Chiro says I may not feel first stage of labor

Just got back from my weekly chiropractor appointment and she told me that all the work we have been doing may mean that I might not even be able to feel the first stage of labor and won't feel anything until second stage.  I really hope that is the case!  I would love to miss the first stage!  Another reason why I am so glad I decided to do chiropractic with this pregnancy!

  • Sounds like a nice thought if it actually plays out that way!

  • Hope it happens for you!  What have you been doing with your chiro that leads her to think this may be the case?  Just regular adjustments?

  • Meaning that you won't feel anything until it's time to deliver baby? First stage = 10 cm of dilation.  Wouldn't that be wonderful!?

  • I have been doing regular prenatal adjustments.  She specializes in prenatal and postpartum.  She's mainly been working on relaxing my pelvic muscles and round ligaments.

    I think she meant that I wouldn't really start feeling the contractions until about transition because all the work she's been doing helps my body do what it's supposed to and not work against itself.  Hopefully I will have at least some sign before it's time to push!

  • While it would be nice to not feel the first stage of labor, I'd be super scared that I wouldn't make it to the hospital in time! Especially after having a baby, doesn't it go faster the next time around? Nice, but scary.
