Depending on the style of your old seatpost, turn it the opposite direction. I've done this to help shrink a bike down for a kid and to move people forward for aerobars. Not every post will allow it but quite a few will allow just enough angle adjustment to allow a saddle to be flat to a few degrees nose down. Otherwise, profile makes a post for putting aero bars on a road bike that moves the seat forward, Thomson's angled post can be turned around for the same purpose.
