What is forceps delivery?

Childbirth
Delivery method

Delivery with forceps refers to a natural (vaginal) delivery with a mechanical "push".


  • Forceps are metal clamps that help the midwife or obstetrician widen the vaginal area to allow the baby's head to pass through.
  • They can save you from the surgical procedure of episiotomy, which consists of incising the perineum, or even a cesarean section.
  • Forceps are safe when used correctly, but they do require control of your vaginal walls and the baby's head.

It’s like I can’t catch a break. When I was in labor my daughter pooped in me causing me to be forced to get pitocin and an epidural, her shoulders got stuck, so they used forceps causing me to tear, she was born with jaundice, and failed her hearing test twice, and now she has colic and she’s only 3 weeks I feel so bad for her and helpless bro. It’s like one thing after the other and I’m tired of the backhanded sympathy from family ugh.
