How do you imagine giving birth?

Close your eyes for a few moments and think about the first image that comes to mind when you imagine the day of your baby's birth. Then answer, without thinking too much:

What do you feel when you think about giving birth?

If you had to choose three words to describe giving birth, what would they be?

Where do you think those ideas came from?

What worries you the most right now?

And what gives you confidence?

There are no right or wrong answers. The aim of this exercise is simply to help you recognise the beliefs, expectations and emotions you are carrying with you into birth. Knowing what they are is the first step towards understanding them and, if necessary, transforming them.
