We are joined by Brittany Sharpe McCollum of Blossoming Bellies Birth to dive deep into bias around pelvis shape, pelvic biomechanics & dynamics, and the relationship between the pelvis & movement during birth.
Brittany discusses the bias and racism inherent in classifying pelvic shapes as a predictor of labor outcomes.
She shares her definition for truly "optimal" fetal positioning, and what we can do to support it, without getting in the weeds about what *could* happen.
Finally, Brittany talks through her "5-4-3" guideline for encouraging movement and labor progress.
Don't miss the giveaway this week for Brittany's upcoming full day Creating Spaces workshop: happening over in our facebook group!!
