Sorry mine is somewhat not relevant but I did try to push. Cause I was told to “empty” pushed for 3-4 times before being wheeled in for emergency c-sect because baby didn’t want to come out. Why I say “empty” was because I didn’t feel the urge to push anything out so it felt so weird suddenly being asked to push out “nothing” randomly. Contractions started at 7am and water bag broke at 11pm previous day and had to wait for 10cm dilation until 9am next day before I could “push”. Yup, it was really risky.
