The process of giving birth involves three stages of labor. These stages are critical for the safe delivery of the baby and the well-being of the mother. In this article, we will discuss the stages of labor in detail, and how Aashakiran IVF provides support for women during this important time.
Stage 1: Early Labor
The first stage of labor begins with the onset of regular contractions and ends when the cervix is fully dilated to 10 centimeters. During this stage, the contractions become longer, stronger, and more frequent, and the cervix begins to thin and open up.
Early labor can last for several hours or even days, and it is important for the mother to stay hydrated, rest, and stay as comfortable as possible. At Aashakiran IVF, we provide guidance on how to manage early labor, including relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and the use of pain management techniques if needed.
Stage 2: Active Labor
The second stage of labor begins when the cervix is fully dilated and ends with the delivery of the baby. During this stage, the mother will experience the urge to push as the baby moves down the birth canal. The contractions will become stronger and more intense.
At Aashakiran IVF, we provide support during active labor, including guidance on the best positions for delivery and coaching on how to push effectively. Our team of experienced doctors and nurses will monitor the mother and baby’s vital signs and provide pain management techniques to keep the mother as comfortable as possible.
Stage 3: Delivery of the Placenta
The third stage of labor begins immediately after the baby is delivered and ends with the delivery of the placenta. During this stage, the uterus will continue to contract to expel the placenta from the uterus. This stage typically lasts for a few minutes and is not as intense as the previous stages.
At Aashakiran IVF, our doctors and nurses will monitor the mother’s vital signs and ensure that the placenta is delivered safely. We provide guidance on how to breastfeed and bond with the baby immediately after delivery. The stages of labor are critical for the safe delivery of the baby and the well-being of the mother. At Aashakiran IVF, we provide support for women during labor and delivery, including guidance on pain management techniques, positioning, and breathing exercises. Our experienced team of doctors and nurses monitor the mother and baby’s vital signs and provide personalized care to ensure a safe and comfortable delivery. By providing support during labor and delivery, we help women feel confident and empowered during this important time.
