Congratulations on your pregnancy journey!
As a birth and postpartum doula, I understand that this is a special time filled with excitement, anticipation, and maybe a touch of nervousness.
As a bodyworker, I know that birth is physical, and being in your body will support you on your journey to labor. This led me to become a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner and offer prenatal bodywork.
What is Spinning Babies®?
Spinning Babies® is a unique approach to childbirth preparation focusing on optimal fetal positioning for a smoother, more comfortable birthing experience.
Developed by midwife Gail Tully, the method blends modern science with traditional wisdom to help mothers and babies achieve better birth outcomes. This approach uses physiology-based techniques that balance each person’s body rotation and descent through the pelvis.
Why Choose Spinning Babies®
Aware Practitioner Services? When it comes to childbirth, knowledge is power, and understanding your body's needs is key to achieving your desired birth.
As a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner, I have been specially trained to understand the intricacies of fetal positioning and how it impacts the birthing process. By working with me, you'll gain valuable insights and techniques to help your baby find the best position for birth.
"BALANCE BEFORE FORCE”
"I can’t tell you how much I appreciate both of you! You saved our labor and delivery experience, and everything turned out exactly how I had hoped for. From being well-informed as I checked into the hospital on all the procedures and options, to pain management and moving through labor, and finding the strength to push for 4-5 hours, the warmth and encouragement I felt from both of you throughout really shaped my experience. I’m absolutely certain that without both of you, we would have had a very different experience and would not have had a successful VBAC.
Heather, I’m not sure if Ronit mentioned this, but we were already discussing the vacuum and C-section option with Dr. Abu as she was concerned about the progress at 4 hours. Ronit immediately insisted that we change to a sideways position, which really helped me push the baby through!"
