If the women have a regular contractions, it is the stage now when the cervix being dilated. It last until the cervix fully open. For other women it took several days but they never notice it because of the absence of painful contractions while to others it took a few minutes.

Second stage of giving birth is pushing and delivery. At this stage the cervix is fully open so that the baby will come out. In this stage, it took two hours or long before baby will come out. However, many women have either shorter or longer period of giving birth.

The last stage was delivery of placenta. After a few minutes of delivering the baby, the placenta will come next to come out. Through the help of uterine contractions it pushing down the placenta. To deliver a placenta it occurs twenty minutes or long it depends it varies on the woman who are giving birth.
