Pop That Mumma Birth Box Hypnobirthing Anmeldelser 288

I gave birth to a healthy 9.3lb baby girl vaginally at 4:55am on 22.05.

Birth plan was to home birth with pool, dim lights, oxytocin bubble playlist on in the background.

I had been in fake labour for 4 weeks prior everyday having unpredictable contractions, some were short and long.

Finally Friday came and I was putting my son of 4 years to bed. As soon as I said, 'good night, I love you'. Contractions started and were non stop every 2-3 minutes.

I laboured at home from 7pm for first stage of birth. I asked not to be told how dilated I was and the midwives respected that.

I ended up needing to be transferred to hospital in an ambulance due their concerns around preeclampsia but I was more than happy to do what was needed to keep baby and myself safe. I was totally in the zone and continued with my calm, powerful state throughout the very bouncy wobbly ambulance ride to the delivery suite. It took me some time to figure out what position I wanted to be in.

However I finally found sitting in a upright position on the bed with my legs down, comb in one hand and gas and air in the other comfortable.

Overall my first stage of labour was 7 hours 20 minutes, and the duration of third stage of labour was 37 minutes.

I felt totallybin control, using gas and air to help me breathe through and down in each contraction.

When I got to a point in my head where I felt like I couldn't do it anymore I remembered you saying about transition and even though I did not say one word throughout my labour I was talking to myself the whole time in my head calmly. I remember my down breath wobbling at the end during transition and thinking uh huh! There's the change. Negative thoughts and my downward breath.

My husband was asleep in the chair next to me as I mooed loudly like a cow and I could see noone else was in the room. The next 3 contractions that came I had moved onto my back but to the right and felt my waters break gradually over each contraction. I then thought here we go, we are nearly there. Once I felt like my waters had fully gone I felt I had some time with nothing. I lent over to my husband, grabbed his head and started to stroke his hair, face, hands like I was lapping up the oxytocin I needed for the final part. He seemed confused of what I was doing as again I used no words but he just allowed me to do what I needed to do. Once I felt a contraction coming I took a deep breath in and my body took over. I bared down naturally and I had no pain. Naturally I pushed but it was like I couldn't help it. The pushing part felt great! I was shocked I wasn't feeling pain. I was enjoying it. Like I needed a really big poo.

I had help with the crowing of my babies head and with support she was born in a calm state. I was so happy that I had her vaginally.

I came away with a first degree tear and lived my experience regardless it wasn't what I had planned initially.

Your course and the oxytocin playlist gave me such a safe bubble that no matter what was happening it wasn't popping.

I thank poppy for the energy she brought me through her hypnobirthing course and playlist. It gave me so much power and space.

After birthing at 41 weeks I unfortunately hemorrhaged and lost 3 litres of blood. The midwife who assisted my birth respected my wishes of delay cord clamping leaving the cord to go limp and white however because of the emergency I was put under to stop the bleeding and to sew my tear as I was just into much pain.

I stayed in hospital for 4 days and recovered well from all the above I still am so happy with my birth experience. The staff at Watford general were amazing and even with complications after birth I was totally at peace the entire time.

I am exclusively breastfeeding and baby is thriving. I'm recovering well and again I can not thank poppy again for the hypnobirthing course and oxytocin bubble playlist. It gave me everything I needed ❤️

Thank you for your wonderful course and positivity around birth ❤️
For someone who can’t get a blood test without fainting and gets high blood pressure results because of the feeling it gives me… I knew I had some work to do to get into the right birthing mindset.

I arrived feeling powerful, ready and not scared. I was determined to meet my baby and give them a safe delivery.
Your oxytocin track mixed with a few pop and old school classics got me to 8cm in the birthing pool 💖 elated I got to experience that.

I had an emergency c section ending due to babies position and worrying heart rate. But as I type this, he is safely asleep on my chest and is the greatest gift I could ever have asked for.

I shall continue to recommend your course and mindset ❤️ THANK YOU

After a 3 day induction with my first I was really hoping to go into spontaneous labour and experience a natural unmedicated labour.

After 3 weeks of prodominal labour I started to have more consistent and stronger contractions throughout the day. I was having to stop and breath through them but they were manageable so I thought this can't be it. Ran myself a bath and put on my favourite show to really get the oxytocin going that night. 10.30pm I started to time contractions as it started to ramp up, had my birth comb and oxytocin bubble going and I felt so calm. By 1am we were on our way to the hospital, unfortunately we didn't get a chance to have a water birth as my baby girl came 30mins after we arrived and only 10mins of pushing. It was intense and fast but could not imagine a more perfect birth. I was so frightened going into a natural unmedicated birth with my second but once I started your hypnobirthing tracks I started to feel excited for birth and able to experience it. Truly is incredible and I'm in awe of what the female body can do, thank you!

Hi! Its been 9 months since the birth of my second baby boy, but i still wanted to let you know how grateful I was for your birth box, i had an all natural - no intervention - birth, and my boy was born within an hour after a night of - calmly and presently- breathing through my contractions at home before heading to the hospital. Things slowed down at the hospital and I had to get in the right mindset again, my husband and I listened to some music, did some dancing, and then went on a short walk…keeping things light…Once the contractions ramped up (and o they did!) my body took the lead completely, i ended up roaring my baby out on all fours back in the delivery room, it was incredible, and so powerful. When I felt the ring of fire, I paused and took a deep breath in and out again, i knew we made it….my baby and I we did it, I felt so well prepared and i have to say this was because of listening and watching all your birth preps out here, thank you so much!

Poppy. I just had my second baby, contractions started at 9.30 this morning, got to the hospital at 15.30, was sent to the delivery room immediately (they had a water birth delivery room available) baby was born at 17.22. No gas, no epidural, lucid the whole time. Not going to lie i started feeling like I couldn’t do it right before the head came out. But my husband, the team and most importantly your oxytocin bubble track brought me back and the head was out within 3/4 pushes.
Baby came out in the sac, they called him a lucky baby :)
THANK YOU Poppy.
Your Oxytocin Bubble track played from the very beginning to the very end, i wouldn’t have been able to do it without your support.
Baby boy is getting seen now, but they said he seems to be doing very well, just waiting for them to clear him so i can have him back.
They let me get him out the water myself and then we did skin to skin for the next two and a half hours, delivered the placenta and then cord clamping ❤️

As a first time Mum I wanted to ensure I had all the of tools needed when preparing for the birth of my beautiful daughter Maeve. I have followed Pop That Mumma for the full duration of my pregnancy and used the Oxytocin Bubble Sountrack throughout my 40+5 weeks of pregnancy. I genuinely don’t think I would have had the birth of my dreams if it wasn’t for each of the tracks. I had a wonderful pool birth with the ‘Tracks on a Loop’ through my speaker. My partner knew exactly which tracks I needed throughout as I experienced transition. I highly encourage anyone who is currently pregnant to invest in the Oxytocin Bubble. Without it, I would not have my precious Maeve the way I had envisioned. The breathing techniques truly kept me grounded, centred and in control of working with my surges. Thank you x

I had the oxytocin bubble playing through my whole homebirth!

This was my first baby and something instinctual made me want to birth her at home in my safe place.

We had only just picked up the birthing pool from the hospital last Tuesday evening and she was born on the Thursday morning!

I had my doula, my partner and the midwives with me. But I also had your voice and your soundtrack on the whole time!

I felt safe and empowered and I breathed my baby out without any pain relief. It was wild in a good way and I’m so happy I got the birth I wanted!

We still haven’t left the house 😅🥰♥️

Poppy,
I just wanted to thank you for your birth box course.

With my first daughter, I thought I was well prepared after months of hypnobirthing practice. But the message I took away was that if I relaxed deeply enough, labour wouldn’t really hurt. We were encouraged to avoid the word “pain” altogether and replace it with “sensations.” So when labour turned out to be incredibly painful, I felt shocked and like my hypnobirthing had failed me. I ended up having an epidural, which led to a cascade of interventions, and afterwards I carried a real sense of failure.

For my second birth, I wanted to know I had the strength to do it naturally, and I also wanted to prove to my friends that birth could be positive, as they had all been traumatised by birth stories from others. That’s when I found your course. I loved that you didn’t shy away from the reality of pain, but instead gave practical tools to work through it. Your comparison of labour to an athlete pushing through the intensity of a race really resonated with me. Practising the ice cube challenge and discovering how powerful vocalisation was at redirecting my focus felt like such a breakthrough.

At four days overdue, I was starting to feel pressured into a sweep or induction, which I didn’t want. So I decided to try all the classic labour-starting tricks — a long walk, a massage from my husband, and a romcom in the evening. Halfway through the film, contractions started. I still wasn’t convinced they were real until I stood up at the end of the film and my waters broke!

The contractions weren’t painful yet, so I didn’t want to rush to hospital, but because it was my second baby the midwives told us to come straight in. My husband made me a hot chocolate for the 40-minute drive, and I listened to your oxytocin bubble track the whole way, which kept me calm and relaxed.

We arrived at 2am. My contractions were getting stronger, but I could still breathe through them easily. I’d written in my birth plan that I didn’t want vaginal examinations, and the midwives were amazing — they respected it completely and never asked me if I wanted one. Because I was so calm, they assumed I was still a long way off labour.

Around 4am, I got into the midwife-led unit with the birth pool, and things intensified quickly. We used the TENS machine, and I started deep vocalisations. Together, they worked incredibly well. I felt strong, focused, and completely in control. After only a few intense contractions, my body started pushing. We barely got into the pool before it was time.

I was pushing for a while, but the baby wasn’t fully descending in the water (despite trying lots of positions,) however I never felt panicked. The midwives suggested moving onto the bed, where I went onto all fours, propped up over a pillow. My baby was born two contractions later at 04:57 with my midwives reminding me to keep my body relaxed and pant through the crowning.

It was the most euphoric, empowering, and beautiful experience. I finally had the birth I had always hoped for, and I truly believe your course made the difference. The way you approach pain — honestly, but positively — changed everything for me. My husband even cheered me through contractions like I was an athlete, which helped more than I can explain.

I did use gas and air, as it helped give me a rhythm and focus for my breathing, but honestly It was the vocalisations that were the game changer this time round, I’m still shocked at how well they redirected my focus from the pain.

Thank you again for helping me have such a healing and empowering birth experience.

You, your birth box and soundtracks are incredible!

I began listening to the Birth Box tracks about halfway through my pregnancy with my first baby, and I could tell how it changed the way I perceived labor and delivery. I have always been scared of the entire birth process (especially the thought of an unmedicated labor), but as my labor began, I never once felt incapable or scared or like it was too much for me, thanks to the Birth Box. I was able to have an amazing, unmedicated, uncomplicated labor and delivery with Poppy’s help.

For the majority of my labor, I moved and breathed by myself at home, and when I got to the hospital, I was already 8cm dilated. My 8.5lb baby girl was born less than 10 hours after the start of my labor—definitely very fast and intense! I used the breath techniques and movement that I practiced from the Birth Box, and was able to have the best experience I could’ve imagined. Of course, not everything went exactly to plan and parts of my birth plan seemed to go out the window because of how fast labor happened, but I wouldn’t change a thing about any of it.

I definitely do not think I would have had such a positive experience if I had not prepared my mind and body through hypnobirthing. I will forever recommend Poppy’s Birth Box to anyone I know who is or will be pregnant.

Listening to Poppy Childs Pop that Mumma Birth Box tracks gave me so many tools for my mind and breath and spirit. It got my mind ready where in the beginning of my pregnancy I was fearful of the pain but knew I wanted a physiological birth experience. It’s so worth buying and listening to her tracks.

A short on my birth story.
It was verrryyyy long. 32 hours…woah wild. The hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life and probably will ever do but I’m so happy I stuck to my guns and did what I wanted and followed my gut. Gave birth to a healthy baby boy that was 10 days “late.” They wanted to induce me because of his timing and my age(37). But I got a non stress test(baby’s heartbeat and amniotic levels were good) and I ended up going into labor the same day. My birth was a very empowering experience. I feel proud I had say over my body and baby and listened to your tracks to help get my mind right and change the fear tactics that are set out for so many women. Women are incredible! The body is amazing. And birthing a human is an other worldly experience. And I’m so grateful I was able to do it that way. Even though it was hard I would do it again(haha somehow!)! Plus he is worth everything. ♥️♥️♥️♥️!!

Birth Box gave me tools for my mind, my thoughts, my breath, letting go, creating a plan for things even if they didn’t go the way I wished and gave me the confidence that I could do it and knowledge of what my options were when I gave birth.

Thank you Poppy!!!

Hey! just wanted to write a quick review & thank you for your birthing tracks.
I’m in Aus & found you through the Great Birth Rebellion.
I had a successful home vbac on Saturday May 2nd, at exactly 37 weeks and was able to breathe my Bebe out with minimal ‘damage’ thanks to your breath work. I listened to the oxytocin bubble loop tracks all throughout the hours of early labour until transition. It was so reassuring as I’d become familiar with the tracks.
Many thanks

Wow, after finding Pop That Mumma on tik tok when i was pregnant with baby no.2 in 2023 and being so intrigued, to having just had my first ever spontaneous natural delivery after purchasing your hypnobirthing course in Jan. Thank you thank you thank you. My dream birth would never have been possible without you! Started 1pm....out by 8.51pm (only got parked at hosp at 7pm 😅. Who knew breathing could be so powerful. Thank you for giving me the tools and confidence to manage this 🫶🏽🫶🏽 an extremely grateful mama xo

Thank you, I’m a midwife and I used your playlist for my 3rd trimester and it truly saved me from the edge of a spiral I was about to dive down as I approached birth from the perspective of some one who has been with women and families through so many outcomes, not all lovely.
So thank you so much for bringing me some calm and ultimately lending your strength and belief to me through the tracks which definitely gave my body and mind permission to trust the process, and I had a truly beautiful birth that has healed me greatly 🤍

This was so helpful in the build up an during my unmedicated home birth. I was able to use the breathing techniques and soundtracks to stay grounded even when my baby surprised us with a breech birth.

After following on Instagram and loving the informative videos from Popthatmumma, I decided to treat myself to these hypnobirthing tracks for my second labour. I used them every now and then leading up to my due date but when the day came that I went into labour, I listened to the tracks non stop and found it extremely comforting. I had the extra long birth track playing all the way from home into the hospital - I remember feeling so annoyed when it came to an end and thankfully my husband restarted it. Looking back on my videos now of my first moments with my son, the tracks are still playing in the background and it feels so comforting to hear that voice again. For me the tracks encompassed how I wanted to approach my labour and that meant I felt like I wasn’t alone. Thank you so much! I’ll be recommending to all friends who get pregnant.

I’ve used the Birth Box program for both my babies (2023 & Dec 2025). My first baby was in Italy and my friend recommended the program. I ended up having a walking epidural but was still very calm and impressed the midwives. The second time I wanted to go unmedicated. We had just moved to Hawaii and I decided to use a doula but really she ended up just being there for my husband bc I was in my groove just listening to the tracks & using all the techniques. No epidural this time and baby just naturally started existing! I pushed 2x and the doctor didn’t even have time to get ready or put his gloves on but he gave me the space & just watched bc he was so impressed. He let baby and I do our thing. I’m forever grateful for this program. I remember my first pregnancy initially feeling so isolated (in a new country) and scared for birth to then feeling so confident and empowered. I share this program to every pregnant woman I know. Thank you, Poppy!

Thank you so much!! I used your course for my second baby who is now four weeks old today and it helped me so much! My first baby was an emergency c-section and a traumatic birth, with what felt like no support from my medical team. I was so determined to have a VBAC and a positive experience, I’m so pleased to say I did get that 🙌 I listened to the oxytocin bubble and breathing techniques so much so the midwife’s said it was beautiful watching me. They could tell when I was contracting because I would “go into a breathing trance and be so focused on my breathing” 29 hours of active labor and my baby was born.

The birth had a few scary moments and unplanned turns still but it was so healing to my first birth and the medical team I had this time round we’re incredibly supportive of my wants and needs I felt so relaxed and comfortable with them and of course my husband was an amazing support too.

Thank you for your course, I’m so grateful for it to have gotten me through every stage of my birth 🥰 xx

Highly highly highly recommend!! Using your techniques for my first and it was only 10 hour labour and for my second baby 5 hours 🩷 both labours no fear, no tearing, no stitches and fully embracing and welcoming all of my contractions.
Completely surrendering to Labour and reaffirming myself that I will meet my Babies soon completely calmed me throughout both labours. I truly believe the Breathwork works miracles 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The videos on Understanding labour and how hormones work and what your body does during etc helped remove any worries I had throughout Labour as I knew what was happening in my body not worries and concerned by it!
this time as it was fast I felt myself loosing control of my breathing towards the end but remembered your podcast episode on loosing control and how to bring it back and it worked 🎉
I recommend this Hypnobirthing to every single pregnant person I speak to!

Hypnobirthing really worked. Went to 9 cm without an epidural. Then it was looking like I may need to a repeat c section. I felt really calm. My son wasn’t descending at all despite all our interventions and my water breaking naturally (same thing that happened during my first birth). I felt calm into transition. Used visualization. Loved the Birchbox meditations I used all the time. I feel like I released my fear about my TOLAC. Bummed I didn’t get my VBAC but hey, at 11 lb and lack of descent it wasn’t meant to happen.

After experiencing an emergency cesarean in 2022 and shoulder dystocia during a VBAC in 2024, it was safe to say I had birth trauma that lingered into my most recent pregnancy. I knew that I wanted to prepare myself for any unexpected event that could happen during childbirth.
After reading Poppy’s reviews, I knew I wanted to pursue The Birth Box as my childbirth preparation.
I’m a full-time doctorate student and mom, so I’ll be honest and admit that I wasn’t extremely consistent on listening to the meditations. However, I did enjoy listening to the upbeat positive affirmations during my chaotic morning commutes. I also listened to the other meditations a few times a week, especially in the last few weeks of pregnancy when the nerves were at a high.
The day I went into labor, I really wasn’t sure if I was! I had taken my daughters to dance class and soccer, but had an overall “off” feeling. Fast forward to active labor, my midwives came over and confirmed I was 4-5cm with a -1 station. This is when I decided to play the Oxytocin Bubble with my headphones. Contractions were happening, and although they were intense, they weren’t as painful as I remembered them to be in previous pregnancies. With the help of Poppy’s calm voice, breathing techniques, and labor comb, I mainly rested in Labor Land until my midwife checked me again about an hour labor. I was at 8cm! I couldn’t believe how calm I felt! At this time, my midwife suggested I get ready to go into the birth pool. It wasn’t until immediately before I felt the need to push that transition hit me like a train, however, it was very quick, with baby coming out in 4 minutes/3 contractions! In total, active labor was less than 5 hours!
Overall, the Oxytocin Bubble helped me calmly get to 10cm with only a brief moment of feeling like I couldn’t do it anymore! I also experienced back labor the entire time, which was another fear of mine, but I handled it like a champ! My midwives said this was one of the calmest/quietest births they ever attended!
