Is your baby in a posterior position? here are some Spinning Babies techniques to help encourage baby to rotate over to an anterior position.
⭐️Forward-Leaning Inversion
Purpose: Creates space in the lower uterus and helps baby move out of the pelvis temporarily to reposition.
How: Kneel on the edge of a couch or bed. Slowly lower your hands to the floor so your hips are higher than your head. Keep your arms, head, and neck relaxed. Hold for 3 slow breathes, then come back up slowly
Tip: Try once when you wake up and again before bed. Follow with pelvic tilts or brisk walking. *Avoid if you have high blood pressure, dizziness, or reflux.
⭐️Side-Lying Release
Purpose: Releases tension in the pelvic muscles and ligaments, allowing baby to rotate.
How: Lie on a firm surface on your left side. Bottom leg bent, top leg hanging off the edge, relaxed. Have someone stabilize your hip to keep alignment. Relax in this position for 3–5 minutes. Repeat on the other side.
⭐️Modified Cat-Cow
Purpose: Gently moves the pelvis to make space and encourage baby to shift.
How: Get on hands and knees in tabletop position. Inhale and gently arch your back upward like a cat, tucking the tailbone. Exhale and return to a neutral, straight back (do not drop the belly low). Repeat for 10–20 slow reps.
⭐️Pelvic Tilts
Purpose: Mobilize pelvis and encourage baby to drop into a better position.
How: Sit on the ball with feet flat on the floor. Do gentle pelvic circles, figure 8s, and rocking. Spend 10–15 minutes per session.
⭐️HIP DIPS
Exaggerated figure 8 movements to make room in the pelvis for the baby to rotate from the right to the left, and from posterior to anterior (by reducing tightness in back preventing baby’s ability to rotate).
How: Lean over counter with legs somewhat straight but relaxed and back at a flat 90 degree angle. Lift one hip while lowering the other. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1556123808396868

Mama Monday: The placenta is the only organ your body creates and then lets go of. It connects you and your baby, delivering oxygen and nutrients while removing waste. It even produces hormones to sustain pregnancy and prepare your body for milk production. Once its job is done, your body gently releases it after birth, a reminder of how powerful your system truly is.

Many things are happening in the birth room as someone is getting close to meeting their baby. Taking vitals, listening to the baby's heart rate, charting, making sure the birth tub is the right temperature, yet the room is quiet and peaceful, allowing space for labor to happen without interruption.

These are just a few ideas to help soothe a colicky baby. Before trying these techniques, always remember to make sure baby has been fed, has a clean diaper, and is not too hot or cold. Colic is a series of symptoms and a general diagnosis. Bodywork such as chiropractic care and cranial sacral therapy is highly recommended to get to the root cause of the fussiness.

Mama Monday: Studies show that gray matter actually changes during pregnancy, enhancing emotional bonding and empathy but sometimes causing forgetfulness. “Pregnancy brain” is your body’s way of re-prioritizing focus: less multitasking, more connection. So next time you blank on where your phone is, remember, it’s biology, not just baby brain!

A common waterbirth question is, "how does the baby not drown in the water?" The baby has been living in amniotic fluid for months. When born into the water, this is a smooth transition from water to water. The baby is still getting the oxygen that they need from the placenta. When the baby comes of out the water, that signals them to starting breathing oxygen on their own.
