Honestly, how cool are our bodies and their ability to shift, make space and change to allow a baby to pass through!
In this image, you’re seeing the Rhombus of Michaelis- a space on the lower back that expands as your baby descends.
👀 When we see this…we know baby is moving down, deep into the pelvis, toward the pelvic outlet.
This is why movement and positioning matters and why birth isn’t just about “waiting to dilate.” 💁🏽♀️
If you want to actually understand what your body is doing in labour and how your baby has to complete their cardinal movements (and how to support it), my next OMP Birth Education Course is on May 9.
This is where we connect the dots…so you’re not relying on someone else to tell you if you’re “progressing.” 😎
