I’m incredibly proud of these testimonials and am so grateful to the people who have taken time out of their birth and baby prep to write one for me! It really does mean the world to me and is my motivation to keep sharing this awesome thing that is hypnobirthing!
So, please have a read!…
“As someone who wanted nothing more than to have a positive birth story, I found this course gave me lots of tools to enable that to be possible. You can tell Ruth is really passionate about helping others to have a positive experience and understand what it is they want to achieve during birth. Her enthusiasm is really engaging and helps you to get the most out of the course!
I would definitely recommend this course and Ruth to my pregnant friends, whether they are new or familiar with hypnobirthing!”

Ruth (Pea in the Pod Hypnobirthing) has helped me and my husband feel informed, inspired and excited about the birth of our first child. The course covered the physicality of birth as well as techniques on how to ensure birth feels controlled and empowered. Ruth’s style of teaching was relaxed and easy to understand and her calm and approachable personality made each session really enjoyable. We’re both excited to welcome our little one into the world and are very thankful to Ruth that she has helped us ensure the experience feels as relaxed as possible.

Now my daughter is 2 months old, I’ve had chance to reflect on her birth and the positive impact Ruth and her hypnobirthing course made.
Although I didn’t have the birth centre experience I had hoped for, my daughter arrived safely and both me and my husband agreed that the course allowed us to feel empowered, ask meaningful questions and navigate a medical environment with confidence.
The interventions I gave consent to were welcomed calmly and I liked having the teachings from the course in mind at each stage.
Huge thanks to Ruth from me and my baby girl.

Ruth’s hypnobirthing session, based on creating a calm caesarean, was exactly what we needed to be prepared and accepting of our birth.
The session was wonderful at getting us to adapt our way of thinking and become far more positive and excited about the delivery of our babies.
After a traumatic experience with an emergency caesarean in 2020, I was nervous and apprehensive about the process this time around with my breech twins.
Ruth came to our home and delivered a tailored caesarean session that was perfect at addressing the past complications and our subconscious thoughts that might not be helpful. She helped us to re-frame our negative thoughts, discuss our hopes and worries and adapt our thinking. She clearly explained the psychology behind the method which really helped us understand the importance of hypnobirthing and the power of having a positive mindset.
The session also covered the practical side of what will happen on the day
of our birth and a huge helpful list of the choices available to us in the
caesarean that then went on to frame my birth plan.
We were given course materials, guided relaxations and MP3s to use after the
course to continue our hypnobirthing journey and these have been so useful in
helping us feel even more emotionally prepared for our birth.
I’d recommend Pea in the Pod Hypnobirthing to anyone who wants to feel in
control of their birth experience and gain positive tools to do this. We really
enjoyed the course and now cannot wait for our birth. Thank you, Ruth!
