Episode 128 - The Phases and Stages of Labor
Manage episode 354540999 series 2801592
In today’s episode, we are talking about the phases and stages of labor.
What do I mean by phases and stages? There are four main stages of labor, these are the big catagories. Then within the first STAGE of labor, there are 3 phases within that.
So I’ll start with an overview of the four main stages, then I’ll go into detail for each one.
- The first stage of labor is what most people think of when they of a person being in labor. It’s when a birthing person’s cervix dilates to 10 centimeters.
- The second stage of labor is the pushing phase.
- The third stage of labor is the delivery of the placenta, or what I call the most forgotten part of labor.
- The fourth and final stage of labor is called involution. This is when the uterus contracts back down to its pre-pregnancy size and this is the longest stage of labor as it takes about 6 weeks.
- Three phases of the first stage of labor:
- Phase 1: early labor
- Phase 2: active labor
- Phase 3: transition
