Anatomical imagery without any context for who a person is (and with the assumption that every body is the same) — that’s just a microscopic example of how our reproductive health education and medical systems need to grow to provide better outcomes for all of us. (Pt. 2)

Lunging: Widens the side of the pelvis where the leg moves 👉🏼 . It’s particularly 👍🏾 for helping 👶🏼 🔄 and👇🏻 especially when 👶🏾 is engaged (at “0” station in the pelvis). This can be done kneeling or standing. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #pregnancy
Sitting on the toilet: Provides some rest, uses gravity to help 👶🏽👇🏿 and also helps the perineum and pelvic muscles relax. 🍑🙃 Its known for helping labor 📈 with more intense, productive contractions. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #pregnancy
Standing squat: Uses gravity and change in pelvic joints to help 👶🏾 move👇🏼. Can also make contractions more productive and easier to cope with. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #pregnancy
Semi-reclining: ⬇️ pelvic mobility but can provide rest and uses gravity to help bring baby👇🏼and is 👍🏿 for cervical checks and some interventions. It’s 👍🏽 than lying flat, which can ⬇️ blood supply to 👶🏻 and slow contractions. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #pregnancy
Labor Positions: Moving during labor is an evidence-based way to help labor progress. Using gravity, providing comfort, easing pressure, widening the pelvis + more. Listen to your bodies birthers! 👍🏽👏🏽💃🏽 #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #pregnancy
Partners + Infant Feeding: Get hands on! Burp, soothe and put 👶🏽 to sleep. Take care of other 🧒🏾🧒🏻🧒🏽, clean up, etc. Give your partner time to rest, recover from feedings, troubleshoot, get more support, etc. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #postpartum #pregnancy
Partners + Postpartum: Make a plan for healthy meals, help with chores, and lots of rest — 🔑 to a healthy postpartum! Give visiting family and friends tasks to do before they leave: fold 👕, wash 🍽️, bring 🥘, etc. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #postpartum #pregnancy
Partners + Labor + Birth: Your intimacy helps labor progress. No one else can replicate it. Your touch, voice, and words matter. They all help produce hormones like oxytocin, which builds contractions and moves labor on. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #postpartum #pregnancy
Partners + Pregnancy: Talk about what’s supportive. Encouraging words, physical touch, listening, taking care of tasks. How do you support? What support does your partner want? Talk about it often. #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #postpartum #pregnancy
Partners + Starting a Family: Get familiar with the ed and support available. Childbirth ed, newborn classes, pelvic health therapists, doulas, lactation consultants, mental health therapists, acupuncture, chiropractors... #birth #childbirthed #childbirth #postpartum #pregnancy
