I know, I know. When you’re in the thick of a contraction, “moving around” might sound like the absolute last thing you want to do.
Your brain might be saying “Please, let’s just stay right here and not move a muscle,” but your body? Your body is actually craving that shift.
Whether it’s a gentle hip sway, a deep lunging stretch, or just leaning into your partner, movement is like magic for your labor. It creates the space your baby needs to wiggle down, use gravity to their advantage, and help you find a rhythm that feels less like “pain” and more like “purpose.”
The best part? You don’t have to have a mental library of positions memorized while you’re trying to breathe through a surge. That’s exactly what I’m there for.
I’ve got your back (literally).
When it comes down to it, a doula is your best bet to move through labor with confidence.
