Unlikely: exercise can help ease the pelvic ligaments, but won't increase the pelvic width, it also depends on the baby's head size and position.Height below 150 cm can be in itself an indication for Caesarean section, however you can still talk to your obstetrician for trial of normal labor. Labor and delivery, is a complex process, many variables control it, and ladies with wide pelves still get C section
