3 . Palpate uterine fundus and confirm that uterus is contracting
4 . Keep tension on cord pulling gently while applying suprapubic counter-traction on uterus with other hand. Digital exam along the cord to determine whether the placenta is at the

5 . If placenta not delivered in 15 minutes, use oxytocin infusion
