We know that progression of labor through movement and upright positions is key to our goal of spontaneous vaginal birth. In this session, we'll examine 3 popular labor tools (Birth Ball, Peanut Ball, and the CUB) and how we can use them at the inlet, mid-pelvis, and outlet to aide in optimal positioning and progression of labor. Be ready to think outside of the box and learn a few tricks and tips.

Participants may earn 1.0 Lamaze Contact hour and 1.0 hour of CNE (CBRN).
