  • Such a helpful app!

    After doing the Hypnobirthing pack I was so happy to find this app! It takes all of the things we’ve learned and puts it all in one spot and is such a great way to practice leading up to birth.

    I’m 34 weeks and it has been great to practice up breathing with Siobhan counting before listening to my relaxation mp3s without having to download each individual file. The music is relaxing but I’m also excited that I can play my own music while I listen to the mp3s as well.

    Definitely helping me get more and more excited to meet our baby. And the app is also just aesthetically pleasing and well done!

  • Helpful

    Extremely helpful meditations for any part of pregnancy and beyond.
  • It helps!

    I used used Freya first to practice listening to a calming voice to practice hypobirthing. It helped a lot. I became relaxed and began to drift off to sleep. Later, I used it to count my real surges to screenshot and send to my midwife as a record. I was also able to send those to family to give a heads up if what’s happening or to show how fast my labor was going after I delivered. I was able to delete most of the accidental taps but one or two wouldn’t delete, showing a 3 second surge that confused people. For some reason though, I could delete the newer surges at least. I’ll be recommending this app to anyone I run into who needs a counter.
    One thing I’d love is for the developers to add stories along with the affirmations. I noticed several programs and ladies practicing hypnobirthing also love being told a first person story or a guided story to help get their minds off the pressure and discomfort and have a lesser painful delivery. I did this using a podcast with guided stories and had to keep switching the podcast and Freya to keep going. A little annoying but at least I had both. I think with a few various 2 minute guided stories would help.

  • Definitely Helped Me Through Labor

    I bought the Freya app as a “just in case” thing going into my first experience with labor. I made a birthing playlist and figured I would use that more. I was wrong! I barely listened to the playlist at all. The freya app really helped me to breathe through the contractions and fully relax in between. Even with an epidural, I used this right before the pushing stage because there was so much pressure that I needed help breathing through. I cannot recommend this app enough!

  • Amazing app and company!

    I love this company and think this app is the perfect addition to any hypnobirthing toolkit. The only downfall is that when the background music is on, it completely drowns out her guided voice to wear you can’t hear it. Such an unfortunate situation because I would really like to have the music accompany her voice. Please fix this with an update!

  • Helped me labor at home!

    I owe my ability to labor at home like I wanted to this app! I gave birth in a hospital but wanted to be home and comfortable as long as possible. This app helped me stay so calm that I wasn’t even sure I was in active labor until I suddenly felt the signs of transition! I made it to the hospital and baby was born less than an hour later. Recommend this app to anyone!

  • Everything woke turns to…

    Great app until the positive birthing company started going woke. *edited my review from 5 to 1 star after having my second child.* The app works fine but the verbiage used has changed. Kept needing to skip through some things that were very “new agey”.
  • App have 6 language “amazing”, easy to use

    My first language is Portuguese and I didn’t know that It have six language options and I get so surprised and excited when I saw the options I do you speak English but for sure when meditating your first language has more powerful.
    I just downloaded the app yesterday I am 35 weeks pregnant and I am in love
    everything in the app is well though and easy to use

    Minha primeira língua é português e fiquei muito surpresa de saber que eu poderia utilizar o app na minha língua isso é muito bom para que possamos meditar relaxar profundamente super recomendo o aplicativo! 👏🏼😍

  • Super helpful. Get it!

    I used the app during pregnancy for relaxation and on the early stages of labor.
    I was a bit skeptical at first… but all the breathing and relaxation techniques were super helpful. I had a positive ( and quick ) home birth experience.
    I know this product played a big part on my happy day - hope it helps you too! Good luck! 💚💙

  • Thee best. All I used 36 hours of labor !

    The relaxation tracks were so calming. It was so nice to be able to track surges /contractions. I listened to this constantly when I was in the hospital during labor. I was really in a trance and did a natural birth!
