I hear so many good things about PELVIC FLOOR RELEASE during labor. Spinning babies has a great write up about it. Also I asked Spinning Babies about the Open Knee Chest position for ROT (Right Occiput Transverse) position and this is what they said
Spinning Babies Yes, but for a Transverse Arrest (stuck in either R or L OT position) precede it with the forward-leaning inversion for 30 secs and then the sidelying release on BOTH sides for 2-3 contractions (and between) on EACH SIDE, then this for up to 40 minutes (maybe less, maybe not, see). Then get vertical again. If more is needed, lunges through 6 cx on each side, but resting and moving legs inbetween lunges.
This is good to know because there is not a lot of info out there on ROT or transverse arrest. I wish I had known this before because my last baby was stuck in the ROT position in transverse arrest and he was born via c-section after 24 hrs of labor.
