Trish guides you through practical, nurse-tested movements inspired by Spinning Babies to help you progress through labor naturally. Learn essential techniques like the jiggle, forward-leaning inversion, sideline release, lateral jiggle, shake the apples, and a tiny sacral nudge. Trish offers step-by-step instructions, partner cues, and advice on when to seek medical guidance. This episode empowers you with knowledge and tools to stay calm and proactive during labor, helping you avoid unnecessary interventions and achieve a more positive birth experience. Practice these moves with your support person and gain confidence for your big day!

As always, if you have any high risk diagnoses or questions get confirmation from your provider first.
