Welcome back gang, In this episode we talk about birthing positions. What's going to make things easier and what ones are going to make it all harder. We talk about how King Louis XIV was a perve and why the current most common birth position is all his fault. Hope you enjoy the episode, if you do please share it review it do anything you can to engage with it because it helps me more than youd know.

Imagine navigating your pregnancy and birth with a sense of clarity and confidence, rather than uncertainty. The B.R.A.I.N Tool Podcast, hosted by TMH, is built on the conviction that the choices surrounding your birth should be yours, made from a place of knowledge rather than pressure or limited time. Each episode addresses the reality that during prenatal appointments, there often isn't enough time to explore every option or digest all the information presented. This podcast serves as that essential, in-depth resource. You’ll find conversations that meticulously explore the various scenarios, procedures, and decisions that can arise during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. The goal is to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of your choices, empowering you to use your own B.R.A.I.N.-to weigh the Benefits, Risks, Alternatives, your Intuition, and what happens if you do Nothing-in any situation. Tuning into this educational podcast means gifting yourself the space to learn and reflect, so you can approach your birth feeling prepared and actively involved in writing your own story.
