Labor is way more of a head game than we believe it to be. When a woman is allowed to sink in deep into labor land and find her groove, she is much more likely to get the birth she wants. When labor is disrupted by temperature checks, cervical checks, questions, etc it pulls her out of labor land and back into her brain.

When cervical checks are done because of a clinical sign, it can indicate a need that is beneficial. When they are done out of curiosity, there is usually more harm than good done.

Protecting your mind from disappointment is key in having a natural/physiological/undisturbed birth.   You have 3 options when it comes to cervical checks. In this episode we will dive into how to figure out what one is best for you!    SHOW NOTES: https://www.birthblissbeyond.com/post/_ep13   Let's continue the conversation Thursdays at 1:30cst to dive deeper into the episode in The Empowered Mama's Birth Tribe on Facebook. www.facebook.com/groups/empoweredmamastribe   Find out more over at:   IG: @empoweredbirthpodcast   Would you take a minute and leave a rating and review?
