This is a great post on OP babies. I love how this midwife takes a fairly neutral position on this position. 🙂 She explains how it works and some tips on how to deal with it. I especially loved this:
- Reinforce the woman’s trust in her body and baby to birth.
- Discuss the possibility that her labour may be different (not better or worse) and might not fit general expectations about labour patterns/progress.
Hormones released in men during and after birth help them become better fathers!
Wonderful Pushing Link, this is also from the same Midwife’s blog with the OP post above. I just found her blog and have enjoyed catching up on all her posts.
The F-Word and Natural Childbirth – no, not THAT f word.
Finally – Creating your Birth Circle was a nice post about choosing carefully those who join you during your birth time! It fits nicely with my guest post on Three Types of Care Providers
