    I know there is uterine obliquity where the Rt side of the uterus can have a steeper angle and the left side can have a more curved angle which helps baby in LOA have the flexed neck/ chin tucked position. Can you speak more about the assymnetries of the pelvis you mentioned? Thanks.

  2. Is the inversion exercises only for babies with overlapping pelvic brim?

    1. Lynn Schulte says:

      No the inversion can be for any position and even for centered babies, if I have worked on the uterine ligaments and found one side tighter than the other and baby’s head is centered I’ll still do an inversion to just help balance out the ligaments.

    When does a baby start positioning themselves for labor? When should we begin feeling for this on our clients?

    1. Lynn Schulte says:

      It really varies. Some babies heads are down early and some don’t turn down until 30+ weeks but our goal is to help get it down by 36 wks as the feeling is the baby starts getting bigger and may have a harder time turning down. However, every baby is different so we can always hold space for it to turn whenever it is willing.
