Did you know you can actually be comfortable during pregnancy, and actively take steps prenatally and throughout labor to make your birth simpler and more efficient?! This class teaches proven techniques for all bodies, babies, and births, whether you’re planning a home birth, a hospital delivery, or even a scheduled cesarean. 

What is Spinning Babies®?
Spinning Babies® is focused on baby positioning and believes fetal positions aren’t random. Through Balance, Movement & Gravity, you can help create more room in the uterus and pelvis by balancing muscles and soft tissues.

Key Topics Include:

• Physiological and psychological comfort measures to help you stay comfortable and cope throughout pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum

• How to be an active and engaged support partner

• How small adjustments in pregnancy can have a big impact on labor and birth

• Specific body movements and stretches to restore body balance

• Why “head down” doesn’t tell the whole story of baby’s position

• Fascial release and massage

• The five senses and how they relate to birth

• Hands on techniques to provide physical support through all the stages of labor

• How to determine your baby’s position through belly mapping

• The benefits of using physiology over force during pregnancy, labor and birth.

• How to overcome common discomforts like heartburn, lower back and sciatic pain, pubic synthesis pain, round ligament pain.

• Different pushing positions that protect your perineum and prioritize physiology and gravity.

BONUS: You will get handouts and exclusive access to a Google Classroom full of informative, evidence-based resources to pack into your hospital bag.
