Episode 58: Magic Moves for Labor

Gina and Roxanne delve into the 'magic moves' during labor, explaining how different positions can significantly progress labor or address stalls. The discussion covers the importance of utilizing specific movements based on the baby's position within the pelvis, including moves that can create more space at the pelvis's top (inlet), middle (mid pelvis), and bottom (outlet) to facilitate labor progression. They also discuss alternatives for when certain moves might not be suitable or comfortable, such as the Walcher's, side lying release, and knees in, ankles out maneuvers. Both hosts share their personal and professional perspectives on these magic moves.
