@dr.priyanka4: Cervical checks during labour can feel uncomfortable or scary, but a few simple techniques may help you feel more relaxed and in control. From box breathing to reverse counting on your fingertips, distraction techniques can help shift your focus away from discomfort. This is based on the concept of the Gate Control Theory of Pain, which explains how attention and other sensory inputs can influence pain perception. Remember, you deserve to feel safe, informed and respected during every examination. You can always communicate your discomfort and ask your healthcare provider to pause. Disclaimer: For general educational purposes only. Every labour experience is different. These techniques may help with coping but do not guarantee a pain-free examination. cervical check - PV examination in labour - internal examination during pregnancy - labour pain management - box breathing - Gate Control Theory of Pain - positive birth experience - labour preparation -pregnancy education - gynecologist less drpriyankagynec Aisi pitaayi sch me bhut baar ho jati hai drpriyankagynec Jinki Delivery date paas aarhi h unhe video zrur share krna#drpriyankadeswal #pregnancy #karwachauthspecial #newmom #ScreenFree
