How to relieve pain during the first stage of labor? The specific method is:
1. Kneel on the ground, slowly turn your waist, or push hard. This allows the fetus to descend easily, and this position can reduce pressure on the back, thereby reducing low back pain.
2. Sit on a low chair, spread your feet, exert your strength, and ask two helpers to support your armpits. The most important thing at this time is to relax your whole body. Once tense, labor pains will intensify and the fetus will not descend easily.
3. During childbirth, some labor pains are unbearable. Whether it is late pregnancy or childbirth, these movements can help relieve labor pain. Place your hands on a chair or table and rotate your waist in a circle. This will relieve pain.
4. If you lie on your back, you will feel more severe labor pain, but if you kneel or stand and lean forward against the midwife, the pain can be reduced.
5. Squatting delivery method can also reduce labor pain. The assistant sat on the pregnant woman\’s back and put her hands under her armpits. Pregnant women put their weight on each other and their bodies sag. The key point is: don’t force yourself and spread your feet apart. When practicing alone, you can sit on a low chair without a backrest, relax your upper body, and keep your whole body muscles relaxed. This position helps stretch the perineum and prevents lacerations.
6. When you want to lie down between contractions, place your knees on pillows to prevent leg cramps. Also, placing a pillow under your back will make it more comfortable. Once you feel drowsy, take a break and conserve your energy.
7. Kneel on the ground, slowly lower your head and chest to the floor, and lift your hips. This action can slow down labor and prevent the perineum from becoming fully stretched and torn.
8. Rest on the mat for a while between contractions. Alternatively, lie on the floor with your hands and knees shoulder-width apart in a position that makes you feel relaxed. But avoid sitting back, which will bear weight on the tailbone, restrict the expansion of the pelvis, and make childbirth difficult. In the first stage of labor, you can also relieve labor pain through appropriate venting, such as singing, moaning, sighing, shouting, etc. You don\’t have to suppress yourself deliberately.
But it should be noted that the most important thing at the same time is to adjust your breathing and cooperate with medical staff to relax your muscles throughout the body. Excessive catharsis is not conducive to the progress of labor.
