Description
When Baby Lies Sideways could help you if:
- The doctor scheduled a cesarean because your baby is sideways in the womb
- The doctor offers an external cephalic version to manually turn the baby head down by hand
- You’re in the third trimester of pregnancy and your baby is not head down, but is lying sideways in a transverse lie, lying diagonally in an oblique lie, or changes into any of these positions frequently in what’s called an unstable lie
- Your midwife or doctor referred you to Spinning Babies® for information about what you can do that may help your baby find room to move head down
- You don’t have medical reasons that would contraindicate Forward-leaning Inversion, like bleeding from the placenta, or high blood pressure
- You want to avoid a cesarean or any other significant intervention in childbirth
Within your body is the physiology of fetal positioning. And within your body is the physiology of self-compassion. This eBook offers a plan of action to be done with compassion. Activating your physiology with a good plan gives you and your baby an excellent chance for a birth with a head-down baby.
We believe you and your baby are together in this adventure of life. One thing is certain: by the end of this program, you will have learned more about yourself that you can apply to life and parenting.

IT WORKED! At my positioning appointment I was 36 weeks + 5 days and was told baby was still not head down and that they needed to see me again asap to discuss options and possibly schedule a cesarean. On the way out the front desk lady wrote down this website on a piece of paper. I did the the exercise for 3 days and went to my appointment this morning to find out that our baby girl is now head down and in the correct position. Doing the movements felt so pointless and I honestly didn’t think they were doing anything… with my little amount of hope and sadness of possibly not having a vaginal birth I kept doing the exercises…. turns out it ACTUALLY DID DO SOMETHING. The main movements I did were the forward leaning inversion, cat and cow, hip bridges, and kneeled lunging hip flexor stretches on both sides. I am so THRILLED. THANK YOU SPINNING BABIES!!

I did this and a few other spinning babies techniques and in 2.5 days, my baby, who was transverse nearly all pregnancy up to 34 weeks, was confirmed head down. It took a lot of work those 2.5 days and I would have done it longer if I needed to. 100% worth it. 10/10 recommend.

Second baby here was traverse at 37 weeks. I was so scared she wasn’t going to flip and I’ll have to have a hospital birth but one day of doing the Spinning Babies program my daughter flipped head down!! I confirmed it with an ultrasound the next day and she’s staying down! Thank goodness for spinning babies!!

I purchased this book when I was 36 weeks along with my 7th baby and learned that he was, indeed, transverse, as I had feared. Reading it gave me immense hope. It was organized in a very easy to access way. It explained reasons for baby being transverse, which made my situation make perfect sense. It also explained what can be done about it and why these exercises are effective. It also explained precautions, which I appreciated, as my pregnancy was unique. Best of all, it laid out a schedule to help you prepare for a big turning day for baby, and a schedule to follow on the turning day. This gave me peace and confidence. I also added a pregnancy belt which helped. My baby did turn! He didn’t stay turned 100% of the time, but as I continued to follow the advice in the book, he would continue to go head down again. I am so grateful to report that though he was posterior in the end, he was head down and I was able to deliver my baby vaginally. It was truly a miracle and I am very grateful. I think if I had had more time and the knowledge that I now have, I would have had an even better result regarding the posterior positioning. I am so grateful for discovering Spinning Babies!
