    Labor is separated into three distinct phases. The commencement of contractions indicates the first phase, and can be further dissected into two subsequent chapters: Early labor, cervical thinning and expansion; and active labor, which can be felt when the time between contractions decreases and they increase in intensity. The final portion of active labor is known as transition. Phase two is actualized ...

    During the final trimester, I've planned for an induced delivery on the 39 weeks of pregnancy. I was so excited and very much looking forward to meet my little princess, but at times I was very worried about the whole labor process. Hence, I read a lot of article with regards to labor and hoping that from there I could gain some 'experience'.

    When I was admitted, I was already 3cm     ...

    C-section – my experience. 

    Published on 13-12-2010 06:17 PM

    There are so many stories about natural labour, but very few stories about having a c-section. I’ve had two elective c-sections and I would like to share my second c-section experience which was performed in Singapore.

    After my first c-section, I really wanted to try a natural delivery. Unfortunately my baby had other ideas and did not want to come out even though I had reached the     ...

    Is It True That Subsequent Birth Are Always Easier?

    It is common remarks that people pass about subsequent birth are usually easier and faster to go through. To some extend, I believe it is true because scientifically if the cervix has been dilated before, it does not take as much effort to get it dilated again.

    However, from my experience, I had a hard time dilating during labor for my second child despite my first child was born naturally. At 37 weeks, which was qualified for full term pregnancy, my obstetrician ...

    I was 34 weeks pregnant with my first child and having an ultrasound to gauge the size of my baby. ‘Does everything look ok?’ I asked the ultrasound technician.

    ‘Everything is fine, but the baby measures quite large. Its head is about the size of a 38 week old baby,’ she replied.

    I knew my husband and I had rather large heads, but I was hoping our baby had not inherited     ...

    In this article, I’ll share my own experience of giving birth. I had a normal pregnancy, other than the fact that I had vomiting (thrice a day) till the 7th month and so I didn’t gained any weight other than the baby’s weight. My ultrasounds showed a normal healthy baby girl. Since it was my first pregnancy, I was excited and scared at the same time. I read a lot about the signs of labour so that ...
