  • *** at the end I say "30 second" -to clarify, it's minutes 😂 my bad! You can technically do this at any point in your pregnancy but bump it up starting around 36 weeks! Xo
    Have you been told that your baby is high or needs to engage more in your pelvis?! STRESSFUL right?! No stress! I’m going to talk you through what your doctor or midwife means when they say the baby isn’t engaged yet, when it matters and show you some things you can be doing during pregnancy and then especially in labor to help get your baby down, lower, more engaged in the birth canal! You know what that likely means? A shorter labor! Hollaaaaa! Now that’s what I’m talking about!

  • @heatherbaldwin2099

    Had my baby two days ago, found movement really helpful for progressing labour. I was almost 12 hours into early labour, having 1 min contractions about 2 min apart for almost that whole time, and felt like things had started to stall and baby might need help to slip better into the pelvis. I tried the abdominal lift and tuck through 10 contractions (against the wall, while doing hip circles), then did the Three Balances from Spinning Babies (the jiggle between contractions, forward leaning inversions and side lying release through three contractions each). Literally a minute or two after getting up from the side lying release my waters broke. Things went quickly from there and I had my baby less than 4 hours later ♥ A challenging and intense but medication free and incredibly positive birth experience!

    I was at 7cm stalled off and on for 12!!!hrs WITH pitocin and no epidural. A nurse suggested we do some floor exercises and getting on the ball. I 100% credit her with getting labor going and helping me avoid a csection (my water was broken for 22 hrs when I finally started pushing). I was surprised when she said most her clients weren't willing to try this stuff so she didn't get to use it that often.

      Just know that in less common cases, there is a reason for baby not descending that can't be helped by movement, such as a short umbilical cord. Do the best you can with the knowledge you have at the time and be at peace over things you didn't know.

    This video helped me go into labor the day I watched it! I had been having strong contractions for 3 weeks off and on. I felt the baby was low, but not really in a good birth position. I borrowed an exercise ball and within 30 mins, my contractions got slightly stronger. Tried the decline position and they got even stronger, decided labor was for real after these strong contractions and 2 hrs later baby was born! If I had stayed pregnant much longer, I probably would have complications due to his size. He was 10lbs 2oz 15.5” head and accomplished birth with no pain meds.
    Update: I forgot to add in that I also had a few double contractions after they started getting stronger! I don’t remember if it was this video or another of yours that told what that meant, but that confirmed that baby wasn’t positioned correctly. So then I decided to try the declined position.

    Sarah, I'm a first time mom. My babys 10 months now through Gods grace. I was in labor for 23 hours because my baby had not dropped even though my water broke and i was ruptured for a good 20 hours. At 8 cm dilated and i believe 100% effaced, my OB and I decided to give the epidural a try to see if my body relaxed and baby came down. Thank God it worked because I would have gotten a C-section otherwise. Just thought I'd share my experience with all you ladies who are just as nervous as I was about getting an epi.

      @@Rooskwa I was 38 weeks and experiencing contractions. I only dilated to 3 cm and contractions stopped. My OB was out of town so I ended with a doctor who basically did the opposite of everything I wanted. She decided to break my water and gave me and emergency c section. When they removed my son he inhaled amniotic fluid and ended up in NICU for a week. It was just a nightmare. Super disorganized, no one could give me a straight answer when I asked questions.

      @@Rooskwa They never gave me a clear answer as to why my water was broken. They said it would help my dilate further. But the c section was due to the contractions being so severe that my sons life was in danger of his little head being squeezed and that causes brain damage.
      Thank you. My son is happy and healthy now. And my new OB is the best. She's 100% transparent.

    So glad you recommend chiropractic during pregnancy. I had so many people tell me that it was normal to have hip pain while you were pregnant. I didn't want to trouble anyone and just bore with horrible hip pain. I didn't realize my hips were tilted backwards and it made my baby get stuck at the end of my labor. Head out shoulders stuck. Birth assistant had to basically body slam my stomach to get the baby out.

    Hey mamas!
    I'm a July 2020 mama myself, due in 6 days with a VBAC. Wishing you all a speedy and safe delivery filled with positivity 🙏🙌
    My first baby and C-section was 7 years ago and I'm pretty nervous. haha!
    Last labour was 40 hours, only recently found out it was failure to progress due to baby being OP, back to back, and water breaking BEFORE I even has a single contraction.
    Since then, I've heard this happening to other mamas but was never encouraged to move at all through labour - just wish I'd know then what I know now!
    Although, saying that, I've been told for a few weeks baby is head down and entered 40 weeks yesterday with baby still high... and have been living on my birth ball, cleaning the house and walking through woodland and.... nothing. haha!
    Just binging these videos whilst bouncing away on the ball and really hope you're all having better luck so far 😘❤️❤️

      Update for anyone interested: I went to 40+1. Baby never noticeably dropped, woke at 5am with waters broken. Had period like cramps steadily from then, which then built up to stronger and stronger and closer together until I gave birth around midnight. Midwife checked me around 11am, and I was 3-4cm, and it just steadily got stronger. Unfortunately baby got stuck in and out for 2.5hours. A quick episiotomy and baby came out the next surge! I’m now 37weeks pregnant again and laughing at being in the same bored and fed up stage as last time!
