Pushing like you have to poop?


Mobile: Pushing like you have to poop?
 
Is it true that when you push you push more like you are having to go to the bathroom? What were you guys told?

  • Yes, and in my experience the urge to push felt very similar to really needing to poop, too.
  • Yup, just like you're having a bowel movement :

  • It's true. Push like you are taking a massive dump!! When I felt the need to push it was a pressure in my bum. So it was easy to push like I needed to poop.

  • Very true. That's the only way you'll push LO out.

  • That is the best way to describe it.  For me it was putting my chin to my chest, curling around baby, and then pushing like I was pooping.

  • One of my coworkers described it as being like trying to *** a watermelon.
  • Down and out!! Don't hold back either if you really feel like you are pooling...that means it is working....I felt embarrassed when I really felt like I was pooling cuz I was but they kept saying don't stop don't stop that's great....and she came right out.

    So...gross? Yes....but it only took three pushes. Oh well.
  • Yes! I could even feel myself pooping and asked them if I was and sure enough, but I could careless at that point. When I was dialating from 9 to 10cm I was having the urge to push from my stomach, kinda like you have diarrhea and yet there's nothing to push out. That was very uncomfortable!

  • I was told not to do that.  When I pushed, I was told to push with my abs (pull my navel into my back) and not push into my legs or bottom.

  • Yep! They told me to direct all my energy to my anus!
