What is a birthing bar?

[WombToBloom]

A birthing bar is a bar which can be attached to the bed and can allow a woman to labor in a different way than she has before. The bar is about shoulder or chest high when one is on your knees on the bed and the idea is to kneel on the bed and lean over the bar or hold onto the bar during the contractions. The bar is used for two different purposes. It is used to help turn the head from a face up position to a face down position because the mother is essentially on her hands and knees when using the bar so that the head can flip around so the back is to the front of the mother.

It is also used to help a mother push in the early stages of labor. It allows more pressure on the perineum and shortens the pushing stage of labor quite a bit. After a while, however, the woman is asked to lie on her back. The bar isn’t comfortable for everyone but in certain circumstances, it is the only way to progress labor faster and more efficiently. Not all hospitals have a birthing bar but many do. You should ask to use the birthing bar if you are tired of laboring on your back or side and when you can no longer labor standing up or walking.

I call this a squat bar. I recommend you ask for this when you get to the hospital. Sometimes it takes awhile for them to find it if it isn't used much at the hospital.
