Probably a dumb question but....

So I feel pretty dumb for asking this but I’ve been really constipated here lately and today it felt like I was ready to explode because I had to go so bad so I get to the bathroom and it wouldn’t come out so I was kinda straining cuz I was tired of waiting for it . So my question is ... can i hurt my baby if I push too hard ? I was just thinking cuz that’s what you do when you give birth ? 😂 idk I was just curious .
