Lift and Tuck for Back Labour!

I have had three back labours, and every time I get pregnant I hope to God that I will not have a posterior baby again...but I do without fail. I do all the tricks that I know of; get chiropractic adjustments, crawl around my house on all fours, and try to sit up straight against really hard chairs. But no..my babes always turn right side up after I am 10 cm dilated, and after i have endured the dreaded back labour. The pain of back labour is awful...even terrible, and it can prompt many women into having epidurals. The other day  I found this site and its looks very promising...it gives me goosebumps to think that women who have posterior babies may have another option!

  1. Good reads Amanda. I've heard about doing this with a partner to relieve back pain during pregnancy but not for labour.
    I didn't know you were a doula. I'll be checking out your page more often.
