Uterus is a muscle. It’s job it is to contract during the #birthing process to move the baby down and out of the body. These contractions press baby’s head down onto the cervix to dilate (open) and efface (thin) until fully open. Your body will have as many contractions as needed to fully open up for your baby to cross your finish line. Train with me!

Posterior #baby is a baby navigating the pathway of the pelvis looking towards the pubic bone. Most babies will rotate during labor to the anterior side of mom’s body to be born facing the sacrum. Very few babies need to be born in a posterior position. Posterior babies may or may not cause back discomfort, contractions come in twos, dilation progress can be very slow, constant pressure on the bladder and instinctively you want to thrust your hips forward to arch your back to create space for the baby to descend in the pelvis. Posterior babies can be born vaginally. Maybe more intense labor and slower progression but it can happen with your willingness, determination and patience from your #birth team. #TrainforBirth workshop helps prepare the body to encourage baby to navigate the pathway in a good #birthing position.

2️⃣ sacs protecting your baby in utero. 1️⃣The outer sac is called the CHORION. 2️⃣The inner sac is called the AMNION. These 2️⃣ sacs provide a protective barrier for your baby during #pregnancy and #birth. Inside the amnion sac is the baby, umbilical cord and amniotic fluid. There is a small amount of fluid in between the two sacs. Sometimes the CHORION sac can break only leaving the AMNION sac still intact protecting your baby. Most of the time both sacs will break during the birthing process. Lastly, if the sacs don’t break…#baby will be born in the water sacs as known as EN CAUL. ‼️It is utmost important to leave the water sacs alone. Let them break when they are intended to break. The birthing process knows the waters should release right before a baby is born. Want to learn more? My #naturalbirth workshop, #TrainforBirth covers water breaking in detail and its importance in the #birthing process. Train with me!

.😰I DON’T WANT TO TEAR!! Tearing during #childbirth is a huge fear! 💯Let’s be real…your body is pushing a watermelon size object out of a bagel size hole!! YES you may tear or NO you may not tear. Tissues tearing depend on many things: 〰️Your body’s #birthing position. 〰️Pushing too hard, too fast 〰️Baby has hand or elbow up by face at birth 〰️Baby position at #birth 〰️Elasticity of the perineum and vaginal tissues 〰️Diet through #pregnancy 〰️Assisted delivery methods 〰️Pelvic floor anatomy 〰️Rushing through birth, not allowing tissues to stretch There are #perineum support measures you can discuss with your provider at time of delivery to help reduce the chances of tearing: ☑️Perineal massage as baby moves down ☑️Warm compress on perineum during crowing ☑️Birthing in water ☑️You birth in the birthing position you want! ☑️Breathing! Short quick pants with contractions to ease baby’s head out slowly to give your perineal tissues time to stretch. 💥I don’t encourage perineal massage the last few weeks of pregnancy. Simply because the person that does it doesn’t know what they are doing! See a professional that is competent in perineal massage skill set if you desire perineum birth prep. Keep in mind…what gets you #pregnant gets you unpregnant! 🍆👉🏼⭕️ Prostaglandins in the semen ripens the cervix and sex prepares the vaginal tissues/perineum for birth!! 💧Walk around no underwear the last few weeks of pregnancy when your vaginal area is producing more moisture to soften the perineal tissues in preparation for birth. 💞Human bodies are beautifully designed to keep our species thriving on this planet!! Trust your body! Trust the birthing process! Train with me! Virtual and in person natural birth workshops👉🏼trainforbirth.com #MomsofTikTok #pregnanttiktok #fyp #birthprep #trainforbirth

Your body is incredibly smart when it comes to birth!! All the squatting, lunging, hinging, twisting, rotating you do during labor is working #baby through the pelvis. When it comes time for baby to cross your finish line, you will instinctively squeeze your knees closer together to crate space at the bottom of the pelvis for baby to emerge from your body. Follow your instincts. Trust your instincts. Surrender to the process. Connect to your incredible #birthing power within to labor your baby across your finish line. Want to learn how?
