Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How should I push during childbirth?Doctor's answer:
Steps for Effort:Lie on your back, hold the pillow or bedpost with both hands, and push during the peak of contractions.
In the supine position, take deep breaths. After inhaling air into your chest, hold your breath temporarily, then push as you would when having a bowel movement, towards the direction of your anus.
When you can no longer hold your breath, begin to exhale, then immediately inhale again and push.
During labor, follow the instructions of your doctor and nurse to alternate between pushing and relaxing.
Push during contractions, for about 10 seconds each time. If the pain continues, keep inhaling and pushing.
When contractions stop, relax your entire body and rest for a moment.
Proper rest allows you to exert force effectively—in other words, timing your efforts correctly can reduce the pain.
Therefore, pushing must be coordinated with the pain.
During the intervals, the baby receives plenty of oxygen for energy storage, so the mother should try to relax as much as possible at this time—the more relaxed, the better.
