A mum-of-two has revealed what she calls her her ‘magical’ method that helps birth a baby in just a few pushes.
Those of us who have laboured in the pushing stage for hours upon hours will know just how difficult it can be to get through that final hurdle of birth. We’re often exhausted from hours of labour and can’t muster the strength, or work out the best way to push out our babies.
One mum says after birthing two babies, she’s found the best way to teach yourself how to push – and it’s super simple.
She shared the tip on her TikTok account, Biscotti Babies, saying it will help you get your baby out in a ‘few pushes’. In fact, she says her first born, Amara, was delivered in just three pushes, all by using the ‘coughing’ technique.
“My magical method to push your baby out in just a few pushes … COUGH before you go into the hospital and focus on what muscles you used to cough in your abdomen! Use those muscles to push, it’s not the muscles you use to poo!”

She said used this technique when birthing both of her babies, and delivered them both in two or three pushes with no tearing.
We think this is a fabulous tip – well worth remembering!
