Have you ever wondered why some babies naturally go head down around 34 weeks and others don't? Or why some births progress quicker than others? A lot of it has to do with what's happening inside your body! For a variety of reasons there might be constrictions or imbalances limiting baby's movement. Today on Yoga | Birth | Babies we're taking a dive into understanding how chiropractic care works, how it benefits baby, pregnancy, and your body. As well as the Webster technique, what it is and how it can encourage baby to go head down. We're also going to talk about how chiropractic work can help those planning a VBAC, and we'll be talking about the importance of informed choices and decision making. For this lively and interesting conversation my guest today is Dr. Elliot Berlin prenatal chiropractor, childbirth educator, labor support bodyworker, and cofounder of Berlin Wellness Group. You may also have heard his podcast The Informed Pregnancy Podcast (which I had the honor of being a guest on). He is delightful to talk to, down to earth, and full of so much knowledge.

What does it mean to be truly informed regarding your pregnancy and birth? This week, we're speaking with Dr. Elliot Berlin, who is an award-winning prenatal chiropractor, childbirth educator, labor support bodyworker, and co-founder of Berlin Wellness Group in Los Angeles, California. Dr. Berlin graduated Summa Cum Laude from Life University of Chiropractic in Atlanta, Georgia, and the Atlanta School of Massage. His separate schooling in massage therapy, bodywork, and chiropractic form the backbone of his innovative pre- and post-natal wellness care techniques. Unique ‘Chirossage' sessions soothe and relax tight, painful muscles and restore motion to restricted joints. These 30 to 45-minute treatments effectively address most pregnancy aches and pains in just a few visits and promote healthy, comfortable, and functional pregnancy and an ideal environment for labor and delivery. Dr. Berlin's Informed Pregnancy® Project aims to utilize multiple forms of media (podcasts, YouTube series, documentaries, and online workshops) to compile and deliver unbiased information about pregnancy and childbirth to empower new and expectant parents to make informed choices regarding their pregnancy and parenting journey. Dr. Berlin lives in Los Angeles with his wife, perinatal psychologist Dr. Alyssa Berlin, and their four fantastic kids. Episode Roundup Our bodies are so innately intelligent. Dr. Elliot shared how he and his wife Dr. Alyssa were trying so desperately to become pregnant, and yet there was something going on in their bodyminds that just wasn't ready for the grand task of creating a child. When they began focusing on their minds, their hearts, their physical bodies and even their location, they were then able to conceive-- safety had been met. Healing the nervous system allowed their bodies to feel comfortable with the idea of conception. I love Dr. Berlin's discussion of the conscious and unconscious mind. How our ability move our worries out of our conscious mind can be so powerful in terms of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I'm always reminded of Matthew 6:27 when I consider anxiety and my own struggle and recovery in that area-- where Jesus says, Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? And finally, let's talk about the Bread and Butter of Dr. Berlin's message- Information. It is just so critical to recognize that no one, not even your precious midwife, is going to care about your outcomes and experience as much as you are. Nobody will be as affected by how your birth experience transpires as you and your family. SO. That being the weighty truth, what do we do? We take seriously both our gaining of knowledge AND our ability to listen to our intuition. When we know what's possible for us in both of these realms and use them together wisely, we can walk into our pregnancy, our birth experience, parenthood.... feeling like the confident, primal parent we were designed to be.

We're digging into bodywork and why this matters when you are TTC. I know you may feel panicked about getting pregnant and having your baby. After all, the fertility industry pushes us towards aggressive IVFs, treatment after treatment, without considering the couple's health. At Fab Fertile, we are not anti-IVF. But moving towards another IVF or even selecting IVF in the first place without working on your health can backfire. We see many couples that have experienced multiple failed IVFs and are still told to keep going with another retrieval or transfer. But that thinking would be wrong. Because when we're in fight or flight mode, the body wants to survive, not procreate. When I speak with couples that are TTC, I can see the panic, worry and overwhelm in their eyes. They tell me they feel powerless and hopeless. And the uncertainty can cause so much stress. I know firsthand how this feels. Taking control of your health puts you in the driver's seat. You reduce the uncertainty and help to visualize a path forward. So how do we show our body that it's safe to procreate? Today I'm excited to welcome Dr. Elliot Berlin. Dr. Elliot is an award-winning prenatal chiropractor, childbirth educator, labour support bodyworker, and co-founder of Berlin Wellness Group in Los Angeles, California. In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Which types of bodywork can help to increase blood flow to the reproductive organs 2) How to balance the autonomic nervous system so the body knows it is safe to procreate 3) Why panic and impatience with getting pregnant can hold you back and how to switch your mindset right now to visualize pregnancy success --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/ Connect with Dr. Elliot Berlin Website | DoctorBerlin.com https://www.doctorberlin.com/ Instagram @DoctorBerlin https://www.instagram.com/doctorberlin/ Get your free copy of our Spring Fertility Recipe Guide (includes 5-day meal plan/grocery shopping list, all free from the TOP allergens) at https://www.fertilitydietfreebie.com/.
