PREGNANT WOMEN: OBs and nurse-midwives are knowingly CLOSING
birth canals up to 30%.
You do not have to squat to allow your birth canal to OPEN
the "extra" up to 30%.

SQUATTING A "PHYSICAL STRAIN"?
"[Low back pain/LBP] was prevalent among...[Chinese middle-
aged] women who performed some physical strain activities,
such as prolonged squatting...
[S]howing women how to reduce physical strain during
activity and how to maintain good postures may have great
potential in reducing or eliminating LBP. " --Dr Vera Yip

Vera,
Flat-footed squatting is a fundamental human rest posture.
Were the middle-aged Chinese women in your study squatting
flat-footed?
If they are chair-dwellers like most Westerners, they have
likely lost the ability to squat flat-footed.
Could they have been crouching on their toes - which is
often called squatting?

PS Flat-footed squatting is also a fundamental human
*delivery* posture - one that allows the birth canal to
open an "extra" up to 30%.
Fortunately, MANY birth postures allow the birth canal to
open the "extra" up to 30% (side-lying, kneeling, hands-and-
knees for example)...
Unfortunately, obstetricians and nurse-midwives are
knowingly CLOSING birth canals the "extra" up to 30%.
