## What is iHypnoBirth?

iHypnobirth has helped 100,000+ women around the globe have a calm, positive and empowered birth and it can help you. iHypnobirth has been designed for pregnant women looking to create a positive and empowered state of mind both before and during the birth of your babies. iHypnobirth Lite contains positive birth affirmations created specifically for labour and birth and now includes relaxing music for birth. 

iHypnobirth Lite was created by Psychologist & hypnatal practitioner Dr Alex McKay, hypnatal & NLP qualified Charlotte Maslen MA HONs. 

With five children between them they have first-hand experience of the power that self-hypnosis and positive affirmations have on pregnancy and birth. They believe that women deserve positive, empowered birth experiences and have created this app to equip them with the skills to achieve this. 

The effectiveness of hypnosis and relaxation on positive birth outcomes (shorter labour, lower rates of medical intervention, less medication use) is well documented in a number of research studies. 

iHypnobirth Lite will teach you that birth does not have to be full of fear, instead the positive affirmations and relaxing music will equip you with tools that can create a positive birthing experience, helping you to prepare both physically and emotionally. 

By listening to the relaxation regularly during pregnancy, this app will enable you to practice deep relaxation, effective breathing, and positive visualisations to help you to have a calm, controlled, and empowered birth experience. If you learn to condition your body now it will be much easier to slip into a relaxed state during your labour and birth - and even after your baby is born these techniques will serve you well.

## Key features

- Positive birth affirmations
- Relaxing music for birth

### 1/5 — Don’t upgrade!!!! You can’t access anything extra!!!

*2019-12-04*

I paid for the upgrade (after downloading the app for free) and over a week later I still am not able to access any of the upgraded content so
I have paid for nothing! I have contacted the app team via the email on the app twice and I have not heard anything about getting access to the extra content!! Bunch of con artists please don’t waste your money you won’t get anything extra!!

**Developer response:** The team has responded to your message and we are in the process of resolving the issues you are having. The upgrade is the paid version so it opens as a separate app which sometimes leads to confusion. 

Rest assured this app is not a con. It has been created with content produced by psychologists and health professionals and it has helped thousands of women around the globe to experience a calm and empowered birth. 

We will work with you to fix the issue you are having.

### 5/5 — Great update

*2019-04-04*

Love the new update-it’s brill. Really helpful tracks and works much better than the last version.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. We have completely updated this version to offer a comprehensive mindfulness and hypnosis program that enables a calm, empowered, postive birth experience.

### 3/5 — Don’t upgrade!

*2018-11-06*

The upgrade is exactly the same as the free version, says the same things apart from a few extra sentences. The free app isn’t bad, I listen to it to relax when in bath but I regret paying for the upgrade.

**Developer response:** The free iHypnobirth-Lite version includes two 3 hypnosis audios. The paid iHypnobirth version includes 4 hypnosis audios, two mindfulness audios, calming music and sounds and articles. We hope you enjoy the updated version with the content.
