Concerns & hoping for some advice!

1) I’ll prolly be going for induction of labour. Currently at 37 weeks. Reason being - baby is too big. 2) as a first time mum, I really do not know how to push a baby out. Is this something that I should worry? And will it cause a negative impact on my baby should I not know how to push the baby out?

I tried pushing for 30min and was making good progress but was feeling too weak due to lack of sleep and no food intake for more than 18hr. they called gynea in and baby was out within 15min with the help of forceps. In total spend 45min in labor. but was on epidural and didn't feel any pain. which was also the reason I couldn't really push efficiently, as I'm numb from waist down
