part 9 of the “how to reduce tearing risk during labor” series - pushing!! The one you’ve all been waiting for 😆🥰 Biggest takeaway here: OPEN GLOTTIS PUSHING 👏🏻 Avoid “closed glottis” (aka holding your breath & bearing down) pushing to save your perineum (& avoid unnecessarily fatiguing yourself increasing your baby’s risk of distress 😅)

Have you heard of open glottis pushing for birth? It’s when you let some air out of your mouth while pushing vs holding your breath for a long time (valsalva/purple pushing or closed glottis ). ➡️Had you heard much about pushing before birth? Learning to breath and relaxing your pelvic floor (the muscles at the bottom of your pelvis) in pregnancy is helpful to prepare your body for pushing - think of opening the door for baby to exit. With an unmedicated birth and waiting for your body to push o

Have you given a thought to how you're going to breathe when you are pushing during labor and delivery? If not, here's what you should know! Closed glottis pushing is when you hold your breath as you bear down and push. This technique is more commonly coached in a hospital setting and may be referred to as purple pushing. It may appear to be more effective since it looks like you are exerting yourself so much more. But, appearance does not necessarily mean more effectiveness. Open glottis pushin

Knowing when to use each technique can support an effective, empowered birth experience! ✨ Comment ‘labor’ and I’ll send you a preview of my Movement Thro

Built To Birth on Instagram: "More on OPEN GLOTTIS PUSHING. Holding your breath while bearing down like they tell you do to do in labor is called the Valsalva Manuever. It is forced expiration (breathing out) against a CLOSED glottis. Here’s the thing, the Valsalva manuever or closed glottis pushing CAN shorten the pushing time. Why? Because it’s more forceful. But it also reduces oxygen and blood flow. During daily life, (like pooping) you might perform this type of breathing. BUT, it’s control
