I’m amazed by this every-time. It’s important to know this so you can make small adjustments.
At Bumps in Bloom we teach 3 breathing techniques to help you better cope with each stage of labour. All of which we teach you to do through a nice relaxed jaw to help relax and release the pelvic floor.
But here’s the reassuring part:
✨ Relaxing your jaw by breathing deeply, sighing out, gently opening your mouth, even making low, open sounds can help your pelvic floor relax too!
Midwives often say, “Loose lips, loose hips.” It’s not just a saying, it’s grounded in physiology.
🤍 So if you're preparing for birth, start practicing softening your jaw and releasing tension. Your body is beautifully interconnected, and sometimes, the smallest shifts (like relaxing your face) can make a big difference!! ❤️
