Natural Childbirth

Natural Childbirth is a physiological process during which the fetus, membranes, umbilical cord, and placenta expelled from the uterus.

There is no universal approach to the management of normal labor and delivery. Alternative management protocols addressing labor dystocia should consider as possible solutions to the high cesarean section rate. A common point of these alternate protocols is a more stringent criterion for the diagnosis of labor and a strong emphasis on providing supportive care. This precautious minimizes the possibility of unnecessary interventions in early giving birth that could be iatrogenic dystocia. Any labor-management protocol must maintain a reasonably low incidence of maternal and neonatal morbidity for it to be acceptable.
