Best pushing technique: BREATH YOUR BABY OUT 💨
Your throat and your pelvic floor are connected! 🤝
If you relax your body & throat area, you also relax your pelvic floor. If you cut your breathing and clench you body, it clenches your muscles too making pushing more difficult.
You can push, tire yourself out and push for hours because it’s not doing anything or PUSH STRATEGICALLY.
Purple pushing has so many risks that it’s mind blowing how it is to go to technique and push pushing during labor in hospitals.
If you have an epidural, it does not mean that you have to do purple pushing. Breathing your baby out is still possible even if you cannot feel all that well.
BENEFITS OF BREATHING WHILE PUSHING:
➡️Your body & pelvic floor is relaxed
➡️Your pelvic floor muscles have time to expand, stretch without causing nerve damage or tears
➡️It increases the chances of Fetal Ejection Reflex
➡️It helps mom save her energy & not get tired quickly
➡️ Decreases pushing time
