Episode 24: How to Avoid Tearing in Childbirth

In this week’s episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I wanted to talk about how to avoid tearing in childbirth during vaginal delivery. There are different factors and I will discuss them in this podcast.

I will also give some tips because many women do not know that they can actually avoid tearing during delivery.

In this episode we discuss: 

• [0:36] Introduction to the topic
• [1:09] Different grades of tearing
• [5:31] How to prepare for avoiding the grades of tearing
• [13:25] My experience in avoiding a tear during my second delivery
• [17:21] Coached pushing can cause tearing
• [19:11] Being able to move into different positions while delivering 
• [19:49] Conclusion

If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you send me a message through Facebook or Instagram. I’d be happy to do another podcast about your questions. Also, if you want me to talk about something specific, let me know!

You can also check my TikTok account as I use the platform to educate viewers about movement, chiropractic education, yoga, pregnancy, and more! 

Thank you for listening and see you next week!
