Tracy’s second pregnancy surprises her by being much more challenging than the first. Toward the end of pregnancy, baby #2 is persistently transverse (or sideways) and her OB recommends manually turning the baby. Tracy isn’t fond of that idea, so she does some research and goes to a chiropractor who specializes in helping with this using the Webster technique. Baby successfully flips and Tracy’s able to have the vaginal birth she wanted. However, she needs to put the self-advocacy skills she learned in birth class to good use when the hospital staff starts pressuring her for interventions she didn’t want due to holiday overcrowding and not due to medical necessity.
