maybe the massage therapist is not aware of ways to prevent maternal supine hypotension? There are pregnancy massage therapists out there, and one of my friends who is a massage therapist regularly massages pregnant women.

I'm hoping to send her in that direction, Jo. Thanks for that experience
too!

> hmmm. A professional massage turned my baby from breech to cephalic (and
she stayed that way), which was definitely beneficial! The masseuse I saw
was a qualified Rolfer, which requires extensive previous training
beforehand, but unfortunately I don't know what style/s that training was in
her case. There are a number of people around offering pregnancy massage,
maybe she could call one of them for advice as to where they got their
training?

miscarriage. Personally I know that's a crock but I'd love to be able to
give her better info, perhaps on traditional and well evidenced forms of
massage in pregnancy.
