Hi Pernille, great article.
I am a HypnoBirthing practitioner in Brisbane and do personally feel an empowered birth is the most important goal for a women. I teach my couples that pain free is not guaranteed, but having the ability to trust that their body can do this, and they can do this is in my mind so much more important.
When women have the confidence to birth instead of fear about the unknown, concerns about pain and long labours become irrelevant as that power and focus comes from within.
Birth is such an adventure when each women remembers, or rediscovers her natural ability to birth.
Keep up the great inspiring education!
Cheers, Bree

Great post, Pernille. I agree so much with what you have said and it is such a difficult thing I think, for birthworkers to help women prepare appropriately. But addressing fear is one of the major issues. Thanks for a good read.

Comment on Partner first – then parent by Anne Endres

Thank you for posting Pernille:).
As parents we have the responsibility to nourish our children,but to do this we need to look after ourselves as well. Personally I often feel that there is to much emphasis on “guilt” as soon as we even think of becoming pregnant, are pregnant, give birth, nourish our babies and parent. Maybe we need to change the way we think, act with love , but definitly not act with the goal of self-destruction. I am pro attachment parenting, but I am also pro women and families to care for themselves to be able to care for each other.
