Spontaneous maternal pushing may begin before or following full cervical dilatation.

Providing maternal and fetal wellbeing is maintained, and until more conclusive evidence is available, midwives are encouraged to pay attention to the rate of progress of the second stage of labour and act on signs of maternal pushing rather than being preoccupied with time limits for the second stage of labour. This second article of a three-part series explores the issues of limits on pushing and time in the second stage of labour and critically analyses the evidence available. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
