WHEN THINGS CHANGE
You don't always need the whole answer. Sometimes you need a way to find where you are.
Birth can move quickly. Plans change. New information arrives. Sensations intensify. You may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, unsure what to do next, or like everything needs an answer at once.
Rather than giving you another technique or script to remember, Birth Compass helps you re-orient—to your body, your surroundings, your values, and your options—so your next step can feel more grounded and less reactive.
HOW BIRTH COMPASS WORKS
Pause. Orient. Ground. Step.
Birth Compass uses POGS, a simple, repeatable process designed to support orientation during birth. You can return to it as often as you need.
Orient
Bring attention to what is happening right now—in your body and surroundings—to re-establish a sense of presence and direction.
Ground
Use simple sensory or physical anchors to support regulation and reduce overwhelm.
Step
Identify one clear next step rather than trying to solve everything at once.
INSIDE BIRTH COMPASS™
Learn it now. Return to it when you need it.
The short guided online video teaches you the POGS framework for real-time use during birth. You'll also receive a Birth Compass™ Lock Screen so the framework can stay close when things feel intense.
Learn it.
A short guided video introduces POGS and how to use the framework during birth.
Keep it with you.
Your Birth Compass™ Lock Screen keeps Pause, Orient, Ground, Step within easy reach.
Return to it.
POGS can be revisited as often as needed as sensations, information, circumstances, or decisions change.
WHAT BIRTH COMPASS IS
A way to orient in the moment.
You don't need prior preparation or a specific birth plan to use Birth Compass. It can be used in a hospital, birth center, or home setting—and by you or the people supporting you.
Birth Compass is:
- A grounding and orientation tool
- Designed for use during birth
- Flexible, responsive, and non-prescriptive
- Usable in any birth setting
- Something you and your support people can return to
Birth Compass isn't:
- A philosophy or method
- A set of instructions
- A guarantee of a specific outcome
- A replacement for medical care or informed consent
FIND YOUR NEXT STEP
Birth Compass™
You can navigate even the toughest peaks.
Learn a simple four-step framework you can return to when birth feels intense, uncertain, overwhelming, or different from what you expected.
