Normal labour occurs when there is a single fetus in the vertex position that is delivered spontaneously through the birth canal at term with no complications for the fetus or mother. Labour is divided into three stages: the first stage from onset of labour until full cervical dilation, the second stage from full dilation until delivery of the fetus, and the third stage from delivery of the fetus until delivery of the placenta. Abnormal labour can occur if the duration of pregnancy is less than 37 weeks or more than 42 weeks, or if the duration of labour is more than 24 hours or less than 3 hours.

11. Episiotomy
. EPISIOTOMY A surgically
planned incision on the
perineum and the posterior
vaginal wall during the second
stage of labor
To enlarge the vaginal
introitus
Facilitate easy and safe
delivery of the fetus
To minimize overstretching
and rupture of the perineal
muscles and fascia
to reduce the stress and
strain on the fetal head.
