Pregnancy & Birth Made Easy
Freedom in Labor: The Essential Birthing Positions You Need to Know
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we’re talking all about one of my favorite topics—freedom of movement during labor! I’m diving into why it’s so important to listen to your body and move in ways that feel good as you work through contractions. From squatting to hands-and-knees to standing and swaying, we’ll explore how different positions can make a big difference in your comfort and your baby’s progress. Spoiler: lying on your back isn’t your only option—and it’s definitely not the best one for everyone. I’m also sharing practical tips and exercises to help you prepare, plus how to talk to your provider ahead of time so your birth preferences are respected. You were made to move, mama!
