How to do ani lifting exercise for pregnant women

Some women may suffer from rectal prolapse after giving birth due to the force exerted during delivery and long-term venous pressure. Therefore, it is best to do ani lifting exercises regularly after 29 weeks of pregnancy, 50-100 times a day, which is not only beneficial for preventing hemorrhoids, but also helpful for accurate force during normal delivery. At the same time, pay attention to controlling the time spent in the toilet, which should not be too long.

Effective anal lifting exercises - Kegel exercises, as long as the method is correct and persistent, and can be easily performed whether sitting, lying or even standing. Kegel exercises mainly train the levator ani muscles (a type of smooth muscle surrounding the rectum and anal canal, which contracts during defecation to ensure the anus is open).

Kegel exercises are performed as follows:

1. Lie on your back on the bed with your knees bent, similar to the posture for a gynecological examination before delivery.

2. Contract your pelvic floor muscles, just like when you suddenly hold your urine during urination.

3. Continue contracting for about 10 seconds, then relax for 10 seconds. Repeat 15 times, once a day.

The number of exercises and the intensity of contractions should be determined according to the physical condition of the expectant mother and the circumstances of the surgery. It is best to consult a doctor in advance.
