It’s so important that the spine and pelvis are in good alignment during pregnancy.A misalignment in the pelvis can cause instability and surrounding muscles/ligaments to be pulled in an uncomfortable direction.This can cause discomfort during pregnancy. Babies are super smart and will go wherever and in whatever position is comfortable for the baby.Baby is the passenger. We always want to ensure mom is aligned so the baby is in the best position for birth. Then after birth, it's always good to get the baby checked as well. Baby has been in utero in awkward positions for months. During the check, I’m looking to see if there are any Torticollis, primitive reflexes intact and strong, oral restrictions, cranial shape, range of motion, and misalignments.Checking babies is super gentle; any adjustments are with no more pressure than you’d check a ripe avocado or tomato. Getting babies checked during the first year of life is great! I like making sure babies are developing well and hitting all developmental milestones. Then if they’re not, what’s going on there and how to address it?"Find a Webster Certified ChiroYou can find more about Kim here:Follow @dr_kimtran and @integratedchirowellness on Instagram.Her website is: www.fulshearkatychiro.comResources: Grab a Free Pregnancy/Postpartum Checklist BundleConnect w/ Trish: On InstagramOn FacebookOn YouTubeOn Pinterest On TikTokFor more pregnancy & birth education, subscribe to The Birth Experience on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Next Steps with LNM:If you are ready to invest in your pregnancy & postpartum journey, you are in the right place.
