS rest. When we think of rest, we often imagine sleep, stillness, or an escape from chaos. But in the presence of Jesus, rest goes much deeper. It’s not so much about stepping away from life, but stepping into Him. Knowing Jesus Is Rest Rest begins not with doing l

Thank you so much for being a part of my birth story! Though a bit long, I really wanted to share about my pregnancy, labor, and birth of our second daughter! “It was absolutely amazing! The kind of birth I wish every woman could experience. Calm, no stress, no timeline, surrounded by your husband and daughter, backyard pool at sunset, wedding song playing on your anniversary - it doesn’t get much better!” These are the words my doula used as she reflected on my birth and th

"The Christian Hypnobirthing book and app had such a positive impact on me throughout my fourth pregnancy. They helped me replace alot of fear and uncertainty I was carrying with peace, confidence, and a deeper trust in God’s presence and plan. The hypnobirthing tracks became a source of calm that I returned to again and again, especially during moments of anxiety, reminding me to breathe, surrender, and trust my body and, most importantly, the Lord." Birth story: "With all t

"My name is Teresa Larson and I just wanted to reach out to share my experience with your course and app with both my births 18 months apart. The attached video is from my second birth with our daughter at the California Birth Center in Rocklin CA. I was introduced to the Christian Hypnobirthing Course by my sister when I was pregnant with our first in 2024. I found the course to be so empowering and encouraging. I spent the second half of my pregnancy listening to the track

When I got pregnant with my second baby, I wasn’t planning on having an unmedicated birth. I gave birth to my first with an epidural, and overall it wasn’t a super long or difficult labor. My son was born at 38 weeks and 4 days weighing 6 lbs 4 oz. After he was born, he struggled to latch, lost almost a pound, and I was never able to successfully nurse him. With my second pregnancy, I was determined to try breastfeeding again and do whatever I could ahead of time to prepare.

Some of my most successful doula experiences have actually been the ones where I haven't been present at a birth. When I started out as a doula, I was so self-centred! I made births about me, what I would bring, what I was offering to my clients, and of course, I wanted to be ‘needed’. And yet at the same time, I also had a huge case of imposter syndrome. Why would anyone want me to part of such a special and sacred moment? Over the past few years, I have grown and matured aw

Callie's Story After a first birth experience full of interventions and a feeling of lost autonomy, I quietly prayed and prepared to have an empowering and redemptive experience. This time I put my mind to learning more about physiological birth and preparing myself mentally and spiritually. Reading this book and listening to the affirmations whenever I had a moment truly helped me to have a calm, peaceful, and faith filled heart throughout pregnancy and birth. Thank you!!! 1

Isabel's Birth Story: Baby Joshua born on his due date! During this pregnancy I had so many faith-filled reminders as I read Tara Menzies’ book: Faith-Filled Childbirth. I also had a guided prayer session with Helena Whitwell where I visualised my ideal homebirth. I felt prepared and fully trusted my body, and that God was in it all with me. I woke up at 1:14am on 4 July (my due date) with gentle period-like cramps, which came every 10 minutes. This was exactly how labour sta

April 28th, I felt prompted to write this. The birth I experience will be by the grace of God, the redemptive blood of Jesus, & by the incredible power of the Holy Spirit. “Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in You, all whose thoughts are fixed on You.” May 27th, here’s what happened. 7:52 - Woke up to my 3yr olds call and an immediate contraction. I’d had Braxton hicks sporadically over previous few days so I was unsurprised. Every time I’d had on

"I was looking for tools to help with a faith-filled birth. I had my baby boy 4 days ago and I definitely used your Christian hypnobirthing app leading up to my birth, which is absolutely amazing so thank you. I had such a fun birth and enjoyed listening to your voice which allowed my to surrender to Gods will and for him to fill me with faith for this birth." Birth Story: My name is Rachel and I recently had my third baby boy on the 14th of May in the early hours of the morn

"I listened to the app while doing my pregnancy stretches, and it truly helped me connect with my baby and with God. It helped me feel His peace, prepare my heart for birth, and invite Him into every part of the process." I refused to believe my body was broken or that twin birth was a problem to fix. I trusted my God given design and had a joyful, fear-free home birth with twins. At my first ultrasound, I was told I’d need a C-section simply because I was having twins. I tho

TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual Abuse After 11 years of marriage the one persistent question I’ve had to field was “when are you guys having kids!?” Some people were sensitive enough to assume (albeit wrongly) that we had fertility issues. I guess in a way, we did face difficulties with the possibility of conceiving a child because of my sexual abuse history, it took a lot of work to regain a sense of autonomy. How do I then give over my body to be “broken” for yet another? These wer

It’s been exactly 2 weeks since God met me. And while I’d like to say he’s met me many times before this moment, this was the true experience where I can whole heartedly say that I felt His entire presence wrapped tightly around me, comforting me in my darkest hour. On the early morning of April 16th, I woke up knowing I would meet my angel girl that day. I got up, looked at myself in the mirror, held my belly, and told her she is welcome into our home and we are so excited f

"Your [Christian Hypnobirthing] tracks were I think the main factor in me being able to have a pain free, redemptive, promised birth center water birth. (Besides the spirit of God of course). I would listen to them nearly everyday on walks with my son. I listened to the tracks during prodromal labor, which I had for weeks before she was born. I listened to them every night. I eventually listened to them so much that I had internalized the scriptures track and had memorized

I was donated a book by Tara, and I didn’t even realize how much it would change my life. Around a couple of weeks pregnant, I reached out to Tara on Instagram and told her about my situation. Throughout my pregnancy, I struggled with anxiety regarding the whole birthing process and finances. I was 19 at the time, still in college, and our finances did not look good whatsoever, so I asked if she would be willing to donate her book to me—and thank you to our Lord that she did

After my daughter’s emergency c-section birth in 2023 (meconium-stained waters, posterior position, cord wrapped around her body 4 times, fetal distress), I was earnestly seeking and praying for a VBAC with my son in 2025. I was exhausted in my first trimester and had the usual difficulty moving in the third trimester, this time with a toddler to run after! From 35 to 37 weeks pregnant, I had a horrible gastro bug and at one point even started to time the cramps that came, as

I caught my own baby . I never thought I would be writing those words after my journey through two hospital births into my first trepidation filled home birth. It is all due to Jesus Christ, my Lord and savior, and Christian Hypnobirthing’s powerful tracks. Through both, I achieved the most beautiful, sacred, empowering home birth I could have never dreamed up myself. My first natural birth was in a hospital, where I was given pitocin after my water broke. I was hooked up to
