Alternative Birth Positions ~
Would an elephant deliver on her back? NO! So why are we humans told to get in a bed on our backs to welcome our little ones?
I remember taking the Dancing For Birth training years ago. It’s really wonderful! If our community would support dancing, I’d offer the classes again. The DFB founder, Stephanie, talked about standing for delivery – allowing gravity to aid in moving bebe down. This is all true.
Side note…. bebe is going to move down regardless. Well, maybe not if you stand on your head.
There are loads of web pages that offer suggestions for laboring & birth. I found this one on Fit Pregnancy – https://www.fitpregnancy.com/pregnancy/labor-delivery/position-statement. They talk pros & cons. Interesting.
