Please, squatting is not encouraged during 3rd trimester or during labor unless you've been doing before pregnancy.
Squatting can lead to prolonged labor, difficult delivery and a generous episiotomy or possible CS.
If you squat with your knees and feet parallel, your pelvic will be in a triangular shape but if you squat with your feet pointing outward, your pelvic will be in a reverse triangular shape. I'll try to explain each.
A woman in her 3rd trimester can't squat with her feet and knees parallel. What it means is that when she's squatting, the upper side of the pelvic is open while the lower side is closed. Now, the optimal birthing position for babies is occipital anterior i.e. The baby's face facing your back. This position makes labor faster and most babies turn to this position during active labor.
If you are squatting and your baby is not in occipital anterior position, you force the baby's head to descend into the pelvic with no room to change which means you may be faced with a difficult labor. The baby will be in occipital posterior position and the outer side of the pelvic will be tighter. Yes, squatting is known for toning the pelvic.
If you squat with your feet pointing outwards it makes the upper side closed and the lower side open. This means that you can be fully dilated but the baby's head will still not be engaged or it will be hitting the pelvic bones. Most babies get engaged during active labor.
How about women that do water birth and deliver in a squatting position? You may ask. Listen, no professional midwife will allow a woman to squat during labor unless the head of the baby has passed the ischial tuberosities. When the head passes the ischial tuberosities, then the woman is allowed to enter the water for delivery. By design, a heavily pregnant woman cannot squat with her feet and knees parallel.

You can turn a labor that is meant to last for 3 hrs into a 10 hrs labor by squatting.
Walk, Run, Dance, climb the stairs, get down on your 4's, lie on your left side, rock on an exercise ball with your knees lower than your hips but please avoid squatting unless it's been part of your routine before pregnancy.

Thanks alot for this explanation ma'am..
Never knew all along
I really appreciate

@patking, prettyhurts, just got back from the hospital, had a scan,doctor said there are blood clots still remaining. Said the uterus is expanded abi can't remember his English again. Was given an injection, he said if the bleeding continues they'll suck it out,and it sounds like another evacuation to me.

Last last,I'm honestly sick and tired of everything,I don't know why all these things are happening to me.

Lol.. Don't turn your face oh

Cramping without bleeding is absolutely normal at this stage but be careful, just dey pamper yourself for now so that baby can implant very well.
You will be fine
Welcome

They should give you drugs(cytotec) that will help to push it out instead of evacuation. Evacuation can weaken the mouth of the cervix sometimes. Continue the hot water massage, leave cold drinks for now, take the ụda water too.

Sorry dear, I understand how you feel very well. E-hugs.

Good evening mama
@rosekatiej,thank God for his miracle, the lord that started the good work will bring it to a fruitful joyous end.

@zaynie,ebonychic, senior mamas,God bless Una for the detailed explanation, I really learnt a lot.

@Sassyangel,your sense of humor no be here,I wantu be like you when I grow up.

Hope we all are doing good, Kelsgal, booqee, prettyhurts( I might be wrong) haven't seen you guys post in a while. Guess you are busy and fine. Mamatwinny too


Sorry to disturb, I've been debating with myself whether to disturb you people with this,but I'm confused, don't know if its something normal or not.

Till now I'm still bleeding and recently it got very heavy, so heavy that I use up to three pads a day. Its really really depressing for me. Plus,please sabi mamas,any suggestion for pads that are good for heavy flow (very heavy) always doesn't seem to do it for me anymore, sofy too.

Please help a sister.

If the bleeding is still very heavy now, ask your doctor if you can try Tranexamic acid. I used it to stop a prolonged heavy pp bleeding and it was prescribed by a doctor.

Amen sis
I want to ask a question please... Why does it feel heavy down there when I work for like 2mins? It changes my step because my pelvis becomes really heavy and it happens alot during walks.
