Tips to push & minimize tear

I have 6 more weeks to go before EDD and hoping for vaginal birth with epidural. Any mummies can share any tips to minimise tearing down there during delivery ? How to push and any tips and methods to push? As i heard the nurse wont teach us how to push. Heard that controlling our breathing, not lifting the butt and put chin down when pushing helps. #FTM

nurses will teach but i was on epidural and panicking so I wasnt able to really do "correct" push most of the time (you will know correct or wrong method of pushing as the nurses will keep correcting u haha). vacuum assisted delivery and my gynae told me she was surprised its very minimal tear
