She is a woman chiropractor who I met when I was reading her copy of "Well Adjusted Babies", which is a book about pregnancy and birth written by a Chiropractor. I was happily nodding & agreeing with all I read and then the Chiro appeared and I asked how I could get a copy? She sold me a second hand copy. We later met for lunch and she told me about Chiro for birth and I told her about doula work. I have never been to a Chiro and didn't know anything about it so it was interesting. She does not specialise in pregnancy, and is not yet a mother herself, but she assured me that she was very gentle and seemed understanding of the way birth works. I never thought I would be referring a client to her so soon.
But my client told me she was experiencing pubic pain. I googled Symphysis Pubic Dysfunction and found an informative site called "Plus Size Pregnancy" which has a wealth of info for ANY size pregnancy IMO! It mentioned how Chiros use the Webster Technique to adjust the pelvis and the ligaments so that nothing is preventing the baby from turning to anterior. It just removes the hindrances. It explained how the pelvis being a little out of whack could result in a malpositioned baby.
My client read the article and said, "I can relate to nearly ALL of this!" After the visit to the Chiro, she rang me the nxt day to say she was out of pain, and the baby was now LOA. Amazing.
I think to find an angel Chiro like this near you, you'd just have to shop around and ask lots of questions until you find one you feel is pelvis-friendly. I hope it's successful, it would be nice to find relief from the continuing discomfort.
There is some great wisdom in this thread from women who've experienced a posterior labour. Thanks for sharing!
