To help a choking pregnant woman, you should first encourage her to cough to try to dislodge the obstruction. If that doesn't work, perform abdominal thrusts (formerly known as the Heimlich maneuver) with modifications for a pregnant woman. Stand behind her, placing your hands just above her belly button and give firm, upward thrusts until the object is dislodged. It's crucial to call for emergency medical help immediately if the obstruction is not cleared.
