The 3 Stages of Labor, Explained

Unsure what to expect in labor? This overview of the stages of labor goes into detail to help you navigate the progression of labor.
Let's not overcomplicate this. It might seem confusing to start, but once you go over this a few times it's much easier to understand.
WHAT to EXPECT in LABOR
There are three stages of labor:
1st stage - cervix dilates from 0cm - 10cm dilated
2nd stage - pushing and crowning occur and the baby is born
3rd stage - placenta is delivered
In this video, I will dive deep into understanding the three key stages of labor that every expectant mother should be aware of. From the early labor phase to the active labor phase and finally the delivery of the placenta, each stage plays a crucial role in the process of childbirth.
Join me as I break down the progression of labor and provide valuable insights on what to expect during each stage. Whether you're a first-time mom or simply curious about the birthing process, this video is a must-watch for anyone seeking a comprehensive guide to the 3 stages of labor.
Stay informed, stay prepared, and empower yourself with the knowledge you need for a successful delivery.

3 stages of labor:
Stage 1 is the longest stage and can be broken down into early, active, and transition phases.
During early labor, contractions begin and the cervix starts to efface and dilate.
In the active phase, contractions become stronger and more frequent, leading to further dilation.
Finally, the transition phase is the most intense, as the cervix fully dilates to 10 centimeters.
Stage 2 is the pushing stage, where the cervix is fully dilated and the baby is pushed out.
This stage can last anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.
Stage 3 is the delivery of the placenta, which typically occurs within 30 minutes after the baby is born.
This stage is important to ensure that the uterus contracts and bleeding is minimized.
And that's it! The 3 stages of labor explained. Thanks for watching, and don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more informative videos.
Within the first stage there are three phases:
1. Early / latent phase (0-3cm dilated) - infrequent contractions
2. Active phase (3-7cm dilated) - contractions become longer, stronger and closer together (2-3 contractions within 10 minutes)
3. Transition (7-10cm dilated)
This video gives you an overview as to what happens throughout the process of labor.
