Positions to Turn a Posterior Baby - Part 2 | Sarah Lavonne

What can we use if we don’t have a peanut ball?

In my first pregnancy, we couldn't turn my baby and I ended up having to have a c section because of that... I'm in my second pregnancy, 31 weeks now and the baby is also posterior! Working from now to try to turn this baby around!

Wonderful. Saving this video!

👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨❤️

Im 39 weeks and 5 days. My baby is posterior and is causing my labor to not start. With my first, my water broke and she descended in my pelvis during active labor. Gave birth to her sunny side up. Hoping to turn this baby tonight to get labor going.

This video was helpful! I'll refer back to it when I get closer to labor

I have a question, i finally got baby in anterior position, but can the baby go back to posterior position after all these efforts? can i keep doing the exercises to ensure it remains in the anterior position or will i accidentally flip it back to posterior? thanks in advance for answering

Just found you! I’m 38 weeks and my baby is OP. I was hoping to be further along by now but my cervix is far from ready. So I am going to be trying all of these to turn my baby so she can really start to engage in my pelvis and get things moving, thanks for your help! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

I am currently pregnant with number 7. I have had 5 OP babies naturally. I’m 38 weeks and baby is still posterior so I’m trying it all and am headed to the chiro Friday as well.

If baby is LOP… what size is best to sleep on?

To prevent induction I followed everything mentioned and BOOM water broke the next day.

May I add that baby was originally not in the right position but turned in time for labour! Very thankful!

So am can only do this once am in labor

Iam 33 weeks pregnant now my baby is posterior sometimes anterior sometime is that normal when will he/ she settle into anterior position

Are these only to be done during labour? Not before?

Will an op baby cause pubic pain?

Thanks Sarah, very helpful

Omg your voice is so annoying

Can you link that birthball ? & also the cover pls!!

Awsome class, you are awsome!!!

Sarah, thank you so much for your videos. Last week I had an ultrasound (week 37) and the baby was ahead down but facing my belly. I've been doing exercises based on your videos, and today (week 38) I was told that he's facing my back. I can be a bit cautious taking advise from a 'stay at home mom for whom things worked', but knowing that you're a L&D nurse who has medical background and works with pregnant women all the time, makes me trust your suggestions on how to make things better. Your work is appreciated.

I love your videos! Very greatful that you made/ making them

Lay on a hardwood floor! If all else fails like it did with me, lay on a hardwood floor with a couch pillow between your legs and another under your head for a few minutes!

My baby is head down. But, I don't know if the baby us anterior or posterior... Can I still do these exercises to ensure my baby is in anterior position.

I am at week 37 and baby will not turn he is op I have had ultrasounds every week for the past 2 months and I ask his position every week. I have been doing Several exercises and most of what was on this video and I can’t get him to turn. I’m worried he will not turn any suggestions please? Do I need to just keep doing exercises like all the time please help

Which month we have to do this exercise for op

I wish I knew this before. The only way I could cope with back labor induced using pitocin, was to sit on the toilet in squatting position. Eventually I grew tired and asked for epidural. The nurse came in repeatedly to move me back in the same position. After 32 to 33 hours I consented to c section. The baby had started OP but ended up turned sideways. I shouldn't have stayed squatted so long...

I don't have a birthball any alternative

🥰❤️

Wow I sleep in that runner position lol it’s so comfortable lol 😂

How would a mom have her baby

This video is so amzing ...thanks madam for your educational and visual elaboration..god bless u

I'm last baby wouldn't engage (usually deliver 38 week mark) at my 40 weeks appt found out baby was Posterior. Went home and did these exercises. Went into labor that night. Baby #5 was my biggest little at 8lb 9 oz

What about LOA position babies

Now i can't stop reapeating to myself "Motion is Lotion" .. i have 3 kids already, going to have the 4 one.. my first 2 i had epidural because i was in Europe, but now that i live in Japan they don't really do epidurals here in my city so i remember when i was 8 to 10 cm, already with my water broken i had huge labor pain on the back bone of my back.. and i was screaming so much , and i knew whitout that back bone pain i could tolerate the pain, and i was already in the delievery table so they woudn't let me move anymore even tho i was screaming for them to let me be at least be on the side cause it helped like 5 % :D i really know my body very well but i wasn't that informed about the posterior side of things.. and i used the ball and everythign anyway.. but in the end i ddn't had the chance to move anymore.. so i hope i can get this time the antior before going to the delievery table
Thank you so much

It's a good informative vedio, one of my is trying these exercises since many days , but no results, the baby is still breech, the doctor said the baby's head is a little bigger thus there is no option other than c section. Is there anything else we could do?

Is

My second was born sunny side up, didn't know until it was too late, not pleasant.

I have a question! My baby was head down with back along my left side the majority of my pregnancy. But the stinker is now head down but back along right side at 37/38 weeks. I have heard that because the baby rotates clockwise this is not an ideal position, so I’ve been trying to get baby back on the left side. Lots of leaning forward exercises and lying on left side for sleep etc. 1) is it possible for them to flip to left side again? Or do they have to rotate clockwise into that position even pre-labor? 2) should I delay “engagement” exercises until after baby flips? Is there risk in engaging the head in pelvis when back is along the right side still?

You are right that there’s not much info online about this stuff! And sadly my midwife hasn’t really paid much attention to concerns about positioning thus far.

I'm 40 weeks and my baby truned to breach how can I avoid c section

Lucky they midwife saw my daughter was OP when she made her entrance.

I just had a baby OP // sunny side up and we didn’t know until he came out! but all these things make so much sense. My 4th baby and my instincts changed the entire way I labored.

I have to say this video was amazing. At lunch time my baby was posterior. I started these exercises at about 4pm around the time regular contractions started. I continued them during contractions. I got to the hospital and was 8cm and baby had turned. Baby was born at 8.44pm with no complications. My shortest labor by far!

Please wheb to do this exercises though including the first video? My 31 weeks 3 days ultrasounds says my baby si cephalic, grade 2 postero fundal high lying placenta,,,,,

Love love love ur energy xxx

I’m due in two days today is the 27th n my baby is Op sigh

If the baby is in the correct position is there any way you can move and make the qbaby get into an incorrect position?

Is nobody going to talk about the peace sign at her bottom in the thumbnail?
Loool!!
Love your videos! 35 weeks and always watching your videos to become educated before my delivery!

Wish I would've watched this before! 7 hours of back labor before the doctor came in and put me into the extended runners pose, 30mins on each side, an hour later she turned! Blessed relief!

Hi Sarah I'm at 30 weeks now and my baby is op position. When can I do these exercise.

I’m 40 weeks and only just found out baby is op!

Thank you so much for this video (and the others related to it). I used the moves you showed and took your advice and was able to turn baby within the week! I’m very thankful.
