DOUBLE HIP SQUEEZE is a great coping technique during labor!! During labor your pelvis is being stretched by the pressure of your baby’s head as it moves down your birth canal. (This stretching is normal) As the baby descends and stretches the pelvis, there can be intense pressure on the sacrum. (The triangular bone in the lower back, situated between the two hip bones of the pelvis) The double hip squeeze will relieve the pressure of the stretching and causes the pelvis to flare out slightly. It will provide relief to the mama PLUS give the baby a little extra wiggle room to move down. Win- Win 😉 This comfort measure is used ALOT for mamas who have a posterior (upward) facing baby. It was used almost my (Rachelle) whole entire labor with the first! Posterior babies are no joke. Did you try this?! #childbirth #childbirtheducation #posterior #baby #hypnobirthing laboranddelivery doublehipsqueeze
