Definition of Labor
• Labor is the process of opening and thinning of the cervix
and the fetus descending into the birth canal then ends with
the expulsion of a full-term / viable baby outside the womb
followed by the expulsion of the placenta through the birth
canal or not, with assistance or without assistance.
• Labor is normal if the process occurs at full term (36-37
weeks).
• Labor begins with parturition (uterus contracting and
causing changes to the cervix).
