I do do Webster technique, and I usually do adjust full spine with it as well.  I believe, and have seen the best results, when you take the whole spine into consideration. I have a hard time knowing someone has a subluxation that needs to be adjusted and leaving it alone.  I do look at the pubic bones and the occiput a lot of times when it comes to in uterine constraint, but every patient is different.  I find it has a lot to do with all the things that you preach as well.  I tell mom to move around.  Sit on a ball, do inversion, get off of the recliner, etc...  Most of the patients that I use Webster on are not breech but are slightly off center, but you know what I mean.  I see lots of moms that are 37-39 weeks and not feeling any "dropping" in the baby or I palpate and feel the baby is up in the pelvis instead of descending or posterior.  I LOVE to see moms from the early weeks of pregnancy to prevent this issues as well.  I start doing the "Webster Technique" very early on.  I see better results that way.

I do use Nimmo Receptor Tonus Technique which simply put is a trigger point therapy.  I also work on the round ligaments obviously.  I do pelvic musculature stretching when needed, etc...  I also do do some craniosacral work, and diaphragm release work. 

Treatment for newborn care is totally dependent on if there are any serious issues going on.  I feel it is very important to get babies checked within their first few days of life.  If it is pretty routine and I don't find serious issues then I usually like to see a newborn within the first few days, and maybe a week follow up.   If still ok, then I like to check at 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months.  Unless there are any issues along the way.  I educate the parents the signs that they should look for.  Such as... frequent colds, ear issues, excessive crying, difficulties nursing, excessive spitting up, head preference, etc...

I do have my diplomate in pediatrics which is any additional three years of training in pediatrics and obstetrics related to chiropractic.  I feel very comfortable treating pregnant women and children.  Have seen LOTS of both, and enjoy it very much.
