Natural labor may also produce stool, because when the woman's uterus is fully opened, in this case, the woman needs to use abdominal pressure to deliver the fetus from the uterus. At this time, if there is stool in the anus, then when using abdominal pressure, stool will be expelled from the anus. Therefore, when women give birth, they must discharge the stool in the anus earlier, so as to prevent pulling out the stool during childbirth, because if there is stool discharge during childbirth, it is easy to contaminate the incision of the perineum and easily cause infection of the perineum. Therefore, women should pay attention to emptying the intestinal tract before childbirth.
