Birth Positions For Easier Labor With Optimal Maternal Positioning

Optimal Maternal Positioning – OMP, can prepare your body for birth and an easier labor. Most mothers learn how to be mentally prepared for labor and delivery, but what happens when things don’t go according to plan? This is why a mother must prepare physically during her pregnancy.

MomLifeTV joins Ginny Phang-Davey from iBirth Professionals as we discuss OMP, for an easy delivery and how you can have the birth experience you desire. Ginny shares how she found her calling to the birthing world practicing evidence based care. In her journey from being a single mom to becoming doula, she learned to read women’s bodies to understand how to know what’s happening during labor and birth.

What is Optimal Maternal Positioning?

OMP techniques, exercises and positions create space in the pelvis for an easier, shorter, more relaxed birth. Having a baby pass through the pelvis is like putting a key through a keyhole. If the keyhole is not aligned, there will be problems with insertion, turning the key or even removing it. This is where ‘Optimal Maternal Positioning’ (OMP) comes in. Instead of focusing on the position of the key (Optimal Fetal Positioning focuses on the position of the baby), OMP focuses on creating space within the keyhole (Pelvis).

Simply having a good birth experience can be challenging these days. Prepare for your upcoming birth using Optimal Maternal Positioning through daily exercises and birth positions that can support alignment for you and your baby.
