Protect the Perineum for Birth!
2nd Stage Labor & The Pelvic Floor for Practitioners.
Research shows that the excess force from long periods of breath holding while sustaining pushing and pushing in an uncoordinated way may be harmful to the perineum, resulting in tears and weaker pelvic floor muscles, months or years after birth.
30% of continent people after birth become incontinent 5-7 years later. Learn how to minimize this.
This 2 hr class on Pushing and the Pelvic Floor incudes practical and evidence-based strategies to optimize the pushing process and protect the physiology of birthing people.
We will explore:
π What is the second stage labor? The relationship between the pelvis, the baby and the pelvic floor?
π How practitioners can better educate their clients ahead of time to push safely and effectively (with or without an epidural)
π Pelvic anatomy + biomechanics for the pushing part of labor
πHow to navigate pushing in the hospital culture for a functional birth
π Pushing positions
π Breathing strategies and the βhow toβ.
