I’m Tiffany, the person behind HypMother, so great to have you here.
Im an English Expat living in Stockholm with my Swedish partner and Little boy, Lowen. <br>After a career of over 15 years in fashion and retail, I had a kid… and my world shifted/turned upside-down and inside out! Going into any big life experience away from home is daunting, but giving birth may be the most daunting of all, and ultimately that’s what led me to creating HypMother. 

I decided to study hypnobirthing after discovering some of its techniques during my first pregnancy with my Son in 2017/18. Up until that point I can honestly say I avoided all things relating to birth and pregnancy, discovering when I actually fell pregnant, how truly terrified I was of the process of bringing a human into the world. 

The tools of hypnobirthing enabled me to have a calm and ultimately very positive experience in my labour and delivery of Lowen. Though it certainly wasn’t a ‘perfect’ birth, I am able to look back at it and feel proud of how i handled the expected and unexpected. This is an experience i believe all women can achieve when given the support, guidance and inspiration to to take control of their minds, prepare their bodies and force fear out the door. 

Having my little boy was a bigger marker in my life than i imagined it would be, as it is for most Mums with their first child. The biggest realisation for me was how mentally challenging the whole process was, and how unprepared i was in my mind for this huge shift in my body, life and expectations. 

After Lowen arrived, and the honeymoon (sleepy newborn!) stage was over, motherhood hit me like a BUS! My gosh it was hard and my gosh did I need my hypnobirthing tools more than ever. That’s the best thing about hypnobirthing, its tools for life!

Training with the Calm birth school was an easy choice. What I craved most when i became pregnant was community and sisterhood. My friends and family were far away and I was living in a county that was not english speaking, something that was exciting and challenging when i was not about to go through a huge life event, but truly anxiety inducing when i was on the cusp of something i really was terrified of. The calm birth school and community, is more than a hypnobirthing school, but a sisterhood of women supporting women and I cant wait to share that love with other women looking for the same.
