Birthing stool and/or toilet – one of the best and the most underrated birthing tools – a.k.a. the dilation station!
➜ Sitting on the toilet we naturally let our mind, the pelvic floor and perineum relax. It lets the uterus and cervix work more effectively.
➜ Sitting on the toilet and/or birth stool puts you in a supported squatting position, opens up your pelvis by 30% and lets gravity help with downward movement of the baby.
➜ A toilet is a great place to rest, empty your bladder if needed, and allow birthing hormones to flow freely while undisturbed in a private, low light environment.
