This cute boy was born at St Paul’s hospital through a very fast VBAC, vaginal delivery after c section. He had to think about many things, just after he was born. Currently rate of successful VBAC is around 70 percent. #mitralatifiyan #downtownmidwiferypractice #bornatsph #vancouvermidwife #vbacsuccess #birth #newborn #pregnant #pregnancy #midwiferyclinic

Repost from @mamastefit When baby is still high or not yet engaged, we want to create more space at the top of the pelvis to help baby enter the pelvis. We can create more space by doing movements that involve really wide knees, or external rotation of the femurs, and then tucking the butt underneath with the rounded back, which creates a posterior pelvic tilt.... These movements open the top of the pelvis more side to side and moves the sacral promontory, or the junction of the lumbar spine and sacrum, out of the way. #mitralatifiyan #downtownmidwiferypractice #vancouver #midwife #midwifery #pregnancypositions #birth #laborpositions #babyengagement #midwifeinvancouver #laborpositions
