When you have 2 clients due 6 days apart and it's holiday time, things get a little wild. I'm trying to be better at social media, so here are some moments I took to send a client videos of movements to do.
She texted me a text saying she was having some consistent abdomen cramping after using her spin bike. It sounded like possible prodromal labor. I advised her to call her Midwife so everyone on the team was on the same page, and educated her on prodromal labor.
I encouraged a bath and some gentle and active hip flexor releases after the biking (lots of hip flexion. Fantastic that she is still biking right now, and the anterior cramping shows that she also needs some balance) - standing release, bird dog, lunge with side bend, forward leaning inversion.
Her cramping went away, and I asked for an updated picture of her posture. Her pelvis is a bit tucked with some slight torso leaning, so I added these:
Two different hip hinges for pelvic balance and strength/length through both front and back. Some hip shifting for inner thigh release and posterior pelvic floor spreading. Some rotation to stretch out the back and prepare the body for movements she might need in labor. And always puppy snuggles.
