Today, Krystle and Amy are diving into different laboring positions to utilize during labor and delivery! There is still a big misconception about movement during the laboring process, however, we know from the research that utilizing several positions can help your baby descend during the labor process. Our goal during this episode is to educate you on the options available AND to help you and your baby! We are leaving a link in the show notes to our second most downloaded resource from our site EVER - our Essential Guide to Laboring Positions FREEBIE! Use that guide to follow along with today’s episode, but be sure to look through it fully because there is so much more information in the guide than we could possibly go over in one podcast episode. It’s also a great tool to print off and bring with you to the hospital! We wish we had had this information before having our first babies, so we hope you find this information helpful and empowering!
If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @expectingandempowered. As we like to say, knowledge is power, and we just really want to give more people the information that they may need on their childbirth journey!
