1️⃣ She Learned Her Pelvic Anatomy and What It Actually Does During Birth
❌ Most people think the pelvic floor helps push the baby out, but that’s a myth!
✔️ Sam learned that the pelvic floor needs to release (not tighten!) as baby moves down. She prepared it to do exactly that, reducing tension and making birth easier.
2️⃣ She Knew That Movement Was Essential for an Efficient, Unmedicated Birth (Or Even With an Epidural!)
❌ Lying still in labor slows things down and increases intervention risks.
✔️ Sam used movement to keep birth progressing smoothly. She knew that movement isn’t just for unmedicated births, it’s crucial even if you have an epidural.
By using position changes, hip mobility, and upright movement, she helped her baby navigate the pelvis more efficiently—leading to a 6-hour birth!
3️⃣ She Didn’t Assume Her Birth Team Would Protect Her Pelvic Floor—She Took Charge
❌ Most providers don’t prioritize pelvic floor protection. They’re focused on delivering the baby, not reducing your risk for tearing or long-term issues.
✔️ Sam took initiative. She didn’t leave her pelvic floor health up to chance, she followed a plan that prioritized HER body and HER recovery.
4️⃣ She Knew the Common Hospital Birth Barriers (and Made a Plan to Avoid Them)
❌ Purple pushing, pushing too soon, and limited birth positions increase the risk of tearing and interventions.
✔️ Sam planned ahead. She knew how to navigate these barriers, so she could advocate for her body and follow a safer, more effective approach to birth.
5️⃣ She Did Specific Prenatal Exercises to Prepare Her Pelvis, Tailbone, Hips, and Pelvic Floor
❌ Not all exercises are helpful for birth. Some common ones (like Kegels) can actually make things harder.
✔️ Sam followed a targeted movement plan designed for birth. These exercises helped her pelvic floor release instead of resist, creating the space her baby needed to move through easily.
6️⃣ She Followed a Step-by-Step Plan That Made Implementation Easy
❌ Winging it in labor isn’t a strategy. Without a plan, it’s easy to freeze up, forget key strategies, or rely on what the hospital suggests (which isn’t always best for your body).
✔️ Sam followed a simple, proven system. She knew exactly what to do and when, so she could stay confident and in control during birth.
Here's the thing...
Birth doesn’t have to be a guessing game. You can protect your pelvic floor, reduce tearing, and create an easier, more efficient birth experience.
Just like Sam, you need:
✅ The right knowledge (what actually helps vs. what doesn’t)
✅ A strategy for movement and positioning
✅ A plan for navigating common hospital birth barriers
✅ A step-by-step system that makes it all easy to implement
