The Take-Charge Routine
What to do when your partner has lost their rhythm

When to Use It
Use this routine when your partner: says 'I can't do this,' has lost their rhythm, is in transition, or you see them starting to slip into panic. This is your go-to move when nothing else is working.
The Steps
Why It Works
The Take-Charge Routine works because it replaces chaos with structure. Instead of reacting to pain, your partner follows a simple, repeatable pattern. You provide the rhythm when your partner cannot find it. One contraction at a time.
