True Knot

Did you know true knots occur in about 1-2% of pregnancies?

These knots usually form during early pregnancy when the baby flips around more, but can still form at anytime throughout pregnancy.

In most cases these knots are harmless. The Wharton's jelly provides enough protection around the vessels so they don't become pinched or crushed. This allows the baby to stay well oxygenated and maintain good circulation.

Though it's not impossible, it is rare that the knot will actually become tight enough to cause concern.

If birth was understood as the intimate, spiritual, spontaneous biological event that it is, rather than the medical emergency that our culture has determined it to be, we would live in a radically different world. - Yolanda Norris-Clark

✨Walcher's Position✨
The Walcher's position is an engagement technique that allows contractions to help a baby who is higher up engage into the pelvis.
Enegagement is when the baby settles into the pelvis. 1st babies will usually engage by 38 weeks and any subsequent babies will usually engage before or during early labor. Your baby has to get into the pelvis before it can go through the pelvis.
Walcher's position can be used when labor has already begun but strong, frequent contractions aren't helping the baby move down and engage. It opens the brim of the pelvis from front to back and opens the p***c bone away from the spine. This makes more room for the baby to engage.
