About GentleBirth - The GentleBirth Podcast | Positive Birth Stories, Pregnancy, Birth & Breastfeeding with Midwife Tracy Donegan and Guests
At GentleBirth we believe that a positive birth comes in many forms - and it's always defined by Mom.
We've combined brain science, birth science and technology using the GentleBirth App to help you 'train your brain' for a positive pregnancy, birth and parenting experience.
Each day of your pregnancy and postpartum period the GentleBirth App will recommend simple but effective mindfulness techniques, hypnosis, breathing techniques and affirmations for you and your partner to build confidence and reduce fear.
