So I’m logged into my husband’s account, but I’m thinking this can really help prevent pelvic prolapse too. I’m sure it can’t be promised, but in my mind this would help so much. I really hope to breath out my next baby and may apply this and some other things. With my first, I ended up getting 2 prolapses which I’ll probably always have.
@@Iiiixoo this is still absolutely possible with an epidural! you’ll simply need additional help to position and support your legs this way from someone like your doula, nurse, midwife, partner, etc…
@@movewithDrChris thank u so much :) do I do the knees in position while laying on my back or on my side? Or do I have to kneel on all fours…just a bit panicky as I’m 3 days overdue
@@Iiiixoo you’re welcome! it can be applied to any position you choose to birth in. If you choose the sidelying position, note that it will just be your top leg that will have your knee in and foot out, but all other positions you’ll do both legs knees in feet out.
@@Cardiacoutput so happy you found this info helpful! When pushing on your back you will likely be more in a flat position but I recommend propping towel rolls on each side of your sacrum so that there is space for your sacrum and tailbone to extend out of the way as baby passes though. This isn’t often common knowledge by birthing staff, esp when birthing in hospitals, so you’ll often have to ask for that but it’s such a helpful way to position yourself more optimally if you choose to give birth on your back

I wish there was a way to guarantee that, too! And you are so right that these tips help dec the risk of prolapse occurring/worsening
Thank you so much ❤
you're welcome! I'm glad you found the info in this video to be helpful for you
How can I do the “knees in, feet out” position if I had an epidural?

Can u show? Knocking knee position
@@tinajacob9007 I don’t have a picture to share, but what it means is positioning knees closer together and feet wider apart = knock knee position
Very helpful ❤
so happy to hear that!
Very helpful! Do you arch your back if you're in a supine position or do you try to keep the back flat on the bed?

Hi! So I breathe into my belly and push the air of the belly out as I breathe out imagining I breathe out of my vagina? Is that right?
@@barborademes3714 yes breathing in to expand the abdomen and pelvic floor and then keeping the pelvic floor lengthening while you exhale and push
@@movewithDrChris great, thank you!!!
