Giving a shoutout out to other doulas and educators who rock is important. Love some MamasteFit & The Doulas of Mamaste for their education pieces!!

What labor position should you do? It depends on where a baby is! We want to create more space at the pelvic level that baby is currently navigating during labor. So if baby is still trying to engage, we want to focus on opening the top of the pelvis with wide knee movements. If baby is engaged, and trying to rotate through the pelvis, we went to open the midpelvis with asymmetrical or uneven type movements. If baby is really low, and are starting to push, we want to focus on opening the bottom of the pelvis, with knees in and ankles out. Learn more about labor biomechanics, and how to open the poster lever to create space for baby, and addressing labor stalls in our labor Biomechanics for Bernard tonight at 7:30 PM EST. The webinar will be recorded and available for download. We also breakdown labor biomechanics in all of our online childbirth education courses.
