Belly wrapping?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Baby is head down but lying with his head pointing slightly to my hip rather than straight down. He is also falling forward a bit due to my stretched out muscles & skin so he can't get engaged in the pelvis. My midwofe has suggested getting some lycra fabric & wrapping my belly to attempt to pull baby up & into my pelvis. It sounds like a good idea but I am not sure how to wrap it. I've searched the internet & all I can find are post-partum belly wraps Anyone know anything about this?

I have a very hard time finding this info too. I found a video showing how to do it once and have never been able to find it again. But from what I talked about with my midwife you kind of lean forward while someone else pulls the fabric under your belly and up, gently and then ties it. I believe you can also use a rebozo or a short wrap. It actually feels really good on the back.

Hopefully someone else comes along with more info.

Just saw someone else mention the bellybra product... I'm not jazzed about something that has a bra attached (superboobs here) but I thought I might try it or something like it, see if it makes things more comfy...
