This visual shows how internal rotation (knees together feet apart) during pushing opens the outlet or bottom of pelvis during birth. This makes the widest opening to help move baby out. It also takes tension off the vulva to help reduce risk of tearing Plus hands and knees allows for movement of the pelvis so you can listen to what your body needs and tilt/rock/move accordingly.
