BIRTH PREP WEEK 2
Week 2: Create Space for Birth
This week, you'll learn how different movements influence the shape of your pelvis and create more space for your baby during labor. We'll focus on improving pelvic mobility while introducing the concepts of the pelvic inlet and pelvic outlet, helping you better understand how your body is designed to move during birth.
