One of my pregnant mamas gave birth recently and at her first postpartum adjustment she said to me, "I know that if I didn't get chiropractic care I would've had to get a C-section that I didn't want. Because of care I was able to deliver my baby vaginally the way I wanted to and I am so grateful."
So you're pregnant, or hoping to be pregnant soon. What now?
Sure it's time to prepare your birth plan, build a registry, and find your birth providers. But when is the right time to start chiropractic care? And what are the risks & benefits?
The one complaint I get from my pregnant clients is, "I wish I would have started care sooner!" Because these mamas are finally enjoying their pregnancy in a way they didn't know was possible.
So when is the best time to start care? Prior to conception. This boosts your fertility and increases your chances of actually getting pregnant AND it sets your body up to create an ideal environment to grow your precious little babe.
If you're already pregnant, don't stress. The next best time to start is now, ASAP, pronto, immediately! The sooner you start your chiropractic care in pregnancy, the sooner you get to start enjoying the benefits. Speaking of benefits, here's what many of our pregnant mamas report experiencing from chiropractic care:
No more back pain, pubic pain, sciatica, or round ligament pain
Reduced morning sickness
Mental clarity/less brain fog aka pregnancy brain
Better sleep
Shorter labor times
Less birth interventions
Improved postpartum experience
Optimal baby positioning
Decreased stress & anxiety
And the risks:
Slight soreness after your first adjustment
...that's really about it
