This circuit is useful to help get the baby lined up, ideally, in the "Left Occiput Anterior" (LOA) Position, both before labor begins and when some corrections need to be done during labor.

It's an excellent tool to use in Early Labor to help ensure your baby is in an excellent position, and the pregnant person gets to rest for the first part! The circuit can be used to help regulate or speed up a labor that has gotten erratic or has slowed down.

If the pregnant person finds it helpful, careful positioning with a rebozo under their belly, with gentle tension from a support person behind can help them maintain this position for the full 30 minutes.
Preparation - The Miles Circuit
Before starting, the pregnant person should empty their bladder! Have a nice drink nearby, and make sure it has a straw! If you are having contractions, this circuit should be done through contractions, try not to change positions between steps if you can help it!!
