Annie’s Blog

Welcome to the birth of my blog

Let me share with you through my blogs what happens when couples attend a Hypnobirthing®course.  Hypnobirthing® has been going for a long time, but you are probably unsure what it entails, or whether to be sceptical- (but have a look at the comments on the testimonial page.) Some of these couples were also sceptical at the beginning  (well their partners were!) but by the end of the first session they were totally convinced, and the results during labour speak for themselves.

Let me allay your fears as you make the journey from being a couple into becoming a family, (or adding to your family). Is there anything you want me to blog about? I appreciate your comments… I am listening…

Philomena.

The film” Philomena” was released to the public on November 1st, starring Judi Dench and Steve Coogan.I adore Judi Dench, so had to go and see it.Such good reviews, plus awards from The Venice Film Festival.What the papers didn’t say is that you need a big pocket full of tissues as it is so poignant….
