Movement support, even when you can't be at the bedside
You know movement helps. It's difficult to implement in clinical reality.
As a midwife or L&D nurse, you know how important movement is during labor. It supports progress, creates space, and helps women stay connected to their bodies. In practice, it's hard to maintain: monitoring, epidurals, fatigue, and routines often lead to more time in bed. Supporting movement requires time and physical effort which isn't always available. Vibwife integrates gentle movement directly into the birthing bed — so movement continues even when you have to leave the bedside.
When movement continues beyond hands-on support
Midwifery-inspired techniques in the birthing bed
Vibwife is integrated into the birthing bed and delivers gentle, rhythmic movement at the pelvis. The birth mobility system can be controlled by the woman or by you, depending on the situation. It offers four movement patterns inspired by midwifery techniques: Rocking Baby, Infinite Harmony, Relaxing Vibrations & Jiggle and Sleeping Beauty. They work across different positions and labor stages — and are compatible with CTG, epidural, and standard monitoring.
What this changes in your shift
Movement remains possible even when the mother is in bed. Pelvic mobility, space for fetal descent, position changes — all even when you cannot provide continuous hands-on guidance.

Insights from clinical teams using Vibwife
„Vibwife supports movements our nurses already use every day — but in a more continuous and integrated way. I'm excited to see its impact on labor progression, cesarean rates, and patient experience. Most importantly, our nurses are genuinely excited about it.“
