The exaggerated side lying position is great for resting during labor. It is the second position in the “miles circuit“. Partners or support people can also rock the leg that is on the peanut ball back-and-forth to create rhythm of comfort as well as soften the body. This is a go to position if getting an epidural. Switch back-and-forth from the right side to the left side.

The in person class is where the partners begin comprehending the level of support 💪she may need during labor. 🤩We moved through several labor positions so that they can understand in each of those positions how they might be able to be supportive to their partner. The double hip squeeze can alleviate a lot of tension that is in the lower back and hips during labor contractions. Sometimes this is needed for every contraction. And sometimes it’s more sporadic; depending upon the position she is in, the position of baby, and the stage of labor.

Finding out that your baby is breech can feel very stressful. So let me support you during this time. I will walk you through movements to help baby turn on their own. I will walk you through your options. If you choose an ECV, I can come to that appointment and help prep you before and assist during the procedure. And support can also extend to during the cesarean if needed. So if you find yourself in this position, let’s chat!

🤩One advantage of a birth center or home birth is that the newborn exam is done on the bed right next to you so that you can see and hear everything that they’re doing. ➡️At the hospital, I encourage partners to go over to the warmer and be next to their babies.

Jeanette i’m so glad I got to walk this journey with you. I know inductions can be tricky to navigate. You made Strong confident decisions along the way. And you are a great pusher! I loved working with your family.

🤩Lots of double hip squeezes were needed for this birth! And her husband was on it. She was soon pushing and worked with her body amazingly🩷

🌟Learning the side lying release is so beneficial to help release low back and hip tension during, especially the third trimester, of pregnancy. This can help balance the body which can allow baby to find better space and drop into the pelvis. I use this so much with my clients during labor. It has changed the course of a labor many many times. ✅During labor, you want to try to hold this during a contraction. ➡️Sometimes if contractions have spaced out, this can really get things going again.

These are the pre-labor movements that my class is learning to prep the body in the weeks before labor begins. 🌟Doing these movements can help baby get into an optimal position before labor begins, which then could shorten the duration of labor. ✅And if baby is still not quite in the best position, as labor starts, having done these positions before labor begins, will make them easier to do again during labor. ➡️Sign up now for my childbirth education series. There are four sessions online and then you take this session for the in person hands on learning of labor positions and comfort measures. Message me today for any other information.
