SCHEDULE YOUR FREE CONSULTATIONHere’s a recap of the Action Items I’d love you to be focusing on between 16-20 weeks of pregnancy. Of course, you’ll continue working with the healthy diet and hydration goals we discussed last month.
One of the skills that will help you the most in labor is RELAXATION. Practicing effective relaxation strategies in labor will help you have the needed stamina, focus and endurance to birth without medication. More people “poop out” in labor than “pain out” in labor. Exhaustion in labor is a much much bigger challenge than physical pain. Begin learning relaxation strategies now. We recommend the free app: Insight Timer. Search by topics and length of time you have available to practice. My favorite relaxation topic is SLEEP & Relaxation.
Nutrition, Hydration and Mental Prepareness are important, but PHYSICAL prepareness is essential for birth. This is the time to begin preparing your body and your baby for birth.
I recommend adding a yoga class (or 2) to your weekly schedule. Enroll in the Spinning Babies subscription for a short daily exercise you can do to prepare for birth.
