Modern medicine seems to have made so many advances in so many areas… yet far too many birthers still experience birth-related injuries or are left with unwanted symptoms after birth, like incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Good news: biomechanics may not be the be-all-end-all, but their consideration definitely has benefits. In this presentation, you’ll have the opportunity to really get to know the pelvis, and learn how to help birthers choose and use different positions at different times throughout labour. As an added bonus, you’ll also learn how to promote pelvic floor wellness in a birthing person.
Learning Objectives:
1. Define the most prominent bony landmarks of the pelvis.
2. Describe the current research findings surrounding maternal positions for labour and birth.
3. Identify ways to help birthers to choose and use different positions in labour depending on the stage of labour.
