1. Reduced Maternal Fatigue: Women who push spontaneously are less likely to experience extreme fatigue because they are not pushing continuously for long periods. 2. Improved Oxygenation: Allowing the mother to breathe naturally between contractions improves oxygen flow to both her and the baby. 3. Decreased Risk of Pelvic Floor Damage: Spontaneous pushing can lead to fewer pelvic floor injuries compared to directed pushing. 4. Enhanced Satisfaction: Women often report feeling more empowered and satisfied with their birth experience when they are allowed to push spontaneously.
