Perineum\nMassage - How to Massage the Perineum: Using Motherlylove Down Below Perineum\nMassage Oil. The advantages of perineal massage. By getting to know your body\nyou can have more confidence to deliver your baby. Massage increases the blood\nflow to the perineum allowing more stretch and less pain during the birth of\nyour baby. Helps you to focus on letting your perineum open up. Practise your\npelvic floor exercises and breathing exercises, as this will also help at the\nbirth. Tears to the perineum are less likely. Your perineum is less likely to\nbe painful three months after the birth . 1. When to Start: The best results\nhave been shown when you massage your perineum 3 times a week for 10 minutes,\nstarting from 34�35 weeks of pregnancy up to the birth. 2. Position: The best\ntime to massage your perineum is after a bath or shower when you are relaxed\nand the perineum is softer, as the blood vessels are dilated. Make yourself\ncomfy on the bed, with lots of pillows supporting your back with knees bent\nout. Alternatively you can rest in the bath or sit on the toilet. 3. How to\nMassage the Perineum: Use a small amount of Motherlylove Perineal Massage Oil\n(no added essential oils) to lubricate the area. Place your thumbs in the\nvagina, with the first two fingers of each hand outside on your bottom, then\npress downwards towards the anus with your thumbs. Move your thumbs up each\nside of your vagina, in a small U shape stretching movement. The stretch\nshould be held, with your thumbs at the widest point of the vagina, for 30-40\nseconds. To get the maximum benefit, massage for up to 10 minutes using this\ntechnique. The Motherlylove Perineal Massage Oil is formulated to im- prove\nthe natural elasticity of the skin. This feeling of stretching will be similar\nto the one when your baby�s head is appearing. If at first it is sore � stop\nand try another day. 4. Tips when Massaging the Perineum As you advance in\npregnancy, your partner could be shown how to massage your perineum. Instead\nof using their thumbs they should use their index fingers. Good communication\nis important. Having a balanced diet helps healthy skin to stretch. At the\nbirth of your baby the midwife will be able to advise you on different\npositions you can adopt in labour, which will en- able you to have a\ncontrolled delivery. Listen to your midwife for advice when to push and when\nto stop pushing in the second stage of labour. If you are going to have a\ncaesarean section delivery, you can use this gentle oil to massage your hands\nand arms as well as helping the scar to heal. When Not to massage the\nperineum: Do not use perineal massage, if you have vaginal herpes, thrush or\nany other vaginal infections.
