that’s a situation - if i understand what you mean correctly (snake coiling in a handcuff like position immobilizing or limiting the mobility of said appendages) - where i would be more concerned about me harming my baby than it harming me because i have noticed from what keepers and academic stuff have said that snakes can be surprisingly fragile in several respects, particularly slimmer ones - but to that end that’s why i think it’s important to seek out techniques used by professionals eg: nibbling or stimulating on the tail of a coiled snake can trigger it to release - may not always be possible but I am sure there are a whole variety of techniques like this that can be learned which is my goal
