Option 2: Independent Home Study Course
Hypnobabies also has a wonderful home study option and can be purchased directly from Hypnobabies.com. The cost is $180-$220 depending on if you order the online home study version or the (hard copy) print edition version of the home study course. This is a self-study that the birthing person does mostly on their own, though birth partners are encouraged to follow along and have a few small things to do to be involved. It contains the same wonderful tools and techniques that are taught in the live Hypnobabies childbirth class.
The print edition of the home study course includes all Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis printed workbooks, booklets, handouts and audio tracks (on MP3 download cards), which is especially great if you don’t want to print out a TON of materials because they send them all to you, shipped in an organized fashion! Our doula clients love the print edition because it keeps them accountable and is easily accessible in a binder; a tangible way to learn since having physical papers can be more of a reminder to create a ritual.

When to start Hypnobabies?
If you’re interested in Hypnobabies, the “ideal” learning schedule is starting at 28-30 weeks! There is a little homework each week, then listening to the empowering joyful birth affirmations track (the only track that is not hypnosis) while brushing your teeth, driving, doing dishes, etc. each day, and then listening to each week’s hypnosis track before bed/while sleeping (yes, sleeping through it still counts!).
Unlike hypnobirthing which doesn’t have actual hypnosis, this Los Angeles-based Hypnobabies childbirth course is not a basic hypnobirthing course where you just listen whenever you want here and there, and will not be effective if you listen and learn one day here, one day there, skip a week, etc.
Unlike the older style of hypnobirthing, Hypnobabies is actually medical-grade hypnosis used by medical professionals for preparing their clients for spinal surgeries and dentistry without anesthesia, but it’s formulated for birthing. The schedule is very structured and is so in order to be effective. You can sleep with a track so literally you can’t get behind since you’re not wasting daylight hours listening to tracks.
Also, if you’re already past 30 weeks, there is an accelerated version so don’t let that stop you from learning Hypnobabies, the best tool for an easier, more comfortable birth experience.
