I so regret not watching videos like this before my first baby. I trusted my doctors. I had the induction. I got the epidural. I ended in a c section. Pushing on your back makes zero sense. Giving epidurals that actually numb everything and allow no movement makes zero sense. Our medical model for birth is so anti-woman. We opted for a midwife and homebirth with this next baby - praying for a safe VBAC!

I am literally the luckiest woman alive I had my first baby girl on April 8th of this year a little over a month ago, and I felt absolutely zero pain during my entire pregnancy and my labor. I thought I was having no contractions but when I went into the hospital to be induced the nurse told me that I was having contractions very often. I was shocked because I didn't feel anything. then after the doctor broke my water and I dilated to 10 cm very fast and I was having the contractions every 2 minutes because the monitor showed that I still could not feel a single thing. I pushed out my baby Kylie absolutely pain-free. she is my miracle story 💖💖💖

Getting hospital personnel cooperate and “approve” is harder than the labor. It’s all about what’s convenient for THEM.

Bridget, I did all of these positions in the days leading up to and during labor! My labor was so fast (four hours), and because I felt weightless in the birth pool, I was able to switch into all of these positions with the help of my husband. I pushed my 10lb baby out in ONE PUSH. Thank you for this video! I think all that movement and changing from leaning forward knees together, to lunges, to lunges on my side, all really helped rotate and move my baby down super fast.

I am 40 weeks and 4 days with my first and I have been watching your videos for months now. I cannot thank you enough for the knowledge you share and how you have empowered so many of us to understand our bodies better and work WITH it, rather than just have pregnancy and delivery “happen” to us. You are a huge reason I made the final decision to go all natural. Thank you from a younger mom <3

Watched this a few times and picked one or two from each level to write down and be familiar with. Did them one at a time for one or two waves top to bottom- transition to birth was 30min and a few pushes with no tearing, no bruising to baby, and this despite him being sunny side 🙌🙏

Me: Switches to my Birth Plan notes and jots down BLT—Be Open, Lean Forward, Trust Gravity. Immediately wants to eat a BLT. Excitedly realizes I have all the ingredients. Decides that will be lunch tomorrow.<br><br>Oh yeah this is also super helpful cuz I’m 38 weeks pregnant and determined to not labour on my back like with my first two (gotta advocate to my hospital care providers!)

Wow these positions make so much sense! I went into my first labor blind and could not understand why during contractions I felt the urge to keep one leg up (like in many of these positions). I simply could not put my leg down because the pain felt worse. Looking back I can’t believe my body just knew what to do!

Would be so helpful if you demonstrated everything and put captions with minutes in the video for each new position 🙏
