The Better Way to Prep for Birth

YES—there are better ways to birth than flat on your back! That position might be common, but it’s not always the most effective or comfortable. Here are some birth positions that can make a big difference: ✨Hands & knees: opens the pelvis and relieves back pressure ✨Side-lying: great for rest, control, and reducing tearing ✨Squatting: uses gravity to help baby descend ✨Kneeling or lunging: helps baby rotate and engage better ✨Standing or leaning forward: allows movement and pelvic freedom Why these positions are better: ✅They use gravity to help baby move down ✅They give your pelvis more room to open ✅They reduce pressure on your tailbone and perineum ✅You stay more in tune with your body’s rhythm Birth doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. You have options—and your body was made to move through them. Let’s talk about what positions might work best for you! Drop your questions or share what worked for you below. 👇🏼
