THE FETAL SKULL Prof DR MOHD AZHAR – “NOMAL LABOUR & DELIVERY MOULDING OF THE FETAL SKULL MOULDING ’ is the ability of the fetal head to change its shape and so to adapt itself to the unyielding maternal pelvis during the progress of labour. This property is of the greatest value in the progress of labour.

23. NORMAL LABOUR AND DELIVERY Prof DR MOHD AZHAR – “NOMAL LABOUR & DELIVERY” STAGES OF LABOUR Labour can be divided into three stages , which are unequal in length. The third stage is that of separation and expulsion of placenta and membranes and also involves the control of bleeding. It begins after the birth of the baby and ends with the expulsion of the placenta and membranes. This is the shortest stage, lasting up to 30 minutes, with an average length of 5 to 10 minutes. There is no difference in duration for nulliparous and parous . The second stage of labour begins with complete dilatation of the cervix and ends with the birth of the baby. The duration is about 1 to 1½ hours in nulliparas and about 30 to 45 minutes in parous women. It begins with the onset of true labour contractions and ends when the cervix is fully dilated (10 cm). Cervical effacement and dilatation occur in the first stage First stage of labour consists of two phases:- latent and active . The first stage of labour is the longest for both nulliparous and parous women. THIRD STAGE SECOND STAGE FIRST STAGE

31. NORMAL LABOUR AND DELIVERY Prof DR MOHD AZHAR – “NOMAL LABOUR & DELIVERY” Do Uterine Contractions Affect Fetal Heart Rate? Uterine contractions can affect fetal heart rate by increasing or decreasing that rate in association with any given contraction. The three primary mechanisms by which uterine contractions can cause a decrease in fetal heart rate are compression of: · Fetal head · Umbilical cord · Uterine myometrial vessels FETAL HEART CHANGES

72. NORMAL LABOUR AND DELIVERY Prof DR MOHD AZHAR – “NOMAL LABOUR & DELIVERY” MECHANISM OF LABOUR for occiput anterior The “mechanism of labour” refers to the sequencing of events related to posturing and positioning that allows the baby to find the “easiest way out”. For a normal mechanism of labour to occur, both the fetal and maternal factors must be harmonious. DEFINITION:

Active management of the third stage of labour includes: ~ use of oxytocin ~ controlled cord traction, and ~ uterine massage .
